We’ll give props to this Russian motorcyclist for being aware that a car was on course to cut him off, but we’ll also give him a big thumbs down for not wearing a safety helmet – maybe this accident will teach him a lesson.
The rider saw that a Hyundai hatch was about to enter his lane and in a split second, he lifted his knees up and prepared for impact – don’t be alarmed, there’s nothing gross about this video as he made it out alive and well, thanks to a bit of luck on his behalf.
We can’t see how he fell down to the ground, but if we were to guess, we’d say he somehow landed on his filled backpack, which would not only have softened the fall, but would also protect his head from hitting the ground first, thus allowing him to escape uninjured. At least that’s our explanation. See the video after the jump.
