The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

I saw this, and the whole time I'm thinking "Hopefully that engine stays running".
It is crazy, but it is pretty cool.  :good:

Great video thanks for posting. I think the out takes would be much more entertaining. Mythbusters tried this with a dirt bike a few years ago and went pretty far across a pond before they sank. The bike had knobby tires and no skis. I thought with a paddle rear tire they might have made it.  Dave  https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=mythbusters+motorcycle+on+water
A pistol is like a parachute, if you need one and don't have one you will never need one again.

 They finally found another use for those paddle tires!! I wonder how many times they had to flush the bike! That was pretty trick, thanks for sharing.
