He's both skillful and lucky.  In the end, that sort of luck runs out eventually, and he will select himself out of the species.

I don't know if I have words enough to describe what I think of this video, but it IS spell-binding to watch, to see what else he going to try.

That was like watching a video game walk through on You-Tube of a gamer that figured out all the right moves to win that level. The next level is gonna be a real bastard..... :scratch_one-s_head:

Reminds me of my late 80s commute to work on the 91! Broken mirrors, mine and the cars. I was stupid but nothing even close to that guy. Karma caught up to me on my ride home one day less than a mile from home when a gravel patch on a left hander had me sliding downhill for 50+ ft WITHOUT proper riding gear! I didn't ride again for about 8 years, well, pavement riding at least. You can tempt fate, walk that thin line, but sooner or later you pay and some times it's a bitch.
It's what you hold in your heart that's important, not what's in your hand, well, unless it the THROTTLE!!

I don't know if I should praise him for his great skill and mastery, or bash him for driving like an idiot.

either way, can you imagine how long this commute would take in a car?

There's always a very fine line between genius and insanity.
