392heminut Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Seems this guy didn't think out his stunt very well! Internal combustion engines need oxygen to work, and I'd bet a $100 bill the fire consumed the oxygen to the point the bike wouldn't run! http://msn.foxsports.com/home/story/Motorcycle-rider-survives-fire-stunt-gone-wrong-081013 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was t just thrown together, from what I get outta the story he was rushed from the promoter, they moved him up a hour ahead due to storms coming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shepp Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 The other issue was high winds Burning the enclosure faster then expected, and the "roof" caving in. Should have never been done with the conditions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLKSHEEP Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Sounded like he powered down right before the tunnel entrance when he realized that he couldn't see wtf he was going. I hope he's alright but some people just have a death wish. :cookoo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
