Bowling for Bikes (RiverOtter - must see)

😱 how horrible! Why do people put themselves at such risk?:idontno:

😱 Those dudes got Roethlisbergered!

not at all. They were not injured. Those guys have carbon fiber turtle shell padding on the backs, carbon fiber padding on all major joints, including the knuckles and ankles, full face helmets, etc (Rothlesberg had nothing, not even a helmet). Also, they know they will crash in at least one race someday, so they are well trained on how to fall. Did you notice the flipper with his arms tucked to the center mass of his body to prevent dislocation of the joints?

These guys are pros and most of them would have jumped on their bikes to continue racing if their bikes were still operable.
