Motorcycle crash, hits a semi at 120 plus

Post by SuperSport »

There are pics of the guy in this link at snopes, it is kinda gruesome so if ya get quesy easily you might not want to go here.

This guy was riding at 120 plus and ran into the back of a semi....his helmet and head got stuck in the back of the trailer and he got drug about a mile. The driver was suspicious of something happening after hearing a noise and some bike parts went flying by him.

On this stetch of highway apparantly some sport bike guys get a little crazy. A friend of this rider died on the same stretch of highway a week earlier going 120 plus and crashing. According to the article a friend of the rider in these pics crashed on the same highway at high speed 5 days after attending the pictured deceased rider's funeral .

Here is the link-

I got these pics about 6 months ago and and some not posted and you dont want to see I cant name any names but they were from a genuine source and they are for sure real...just notice how the crashbar on the rear of the trailer is pushed in.

maybe he did and didnt care. might have been depressed about his friend and wanted to end it himself.
i agree...even at 100+ i can allways see whats comin up infront of me...even at night so who knows what the guy was thinkin.
