That turn there at the snake is particularly tricky, regardless if you're in a car or on a bike. After having a close call there myself about 10 years ago, I always took those last 3 turns rather easy...

Woah.... that totally sucks for the bikers.

(I'm guessing they were thinking they had parked in a safe area??)

I'd be pretty pi$$ed off!!! :rant:

What a tool. That goes to show you....you can buy a car (or motorcycle) with a lot of power, but if you don't have the skills to know how to use it.....its pointless.

They're going have start calling u-tube the idiots forum

Watch the slow mo at 0:42 when he starts to skid - the front tires stay straight ahead. Absolutely zero attempt to countersteer out of it. :shakehead:

retard probably doesnt know what countersteering is...

Yeah a lot of the comments were that he didn't even attempt to counter steer, he was going to drive away, or that he was smiling when he hit the bikes or something of that sort.

I'm really iffy on anything I see these days on u-tube...

did you see the one where the girl was being pranked so she ran out her house and got run over.... FAKE....

this almost looks like it.... no attempt to countersteer, it was like he was shooting for the bikes.... just some college kids putting together a "short" for film school.... and u-tube is where they debut it.

Yeah I saw that video, was totally fake. Knew it from the beginning.

If this was fake then these kids have a lot of money to trash these bikes and car, but then again I know a lot of photographers take pictures of these places so this might be legit.

that turn is notorious for 180's though- for those who've been up mulholland...

i've been up there many, many times with my rx-8 car club. and, there's almost always someone who over powers thru that turn and does either a 180 or 360... (it's usually the teens that do it.) if they're lucky tho, they wipe out onto the right shoulder. but, i can see someone veering over to the left as well...

i usually drive within my limits, so it's never happened to me yet. but, i doubt that video is doctored, based on my personal experience with that turn on that road- which is really fun to drive, btw- assuming you keep it under control.

This is not fake. rnickymouse posts weekly vids of people crashing at the snake. There is a particular spot near the end of the snake where all the photographers hang out.

I subscribe to him on youtube...keeps me humble.
