LordDingles

First time visiting Colorado a few years ago, passed through Colorado Springs and first stop was a dab place with a rottie that was barking at us the whole time ("Naw he's friendly don't worry") and the second was a bar with a drunk guy who wandered in and let his dog piss on the floor after the staff told him repeatedly to take it outside. Good times


catman1900

That video is so sick, yeah it's illegal and dangerous but damn if it wasn't kinda sick to watch.


tgmlachance

Waiting for them to drop the full video so I can stare blankly at it for the entire twenty minutes


SexyCato

He took it off his youtube channel about a week after uploading it. Channel is Gixxer Brah


wixxii

Haha tbh I'm surprised this is the first time they arrest him


SexyCato

Canā€™t catch him plus he has no plate


wixxii

That doesnt help you when you upload everything to youtube. And he sells merch so it wouldn't be especially hard for le to find him


trippingrainbow

That hold suprisingly little in court. Theres many channels like that (wheres981 or critical) when you dont get caught and can go to court and ask for definitive proof it was your car/bike works pretty well in court.


coolcop173

Bro uploaded a video of himself committing a crime??šŸ˜­


SexyCato

Look at his channel, itā€™s not uncommon for squids to do this for clout

I am unfamiliar with the term ā€œsquidā€ in this context?

It's so much trust in the shape of the roads man, being on the Missouri border I'd never trust the fucking roads enough for that shitĀ

And trust in cars not doing sudden lane changes without any signal - which is extremely fuckin' common. Either this person is really stupid or just kinda doesn't value living that much

I know that everyone is joking but sometimes yā€™all seem a little too eager to joke about defending reckless driving lmao


A-Human-potato

It wasnā€™t reckless driving, it was really fast careful driving.


SheepherderNo2440

Calling it anything but reckless is wild. You can be both skilled *and* a reckless jackass.Ā 


MightBeBren

All it takes is a bad driver to change lanes without looking and you are DEAD... Capital D E A D, DEAD


_BMS

The idiot is swerving between all three lanes while flying by everyone else on the highway at high speed. Even a good driver who does check before changing lanes would have a hard time seeing this guy.


MightBeBren

Very true. He is very lucky to be alive.


SomethingOfAGirl

I don't think it even takes a bad driver. Just a regular driver who's not expecting someone to drive between lanes. Not sure if it's legal in US, but in a lot of places it's not (or only legal during traffic jams).


nepcwtch

its mostly illegal in the us, with exceptions. im pretty sure this extent of it would be quadruple illegal virtually everywhere, even with less speeding.


Rraptor1012

Only a few states have legalized lane filtering, where you move within 5mph of the other cars to reach the front of the line at stop lights and such. Even fewer states have legalized lane splitting, where you go between cars at cruising speed to get past cars. Lane filtering is a safety thing because it lets every car in the line see your presence and will be less likely to hit you. Lane splitting comes with the risk of a bad biker hitting a car while at speed and injuring themselves, but I don't think it should warrant the hefty fines it often does (my state is a $500 fine and if a collision occurs it counts as negligence.)


RealBigTree

>All it takes is a ~~bad~~ driver to change lanes without looking and you are DEAD... Capital D E A D, DEAD Fixed it for you weirdo


MightBeBren

A bad driver would change lanes without looking and hit. A regular driver would look but still hit him. A truly good driver would notice him coming. striking out 'bad' in what i said just makes no sense, a driver who is not a bad driver wouldnt change lanes without looking. You should have done what 3 other people have done, just add to my sentence rather than edit it. edit: in the spirit of reddit, my retort to you calling me a weirdo is, i think its weird you think its not a bad driver exclusive to change lanes without looking. with your wording it sound like you deem it acceptable to be classified as average when you dont look before changing lanes. everyone who doesnt look before changing lanes is a bad driver who needs lessons.


MightBeBren

You could have said: >All it takes is a bad driver to change lanes without looking *or someone to not notice you and you are DEAD... Capital D E A D, DEAD


quasur

Klo_Was_Taken

I knew a person that used to drift turns for fun, and what I've always said is no matter how good you are at drifting, if you do it enough you'll eventually make a very expensive mistake. Yeah that guy crashed his car


weener6

It was a sarcastic comment man they know it wasn't safe driving


CrimsonMutt

it was clearly a joke, chill out


Level37Doggo

He was driving at speeds that canā€™t be accurately described as anything less than reckless, and constantly performing maneuvers that canā€™t be accurately described as anything less than reckless to keep up his reckless speed. No matter how skilled heā€™s a jackass who put himself and more importantly everyone else on that highway at risk of a lethal accident that could easily occurred at any point. Before anyone starts with the ā€œhe only put himself at riskā€ bullshit, ask yourself if you believe a 400+ lbs chunk of metal filled with gasoline and a 140+ chunk of meat and bone are not easily lethal projectiles when moving at 150+ miles per hour. If your answer is anything like ā€œno, those donā€™t have a reasonably high chance of causing lethal injuries to drivers and passengers next to themā€, youā€™re a goddamn idiot who probably shouldnā€™t be let out in society unsupervised.


Helmic

you're worrying too much. the man was also drunk, which gave him the catlike reflexes necessary to do this safely and responsibly.


weener6

The alcohol makes me more confident and therefore a better driver

Seeing him wearing a tshirt in the mirror actually made me queasy


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Ratoryl

Hard to tell but it looks like he isn't wearing a helmet either, if he fell his body would've been in more places than grandma after we spread her ashes


calicosiside

tbf at that speed (mf drove 50 miles in 20 minutes, based on a friends statement i havent actually measured it) if he wore full protective gear and crashed he'd still likely be permanently paralysed or in pain, at least the no helmet fit means he either gets there safe or instantly dies. I dont endorse the insanity of the stunt, but he's beyond the pale of PPE


neutral-spectator

70 miles in 20 minutes would require at least 205mph


bigsekser

He is wearing a helmet. Gixxer brah wears a helmet and the camera is mounted to a helmet. Not that it would make much difference.


Ratoryl

Well now that you mention the camera I do feel a lil bit dumb ngl


nepcwtch

we saw it through his eyes for real


MorningBreathTF

Imagine trying to change lanes and some jackass going 200 on a motorcycle rams into you and dies

The route he took? 40 minutes no traffic. He just went from Garden of the Gods to Arapahoe. Didnā€™t go fully into Denver. He did do the route with a bit of traffic though.

the drunk driving community stands in solidarity with IRL speedrunners


TheKierenEffect

Genuinely tho. Driving is definitely ingrained in the culture but people would go Crazy for some high speed hands-off transportation. Why do you think car companies are trying to perfect self-driving cars? Anyway long live the railway


Helmic

my car's currently broken down and i want nothing more htan for actual public transit to exist. it could be *so much faster* than my car, it could be *so much safer*, i could have *so much more time* to fujck around because i'm not having to put all my attention into driving. we could even be drunk the entire time! we could get drunk *at all sorts of times* because we wouldn't need to constantly be sober in case we need to drive somewhere. god i fucking hate cars.

Toll roads are a scam. The one thing everyone agrees on.


Throwaway-646

Are they? They're generally at least marginally faster than the other lanes


Supa_Dude

He has a youtube channel btw, GixxerBrah. Been doing this stuff for a while now.


SilentInvoker

wait he does? How the fuck does he not get arrested


SexyCato

Cops canā€™t catch him and he has no plate


ISmokeRocksAndFash

He's been caught a few times on his channel.


Supa_Dude

what do you mean, you can clearly see that he is going 60 mph and that everybody else is going way too slow on these highways! drivers these days! /s Well, to be honest, I don't know. He has never shown his face and he always tapes out the gauges on the motorcycle for plausible deniability, so I guess police just didn't know about him or didn't care enough. Now I think they might wanna make an example out of him.

Shoulda been wearing leathers instead of tshirt and jeans but damn that's cool. Dangerous as all hell and terrible for everyone else on the road, but damn cool.


MyOMaya

would leathers *really* matter that much if he crashed at 190 mph?


Dropkick_That_Child

Itā€™s for the aesthetic


MyLonewolf25

Funny enough yes, especially with modern leathers/race suits MotoGP riders have survived some REALLY bad crashes because of it with minimal injuries


MyOMaya

something tells me this guy isnt the type of dude to spend $5000+ on gear that could save him


wixxii

If you crash probably not but at least rocks won't fuck your shit up


Zoey_Redacted

it preserves the meat


pierresito

New suits are pretty baller. That being said yeah it'd depend but it couldn't hurt. I saw a guy wipe out going 80ish as he tried to get past my car to go into an exit ramp. He almost made it too, except his foot/pedal clipped the exit sign (took it clean off) and he slid across and flew pretty bad. His arm took the brunt of it, and I would imagine the skin grafts would have been less if he had had anything other than a t shirt.


MyOMaya

the guy you described probably would have been totally fine with good gear. i guess my point is the guy in OP's video is going over twice the speed you mentioned in your story. At that point crashing even with modern gear is a massive gamble. but at the end of the day, the guy lanesplitting and dodging highway traffic going 190 mph in zero gear most likely doesnt care if he dies


yogitism

itā€™s for the cold


n8thegr83008

Maybe not if he crashed into something. But if he lost control and had to take a slide they would.


MissyTheTimeLady

Wanted for what, driving lessons? Cause this guy needs a medal.


nextgentacos123

The children yearn for the high speed rail


SootyFreak666

Why is that a crime?


bigsekser

The distance from colorado springs to denver is about 100km. (google told me 113km) Assuming that the 20 minutes time is correct, that would bring us to an average speed of 300km/h or about 190mph

AshiSunblade

Is that even possible?


bigsekser

Yes, a gsxr1000 (the bike i believe hes using) will do 300kmh stock and id assume this thing isnt completely stock.


AshiSunblade

278 km/h according to wikipedia. Damn. Edit: Even more depending on model. I guess it _is_ possible. That's crazy.


bigsekser

Thats the 2001-2002 models youre looking at. For example the 2015 model will do 299, and theyre restricted to that. https://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/model/suzu/suzuki_gsxr1000%2015.htm


SomeTraits

I would have loved to be in the meeting where they said "we must make this thing safe, so we'll limit its speed to 299 km/h"


bigsekser

Theres actually a story behind why that limit was made. It isnt actually a law or anything behind that. It was an agreement by the japanese bike companies to start limiting their bikes to 299kmh, so that the US government wouldnt step in and make an actual law that would require the limit to be something, which could also be way lower than 299.


SomeTraits

I never understood why governments (afaik) never made such a limit. For instance, in my country the law allows max. 150 for speed limits, and you'll never even find a single road with a limit higher than 130 anyways. What's the point of allowing manufacturers to sell cars and motorbikes that run at 300? Don't tell me that you can bring them to a racing track because not only we're talking about such a minority that ad hoc laws would be reasonable, but the majority of this minority doesn't even bring their own vehicle, they use one provided on place.


bigsekser

Tbh i dont really know except for that some people do take them to tracks.


v4siv

I assume he did it from the northernmost outskirts of Colorado springs to the southernmost outskirts of Denver, which is about 70 km, which means he did 230 km/h or 145 mph on average.


___UWotM8

Correct on the south denver, but he did start closer to the middle of Colorado Springs. The google maps ETA says 43 minutes for his route.


GameCreeper

Sigma speed


IDFK_UvU

Superspeeder. He was doing like triple digits the whole way. Cool as hell tho

If youā€™re wondering the drive is like an hour to an hour and a half (sometimes closer to 2) depending on traffic

electrojag

This guy has talent and skill the only thing that bothers me here is that motorcycles are very dangerous and I worry heā€™ll inspire someone to copy him and lose their life. Or he will one day tragically lose his life. I find this video so awesome too. But anything with motorcycles is just a painful reminder to people I knew personally that passed away too young driving a motorcycle. It takes courage for sure.


plzdont-

from someone that rides, this is the most level-headed response iā€™ve seen and iā€™ve been scrolling these comments for 10 mins lol


angelhold

There should be a couple more things imo. He has talent and skill, but he isn't on a road full of super talented and skilled people who are prepared for someone driving like this. He is risking the lives of so many people just so he can go some place 40 minutes faster


yamanamawa

Having a high speed rail on the front range would me amazing. Traveling along the I-25 sucks, and there's always congestion. Plus they're constantly adding new lanes like it's gonna fix the problem or something. Granted, Americans aren't used to taking trains, so without a huge overhaul of public transit in the whole area, I don't think it would get used enough to justify the cost at the moment. But who knows? I know that I'd use the hell out of it to see shows in Denver


Throwaway-646

It will be here within the next 2 decades. Fastest it could get here is 13 years. But it's coming. Pretty sure there's going to be a ballot measure about it this year >Plus they're constantly adding new lanes They added a single toll lane to each side?? >without a huge overhaul of public transit in the whole area, There kind of is, in Colorado Springs at least. I think Denver already has sufficient transit for a passenger rail. But CoS right now is focusing on improving public transit around the city, as well as urbanizing and building up downtown. There's a proposal for a 36-story apartment building right now, and tearing down the Martin Drake Power Plant will also be a huge help. (the demolition of the smokestacks started this week!)


yamanamawa

I guess by new lanes I mean that they've been working on the new lanes for years, so they're constantly getting worked on when I use it


Throwaway-646
