Just cant get over this, it is the most insane thing I have ever seen :eek: .

That low-side that sends the poor fellow over the fence looks like it ended in tragedy.
 
That video pisses me off. Showing the same crash three times. If you think you're fast do a lap with Ian Hutchinson. His balls are so hard you could probably give him a boot in the nuts and he'd just laugh at you.

I agree, a lot of replayed footage. Absolutely amazing racing, though...this is the limit! I LOVE the TT...

As a good aside, Connor Cummins did survive that wreck to ride again--also amazing!
 
What amazed me was he crashed at the same corner three times!! You'd think he would have figured it out after the first crash.

LOL ;D , I really like the song that they used and the editing was well done, but I agree that they could have done without repeating so many clips that one in particular. It just bogles my mind though, the speed that they go through town. The on bike cameras really give you a feel for that.

Done in his best Caribbean Drug lord speak....

"Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity.... Insanity is... doing the same fuking thing over and over and over again.... and expecting shit to change... that is crazy..."

Reference. Fast forward to around 1: 30

Conor Cummings. He not only survived, but competed in the 2011 IoM TT

Naw, I couldn't do justice to the bravery of those men. I've been to the TT many times as a spectator but never actually raced the mountain course. Did a gazillion laps. That was the first thing you did when you got here. Check into your hotel and then do a few laps. I only raced the 4.7 mile road course at Jurby. Not the same as the mountain course. I wouldn't feel right attempting to write about TT racers. On another forum there was a thread about WW2 bomber art and the art on the jackets they wore. One guy is doing replica jackets (megga bucks). Beautiful artwork but for me its all wrong. Those guys earned those jackets and were I to wear one I would feel like a total phony poser cheat whatever you want to call it. I'd feel the same writing about the TT.
 
Don't forget to catch the new movie "Ghost Rider Does the TT" when it comes to a cinema near you.

Hoof, you can't go back to the '40's and be a bomber pilot.
You wanna know the good thing about the IoM TT? :D

Also... In reference to the photo.
"Eew, fire! Icky!"
Poor bike...

Having seen WW2 footage of what the bombers went through I don't think I'd want to go back.

I'm waiting. But I can't really think of anything bad about the TT.

Someone said you should never get on a Yamaha wearing Honda leathers.
 
...which I should add means that there's plenty of time for you to earn the right to write about the TT, my good man. I sure as hell can't, I am a professional amateur.
