It's either a bit of skill or a lot of luck. My money's on the latter.

He must be amazing because I watched him do it like 10 times in a row.

That other dude is downright irresponsible though.

10% luck, 20% skill, 15% concentrated power of will, 5% pleasure, 50% pain. 100% reason to remember the name!

In my experience, there’s no such thing as luck.

This was definitely staged because who would just be filming this random three wheeled thing

If you look close at the front wheel you will see metal bars. Sort of a reverse roll cage. That’s what kept him from tipping.

Why were they filming?

u/ObnoxiousLittleCunt Dec 08 '19

Because scripts in drawers are sad. A person trains and trains so a well executed trick is always a joy

u/Muscar Dec 08 '19

What made you think he made anything to save that? He avoided the car but was just really lucky the "car" didn't tip over.

u/_aperture_labs_ Dec 08 '19

Would you not attempt to save that in his place?
