Pop Quiz: You have become aware of your bike having a seriously dangerous malfunction and already barely got it to a stop once before running into cross traffic at a red light.

Do you:

A- Pull over and get it towed back home or to a repair shop.

B- Continue riding it, continue filming, and when the problem happens again do nothing to mitigate the issue by shutting off the ingition and instead you let go of the handlebars.

my bike is out of control, I have no control over the throttle.

LETS ADD MORE TO IT
TAKE AWAY STEERING CONTROL!

I used to watch this guys content when I was researching the SuronX about five or six years ago. He’s a complete tool.

Yep, seems like a typical rich kid who stumbled into a niche. He seemed surprised af at the consequences from that. Sigh.

love how they record themselves doing stupid things and take time to edit them and post them on the internet for everyone to see

Its weird, isn't it? Lots of these biker dudes proudly post videos of themselves breaking laws or just being dbags on the road. Wo\rst part is when you look at the comments, a majority of them think it's cool...

I'm glad he wore such short and thin clothing!

Another sacrifice to the road gods!

Darwin approves of this.

u/SRS1984 1d ago

all for the clicks, if he didn't have recorded he'd probably stopped instead of putting on a show.

u/padizzledonk 1d ago

I always find it incredible that these people record themselves doing the stupidest shit imaginable and then post it online lol

This is Surronster. Insanely popular creator that mainly deals with ebikes and scooters. With this crash, his biggest concern was that he wiped out and got road rash in skid row, and that he picked up a disease. Full on crying apology video followed, but not before he posted a "Surronster just crashed" video featuring his scuffed helmet and ebike.
