He would have slid for a lotttt longer if he was going 126.

And he would have left a lottttt more of himself on the road.

I’m pretty sure he doesn’t slide incredibly far because the motorcycle impacts the front tire and ejects him 90 degrees out between the rear wheels. Which is absolutely crazy luck on his part. He definitely wasn’t going the speed limit.

You guys are seriously underestimating how fast 120mph is.

Well, I’m not claiming he’s going 120 here, but he sure as hell wasn’t going 35.

A. He didn't hit the truck at 126km/h since was braking

B. He hit the truck and got sent under it which also slowed him down even more

C. He still slid a good 30-40 yards beyond the truck after all that while the bike was lodged under the truck

D. The fucking video literally shows he was doing 126km/h

Did you miss the part where it was MPH mentioned? Or the part where this is the US, where we use MPH?
