I ran across this and my chest hurts just watching it.

OOPHA... I'm hoping that was his glove, and not his whole HAND that flew off there....

 

[Herz]

Ouch, I remember that video from TV.

If I remember the story right, It didnt impact his chest, It flew out the side and ripped him in the middle of his forearm. According to the story he was fine.Way his reaction is does make it seem like it's a chest shot.

Hurt like a ***** I bet
Glad he still has his fap hand

That was a GSXR 750 running nitrous. The rider wasn't hit in the chest. But the piston did remove his hand.

It was Brock Davidson of Brock's Performance. He didn't lose his hand.

EDIT: Same incident, different angle: http://www.brockracing.com/media/brockatco_NEW.wmv
You can see he has both hands at the end of it. Pretty sure it was an intake explosion that was nitrous related, not a piston coming out Still a crazy vid though.

OUCH

 

[Bigham]

He flew all the way up in the air and got hit by an airplane and it knocked his shoe off. I saw the whole thing.

 

[svsRyanC]

not only do we have to worry about getting hit by idiots in mini vans but now we gotta worry about our own pistons attacking us! anyways i know i probly sound like an idiot and yes i also admit to that titile but how do i start a new thread? i cant seem to figure it out or find it in the FAQs. probly because its so easy they don't need to put it in the FAQs

well the good thing about our bikes is that the piston would have to make it through the gas tank first. Then it would probably behead you.

Now I feel safer.

What phenomenal camera work.

 

[Mudsurfer1234]

The rear piston is aimed right at our balls though... if that one blows...

 

[jdewkilla]

Holy crap!! where does the rear cylinder on my SV point again??

Surely, the explosion would redirect the piston out of harm's way.

 

[phox]

Dang, that looks painful no matter what it is!

the explosion of your nutsack maybe

 

[Vici]

What phenomenal camera work.

I wish that just once somebody wouldn't drop the camera and film their shoes when cool chit like that happens. I swear if I ever film something blowing up I'm rolling the entire time.

Nothing can stop that explosion.

The rear piston would nut-shot us.
