This is how they train in iowa. Bo send the boys out the the highway next to memorial. We need to toughen up for the big 10.

Wow! The guy is lucky to be alive. And incredibly lucky he wasn't hurt. The old man turned his SUV right into the bike for a head on collision.

did you see his sandal fly in the air? i question the intelligence of a person riding a 2 wheeled vehicle with sandals on. pretty sweet flip tho. i give it 8.5, he really needed to stick that landing.

No helmet or protective gear...yeah I guess you could say he's lucky.

It kinda looked like he had a half helmet on, and it came off when he landed. Or maybe it was just a ball cap. Hard to tell from the video.
Helmet or no, he was incredibly lucky not to get injured.
