Oh Crap! That had to hurt.

Were any ramps harmed in the filming of that video? Won't anybody think of the ramps?!

Believe it or not, he limped away from that one with just a really bad cut to his leg.

So he should sue the bike manufacturer ... that'd be the American thing to do.

Oh yes, sue the bike company, but also...

The car company for making a van that can't accelerate fast enough.

The city for allowing buildings to be built at that specific height, and at that specific distance from the curb.

The onlookers for any pain and suffering from certain peer pressure.

And himself of course. Definitely a restraining order to keep himself away from himself at a distance of 500 ft. at all times.

I actually saw that on one of those "Crazy Stunts Part 4!!!!" TV shows, and he said that he's going to try it again some other time because he's sure that he can make it lol.

This guy's a shoe-in for a Darwin award.

After watching Jackass, that just isn't anything. I want to see the guy do it while holding an aligator and wearing a Speedo.

The guy in the van stole the wallet of the guy on the bike so he chases the van, only to find a ramp the guy in the van left in the road as an obstacle so he could get away.
