As an ex-firefighter and someone who has crashed with only a cheap jacket, full face, jeans, and boots, the gore is very accurate, not under sold or over sold.
What a great video. There are so many riders that just don't understand this until they actually crash and suffer the consequences, only then do they change. Hopefully people getting into bikes will use this to understand how important the correct gear really is.
@logical9772 good on you man. Oh and another thing - good riders recognise other good riders by the gear they wear. Because the good riders that go hard asf and are skilled, know the dangers. When you see a dude with a t shirt and jeans, you know he's a spastic
Out of all the accident videos I've watched, this is the only one that managed to scare me enough to buy safety suits and everything that protects my body. Kudos to the creator❤
In the past the TAC use to treat motorcyclists like villains and perpetrators. These days it's more instructional and informative. Well done TAC ✅ noticeable change.
They need to show this in high schools alongside the drunk driving announcements. Kids ought to know the severity of the situations they put themselves in and understand not to take stuff like this lightly.
I am a fairly new rider. Ive watched this video multiple times and have shared it with others. It reminds me to wear full gear even when its 90 degrees.
I came off a bike doing 110kph, wearing no leathers. As I was skidding across the gravel, a rock pierced my knee, entering under the kneecap and lodged itself in there. All the skin was also grinded off of the bridge of my left foot. I'd share pictures, but this comment will probably be reported for gore or something. I was in hospital for 2months and used crutches for 4months after that. Anyway, just be safe and wear leathers if you're going to climb on anything bigger than a Scooter.
I partially agree with u...Except...Scooter is like a motorcycle, except it's less powerful. It won't matter if u skid on the asphalt, because you fell off a motorcycle or a scooter.
@@krystiankowalski7335 Depend on how you ride the bike. When I used to do downhill MTB, I wore a helmet, full body gear, knee guards and some proper shoes.
@@krystiankowalski7335so what’s the difference between falling off a motorcycle or a scooter at 110k? Does scooter have higher protection or something?
Fantastic video. Applause for the realistic take on a subject that people don't want to talk about. We have states in the USA that don't even require helmets. Preposterous!
I saw a couple riding last night, the woman on the back was wearing a helmet, spaghetti strap top, jean shorts, and sandals. She must have really trusted her guy (who was properly geared up himself) one slip and shes person jelly
A hundred years ago (Yeah, I'm OLD) I think there was a campaign to make sure the pillion was properly protected. My dusty memory is showing me a teen/twenty girl in mini skirt, very little top, low heeled shoes, full make up and hair done. Rider in full leathers and go fast gear only insisting she wear the helmet. There was a gap or a cut type break as she flies off the back. Advert resumed with girl face down on a hospital bed and medical staff cleaning the wounds covering her back, legs and arms. Flashes of stuff at the scene of accident - her shoe on the road, I think a bag too... some info on screen about how long the girl would take to heal, number of skin grafts she'd have, etc. Admonishing the rider for protecting his own skin, but not protecting hers. Never let anyone get on your bike without full protection type thing. Definitely would have been pre-2000, likely NSW. We really need shock tactic road safety advertising again. SA are using actual dash & helmet cam footage in their campaigns.
I've once fallen and walked away from it without a scratch because of proper protection. Especially the knuckles on my glove showed that I could have been hurt to the bone.
I have had that very same knee injury and trust me it is quiet scary. The skin had ripped off causing a flesh wound which took months to recover and I couldn't wear trousers for a long time. Extremely painful
Greatest thing I’ve ever seen on yt as new rider at age 52. I was riding my Indian FTR at 130 mph the other day with blue jeans on!? Wtf was wrong with me? If I would of fallen I probably would of traded my Ftr for a wheelchair. Thanks, buying the best gear I can find and slow the hell down
I dont have all fingers on my left hand and when I tried to drive my sisters motorcycle i lost control driving at maybe 10km/h. Jeans and shirt got ripped, and i had some light road rash, which is wild considering I was barely moving forward. And Im sure helmet saved my life cuz as i fell my shoulder made my head snap to the side and hit concrete. I felt my eyes shake in my head. Wear gear.
I've sent this to my ex son in-law. He takes my granddaughter on the back of his electric bicycle and boasts how he got to 35mph with her on the back going down hill. He said it's safe. She has normal clothes, no coat and a cycle helmet. Where are the laws for electric bikes in the UK. Disgusting. Maybe this will show him. Please God. Thank you
This should be in every riding school on the first day, tragedy could be prevented so easily with some Kevlar pants, riding boots&gloves and a proper jacket and helmet.
I never ride without boots full lid leather jacket and proper strides hassle but well worth it I see so many riders in inappropriate gear ffs wise up! This add shoul go viral
I didnt fall on a sportbike yet, but fall on a scooter a couple of times. And on scooter you have to have helmet and gloves and thats enough for protection, because when you fall on scooter you are not forced to go with him because your legs are not locked like on sport bikes, you just leap from it on your front or back, and most damaged parts in those falls are hands and head. For sportbike i would've add foot and ankles protection because of what shown in the video.
I was on the Sunshine Coast in Australia recently and I saw so many people riding around on motorcycles and moped wearing only thongs/flip flops sneakers singlets and shorts and I the first thing that comes to my mind if the fall off is this video
When I first got my motorbike, the only gear I would wear was a helmet that was as old as me that was disintegrating and had a rotten visor, a giant hoodie, some tracksuit bottoms and filla trainers... (And some fingerless bike gloves). I ofcourse very quickly invested in all my own gear, but still wince at how I used to dress
I wish I could show my brother this and have it actually resonate with him. Ultimately, I wished he would just give up riding. He's already laid his bike down 3 times in the year or so he's been riding the first two were pretty mild just really bad road rash on his knee but the last time a month or so ago he totaled his bike, woke up in the emergency room not remembering what happened, with his face gored up really good because he didn't strap his helmet in and bad road rash all over his hand/arm. And he just picked up a new motorcycle the other day. I love him, but I don't think he is smart enough to ride.
Tac should sell their ads to other governments their that good, thanks guys for helping to keep us Aussies safe on the roads by giving us the hard message.
I can be reckless and drive without top protection (in summer we have here +32*C and more). But just ONCE i accidentally locked the kneepads in tailbox and couldnt open it. 5 mins at 40 km/h from work to home felt like eternity running naked. Wear the gear, people. AT LEAST all below your waist, your legs are the part always making first contact.
It took me one stroll on Reddit to find a video of something like this to happen to someone and just a few minutes later I was surfing the web for full protection for when I ride my motorcycle. Let’s just say the protection was worth it and I only got a light scrape instead of painting the roads red.
(birds tweeting) (engine revving) (wheels skidding) - [ Narrator] At this very moment, the rider is protected. But it only takes 0.03 seconds for the sneaker to burst. 0.6 seconds for the jeans to disintegrate. The hoodie, gone in 0.03 seconds. Then, like a human crayon, his flesh is shredded by the course bitumen. (man gasping)
Price isn't even a limiting factor. In my opinion most motorcycle gear is overpriced and not really necessary if you don't ride too fast. Besides a good helmet and gloves, I wear work shoes with steel tip and knee and elbow off-road protection over my regular clothes. It's really cheap, versatile, and saved my skin in a few low speed slides. I just say this because some people don't wear full gear because it's expensive or uncomfortable, but something light like I mentioned before is very easy to put on and off, relatively cheap, doesn't take up space, and you're better protected.
How do we get the weekend warriors in thongs, tshirts and shorts with their girlfriend on the back wearing the same to watch these? I think leaving the little and next toe on was a bit of under sell but the point remains valid. 👍
I remember being the first 'on scene' when some dickhead, riding a GSXR1000, was showing off to a group of girls, he'd never met, came off at over 100 kp/h. He was wearing sports shorts and a singlet....and a thousand dollar helmet. I could see his bones and muscles everywhere. His patella's and scapula's ground flat. Why would I wear 'everything'? Because I promised my Ma....and i'm not a dickhead.
Protection is one of the biggest things for riding but the biggest thing is to ride on a safe state. 98% of the accidents i see is a fault by the rider / driver. If you don't know how to drive / ride safe for You and the Others on the street, please stay home or go with a taxi. I drive 41 years without accident. Wait, i lie. One time i fell of my bike, i was 16 !!! But the rest of that time i have no issues with an accident result by using my 6th sense and see what will happen next or what can happen next. Always be prepared for the worst situation and you will be on a safe point. I can tell you, i never drive same a snell ! Stay safe and drive / ride with your brain on 100% and never on standby.
Huh, didn't even mention the hands and lack of gloves. Aside from having an accident, have you ever had a bee or large insect impact you at 70mph? A bee to the visor sounds and feels like being hit by a rock! I'd hate to have one hit my bare hand.
As an ex-firefighter and someone who has crashed with only a cheap jacket, full face, jeans, and boots, the gore is very accurate, not under sold or over sold.
as an ex-EMT, I can tell you I stopped riding all together from seeing the "organ donors" we shipped into the ER.
Almost under sold. Tar rips off flesh. And I see careless riders too often. Dress for the fall, not for the ride.
