    The late Doug Domokos - riding a Kawasaki KX2 motocross bike on one wheel right across the Sydney Harbour Bridge in Australia.
    Nicknamed “The Wheelie King,” Domokos was down under for the 1980 Coca-cola Superbowl of Supercross.
    The bridge stunt, which was performed during peak hour traffic in Sydney, was a promotion for the coming event on 19 April 1980.
    Domokos was so good he forged a professional career as a stunt motorcyclist, performing right across the world. He went on to hold held many world records, including the World’s Longest Wheelie and the World’s Tallest Wheelie.
    In 1984 he made it into the Guinness Book of World Records with his 145 mile long wheelie at Talladega Speedway, a record that would stand for over 8 years. Then later he mono wheeled 5 circles on the roof of the Empire State Building.
    Sadly, on 26 November 2000, Domokos died at age 44 in an ultralight aircraft accident. The accident happened in Murrieta, California. Doug Domokos and his fiancée had one son, Nikolas.
