View Full Version : Our bikes walk on water ally99 February 4th, 2015, 07:11 PM I just watched the MythBusters where they tried to prove that a motorcycle could skate on top of water. The rider was on a dirt bike and hydroplaned across 100ft of water 3 feet deep by keeping a fast speed and constant throttle and staying loose. Proof our bikes can do more than we ever give 'em credit for. :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMKcxN5b9sY psykown February 4th, 2015, 08:05 PM I Love It! there is a pond right around the corner be back in a few!!! NevadaWolf February 4th, 2015, 09:10 PM Here's the MythBuster version TYB7DYWI4G8 Ghostt February 4th, 2015, 10:25 PM I've seen that one, it was awesome, like the table cloth myth they did, seeing Jamie on a sport bike was weird vfnt8Sdj7cs _faLNmcAReA cuSAQX5ZeYg xFW-mm6VerE subxero February 5th, 2015, 07:01 AM Hydro skimming is bad ass but if only it were that easy. Figure that dirt bike only weighs 240lbs at most + the rear tire on a dirt bike can work more like a paddle. Even with all that being said it is not easy to pull off, even over small water holes like 10 footers :clapping: Sirref February 5th, 2015, 07:29 AM Guy Martin holds the record for longest distance doing this fZFoaNHDMok psykown February 5th, 2015, 09:30 AM Wonder if slicks were used on the front tire, That should cause the front to slide across the water easier versus trying to "roll" ontop of the water? nickjpass February 5th, 2015, 09:54 AM mythbusters is so late. so this on YouTube so many times lol ally99 February 5th, 2015, 09:59 AM mythbusters is so late. so this on YouTube so many times lol Mythbusters is just more credible than Jim Bob's video that was edited dozens of times. nickjpass February 5th, 2015, 10:08 AM This is pretty true. spooph February 5th, 2015, 02:18 PM it's amazing what you can do with enough power: PrIqh23h4nI sAubG28uODM BoBO February 5th, 2015, 05:43 PM wow I'm impressed. Ghostt February 5th, 2015, 05:46 PM Man, this why I love psychics Mass x velocity = fun Ghostt February 5th, 2015, 05:49 PM Mythbusters is just more credible than Jim Bob's video that was edited dozens of times. And way cooler, I love them all, great show, great hosts, although I miss the old reckless days of the show, Adam's eyebrows LOL |
