Three words I'd never thought I'd see together: Deliberate High Side. That demonstration is commitment to the ATGATT message!

A graphic, yet necessary illustration of how important it is to gear up. If not for you, for your loved ones.

Awesome slow mo. Although, if you really want to see a testament to what gear can do:

Link to original page on YouTube.

Apparently that crash resulted in heavy bruising. And that's it. Damn lucky guy. I want his back protector.

Wow, guy should be held criminally responsible for pushing you like that. Seriously, he could have killed you. Now I understand why you carry ammo when you ride.

lol i filed a police report when i was clear headed..cops actually drove by right before..so it was interesting, one officer said he saw me go down in the rear view but didn't see the occurrence, but i had to turn over my SD card...clear shot of dudes face, drivers face and car make/model and plate...along with me yelling " ehh!! wtf!!" then "dammit" as i made my choice for F150 or ditch as i was in other lane recovering, which it was too late.

i gotta say, my icon chest.back protector def helped as well..it was pretty trashed and it was under my kevlar shirt and vest....

proper gear is a must. for sure.
