Glad he's not seriously hurt. Credit to the marshals for getting flags going in a blink, and to the rider following for managing to avoid getting caught up in the accident.
I’ve had some crashes over the last 40 years, never when I was flying balls out at speeds for which I should’ve been jailed, but always at tricycle speeds just enough to break some bones and make life miserable. Now almost age 53 I just stare at my bike all shiny in the garage, and this only helped reinforce my current situation. Glad this guy is ok.
Don't feel bad Doc,my Father taught me how to ride at age 12, I am now 61 { on the wifes computer} I have 2bikes in the house with me. I know my time is up but I can't seem to sell because I do not want anyone to get hurt,accept for a brother all my friends are dead.
High sides can happen so fast. I've had the same exact wreck. I was on the ground before I even realized the rear was getting loose. Makes me really appreciate the Moto riders that are able to save a high side!
I hope the rider Is ok and thank you for the very good prompt action by the Marshalls.. For the information of the viewers the Classic TT is held on the wonderful and challenging "Billown Circuit" not the wonderful and Legendary "TT" course.
Throwing red flags is not up to the marshals to decide. They relay the severity of the incident to race control via radio. Then race control will order the red flag, so every marshals' post shows the red flag at the same time. "Rogue" red flags have killed riders in the past.
Oof, that came out of nowhere. I actually thought they looked a bit slow to crash, but I guess they really were putting some thrust through these old warriors and their skinny pram tyres. Kudos for riding them, not keeping them in a glass case!
Glad he is OK...good trusting work by the marshalls...thank you chaps and lases...without your help.. what could we do.. Not a lot..So thank you all.👍🇬🇧 Simon a brit 🇬🇧 in Spain 🇪🇦
Backin it in on a old Honda , often or not ends in tears ! all Joking aside , great work by the Marshals , great decisions and most of all rider ok ...though the wall may have a headache in the morning,,!
The rider was already out of the groove before they entered the viewing angle. Thankfully it was a slow section and escaped serious injuries. I wonder what the pucker factor was.
It's a pity the camera angle didn't show a bit more of the corner entry too. I agree with you, he seemed to appear in shot, way faster than everyone else.
@@SongJLikes On a superbike with wide sticky tyers no problem or indeed on any modern sports bike on good road tyers, but I am not sure of the capability of those older bikes with their narrow tyers.
@@gerrywhelan5761 - I see your point, definitely trickier on older machinery…. But I would certainly think that they would be riding more than capable motorcycles…. I feel like the rider here would be the first one to admit he made a technical error… but I don’t know if “too fast” covers the totality of it.
That was not the TT. There too many riders too close together. They start at 10 second intervals, only a few riders are capable of making up that time.
Glad rider is ok. I pretty sure he thought bike was going wide and OVER CORRECTED and/or to much front brake. That skid mark in pavement is the front tire. If you watch closely front wheel is turned in way to much for curve.
Glad the rider is ok. I’m new to motorbikes. What do people think was the cause of the accident? Looked like he was losing the back end when he came into shot. Was he applying too much rear brake into the corner?
Glad the news here is that the rider is out of hospital already. I'm always looking for tips on how to stay upright so watched this at quarter speed but was unsure if the skid was due to rear breaking in the corner so came to the comments.. Learnt a new phrase 'highside' so that's useful.
@@Ben-qz4gh Possibly but someone else said they were carrying to much speed into the corner. That would be my guess. The rear end had already come around as soon as it enters the frame. I think you are right they are off throttle. I just think the rear end was coming around cause they were trying to get stopped. It might have locked up but I'm not sure either way. I just don't think it was the cause.
@@Ben-qz4gh After rewatching it. I didn't think it was that bad of a highside but it looks like the rider ended up between the bike and the wall. I hope whoever it is is okay. To me that's when it looks like the rider may have really gotten hurt.
Hope he makes a full recovery & is back racing soon. On a plus note he can always look on here for tips on how to corner & not highside (whatever one of them is 😉) Props to the marshal's too outstanding job well done.
I'm sure I recognise the lady waving the flags... Is/was she a racer? I think I saw an interview with her a few years ago about racing at the smaller irish road races.

The rider is OK and was released from hospital custody according to his family yesterday. Great job by the corner workers and marshals!
Thank you for the update!
Amen!
Glad to hear he is ok.
Thanks for the heads up. Because that looked a really bad one. Watching the previous riders I was expecting a low side with a walk away.
Mann teavee!! Nice work all round! Glad he's ok 👍👍
As a racer myself we would not be able to do the sport without all you marshal's a big THANK YOU
There's no racing without marshals. The quiet hero's of motor racing.
Hope he’s ok, bloody great job the marshals there.
Just goes to show even a low speed, high-side can catch you out and still bloody hurts.
Glad he’s ok. The Marshalls are on it!
Glad he's not seriously hurt.
Credit to the marshals for getting flags going in a blink, and to the rider following for managing to avoid getting caught up in the accident.
Thank God for our Marshall's, you all do an amazing job during the TT races, speedy recovery to the rider, God bless.

Bet you didn’t crash like this spaz though. This will be the reason soon you won’t be able to ride these courses

@@michellepatrick5175 did all your friends die from motorcycles?
@@michaelric3540 No
@@michellepatrick5175 oh. Well sorry anyhow.
I'm glad the rider's ok. What a sound from those engines, marvellous.
Bloody hell. That was a wicked high side. So glad he’s ok.
Watching previous riders I was expecting a harmless low side. Not that, looked really nasty and I am glad the guy is OK.
The marshals did a pretty nice job switching from YF to RF in a blink of an eye. Nice done!
That was a strange one as he didnt seem to be carrying too much speed,glad the riders ok 👍.
looked like an older machine.
High sides can happen so fast. I've had the same exact wreck. I was on the ground before I even realized the rear was getting loose. Makes me really appreciate the Moto riders that are able to save a high side!
Glad the guys ok and like people have said Marshall’s out standing there
Wishing him a speedy recovery and never stop riding!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Glad the rider was ok. Brilliant Marshalling and response as always 👏👏👏

Thanks for this information, I really didn't know that!
Wow they were on their marks! Glad he’s ok wow high side with the bike attacking him against that curb.
Stay at it homie, glad to hear you're all good. Ride on
Very quick decision by the marshals to red flag the race, great work hopefully the Rider is ok.

good work
Very very dangerous sport. If I ride a bike & had any sort of crash. I would be too scared to go back on a bike again 🙀🤔😭
Woopsie Daisy!!! Lol
Glad he is OK. It looks like he already lost the rear end when he came into the video.
thank god for the marshals orange army 🧡🧡
Glad he's OK. Great job on the Marshall's!
Good work by marshals. Godspeed recovery to the crash-dude!
Great marshalling.
Unlucky hope he's OK. Well done Marshalls 👏 ❤️🇬🇧❤️
Great work by the marshals. Hoping the rider is ok, but I have to say, the sound of those bikes is fantastic!
They are!
Whoa
Glad he is OK...good trusting work by the marshalls...thank you chaps and lases...without your help.. what could we do..
Not a lot..So thank you all.👍🇬🇧 Simon a brit 🇬🇧 in Spain 🇪🇦
Well said
👏👏👏
Did he lock up the front brakes or something?
So they train first on a low cc motorcycle before going to a super big bikes?
bike looked like Seeley G-50!
MANN teavee
Good recovery!
can someone tell me why he crashed ? what was he doing wrong?
Good Marshaling
Backin it in on a old Honda , often or not ends in tears ! all Joking aside , great work by the Marshals , great decisions and most of all rider ok ...though the wall may have a headache in the morning,,!
The other rider just flew by ...omg
Do you think he/she should have stopped & offered assistance ?
Yes, he made no attempt to slow down, considering the crashed bike could have swerved in front of him.
Hey lady, great flag work.
💫👍
slow down there, Valentino
Probably a lolly worm just crossing at that moment (aka Barry Sheena 1982) 😦
The rider was already out of the groove before they entered the viewing angle. Thankfully it was a slow section and escaped serious injuries. I wonder what the pucker factor was.
Forgive my ignornace but it didn't look that bad with all that gear on. Was he an older person?
Can you imagine a unprotected wall in Moto GP racing.
🙏
Done this….but on track
Glad to see people on the Isle of Mann are into skinny jeans.
lol
RIP. David 1978-2022
Hope the rider was OK 🤞🙏
Yep, he definitely has more speed than the others at that turn!
It's a pity the camera angle didn't show a bit more of the corner entry too. I agree with you, he seemed to appear in shot, way faster than everyone else.
I dunno…. Call me crazy, but he should have been able to get through that corner at that speed… just high-sided it.
I'm guessing he came in hot and was hard in the brakes the way the ass end stepped out so hard

I’m 65, I’ve never been on a motorcycle in my life, simply they scare the life out of me.
Respect to all, it takes nerve to participate in the TT.
@@adrenalinejunkie3828 Agree, never too old to enjoy a bike IMO
Photographer in the back is probably quite frustrated/annoyed with himself not getting the shot... :)
He was just trying to slow down for that speed limit...
That was not the TT. There too many riders too close together. They start at 10 second intervals, only a few riders are capable of making up that time.
Cominciamo bene!

God even though I was looking for the accident it still made me jump 😵 glad he's OK 👍
Almost made it with the classic foot on peg flat track maneuver .. ,,,
TT 22? What bikes are there? Looks old.
Opā
Glad the riders ok. Great work from the marshals.
Superstock??
RIP Maddy
A bit too much speed for this older tipe of bike and the bike got nervous. I hope he will be back on his feet and bike fast.
Hope he's OK.. didn't know Dame Judi Dench was a marshall this year...!
LOL
Glad he’s okay. That was a hard kiss to the chin, it looked like.
good job marshalls thank you for keeping the riders safe! that was one vicious high side! i wonder if air vests are allowed on the TT?
Tank slap?
The road gremlins strike again.
SPAZ
Yes, yes you are
@@soilentgreen7 you got a stutter
There is not enough money anywhere to get me to race there.
Prayers for recovery. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank photographer is in a dangerous place.:-(
MANN teavee
Thanks for that 👍
Damn. A speedy recovery to the rider
😮🥺
Glad the rider is ok. I’m new to motorbikes. What do people think was the cause of the accident? Looked like he was losing the back end when he came into shot. Was he applying too much rear brake into the corner?
Kinda looked like he leaned and angled way more into that corner than he needed to. Could be because his rear tire slid out though.
School house corner?
Marshalls for the win!
How'd that happen, seemed to enter the corner same as the guys in front, did the tyre fail 🤔
On the power too early

Looks like he was coming it a little to fast.
Hope the rider is okay
Take it easy chaps. We all know the danger but I hate seeing this. Glad he was OK as it wasn't a big(ger) tumble.
Just goes to show you don't need to kane it around corners to highside. So pleased he's OK. Could've been alot worse. The marshals are fantastic. ❤
That’s a strange one hope rider ok and can carry on 👍
Actually that's the most common one in road racing, it's called a Highside. Too much throttle on a corner causes it every time.
@@rebelrog looked like the back end came around off throttle so almost like the rear locked up
I think it was too much speed into the corner also.

damn thankfully not high speed
He looked like he was going faster than 40 .
You cracked me up!
Feck! High side and then the bike mangles him.
Looks like that wee bike locked up. Rider didn't seem to do anything wrong
Hope he makes a full recovery & is back racing soon. On a plus note he can always look on here for tips on how to corner & not highside (whatever one of them is 😉) Props to the marshal's too outstanding job well done.
Thats great to hear he is ok
Why use old bike?.
I'm sure I recognise the lady waving the flags... Is/was she a racer? I think I saw an interview with her a few years ago about racing at the smaller irish road races.
ElMuelio, I think you're right, as soon as I saw her I thought the same.
@@benhemmings3852 I wracked my brain for a bit and I think she was on that road racing series on BBC3
Honestly, she looks like Judy Dench.
Yes mate that was it.
