Yes, this sport is the definition of insane. The highest ever speed on one of these bikes were 362,4kph/226,5mph. With its 290 HorsePower engine and minimum weight of 160kg/350lbs the Power/weight ratio is incredible. The 1-1.8 Power/weight ratio and almost none protection, there is ofcourse deaths. The most recent was a 17year old at the Italian GP last year.
I would not say almost no protection, infact the helmets past the most rigorous testing for safety in the world, they have to pass the EU, Japan or DOT standards first, then go through an even more rigorous testing standard, and then the suits are multilayered leather with the hump for neck and back protection plus the airbag systems which can be deployed 2 times each (2 crashes or twice in bad multistage crashes)
@@RiordanOwens the hump isnt really for protection, its mainly for aerodynamics and contains the drinking bottle. In fact its more or less bad for the neck if you lay on the back
Adam have you ever seen the Isle of Man TT motorcycle race? if you haven't: all these crashes happen on a track. imagine them happening on public streets in residential neighborhoods!
Adam will literally shit himself.....which I think we all do no matter how many times you watch Isle of man TT.....I don't know what else to add to that lol
100% boss fight video... over 250-something deaths since it's first race... five this year. It is by far the most insane race in the world and has the most insane crashes
As someone who does amateur moto gp racing and been in my fare share of accidents the reason people look like they flail around is you're taught to relax all you muscles when you slide. When you tense up you are more likely to break bones. Thats why when drunk drivers are in bad accidents they tend to survive because they are very relaxed and loose.
Marc Marquez actually had a high-side this past weekend and it was one of the biggest I've seen. Got vision problems from the impact, dangerous sport this is its crazy
@@thekamikaze789 he got simillar injury when he crashed on motocross training about 6 months ago, that same injury started back in 2011 when he mised all the remaining races and had to go to operation
Been on motorcycles literally ALL my life... from when I was a baby, and my parents would take me out on night rides to get me to shut up and go to sleep... haha... A proper layer of full-grain leather will take a slide at 100 mph for up to 8 to 12 seconds on asphalt... Then the stuff gets "studs" of steel or carbon fiber, and armor inserts to help the jacket conform to the torso, and the legs support the long bones and hips and knees. Boots get ankle braces and ANSI equivalent to old-school steel toes... ALL this has a fair degree of padding inside anyway, with vents tailored in so air can flow to keep riders as cool as is feasible under the conditions, while avoiding "ballooning"... If you look close to the riders' backs, you can see the shell addition that lines up with the rear of the helmet... AND yes, there's such a thing as a neck protector, which adds a layer of material between the shoulders and helmet with between 1/8 and 1/4 inch (3 to 6 mm) of space so you can still turn your head easily, but so that landing on your head won't necessarily crush your cervical vertebrae out of existence... Finally, a recent development/upgrade is the "airbag system" which generally comes with a lanyard attaching the rider to the bike, itself. If for any reason, the rider is separated from the bike such that the lanyard is pulled beyond its limit, the airbag actuates, which takes about 5 milliseconds... Adding yet another layer of impact protection... AND for those "seasoned" at racing and riding extremes, YES, there is a procedure. More or less, it involves tightening your fists next to your head OR grabbing the neck protector or flaps on your "jacket" (quotes since racing leathers are often one-piece units), and trying mostly to just keep your legs slightly bent and springy. You're GOING to hit the ground hard, especially from a "high side" (the most violent crash other than slamming directly into another bike), so trying to "stiff leg" is only going to break stuff, and mostly YOU... BUT what happens is usually a bit more akin to the fetal position, which is actually one of the most resilient poses the human body can assume... BTW... A "low side" is when you take a curve too aggressively or hit the brakes mid-turn too hard, and the wheels just lose traction, dropping you and the bike on the ground... It's actually relatively easy to deal with. In street riding, it's the preferred incident to have to deal with if you have any choice in the matter. A "high side" is when you start to lose traction (usually in a curve) but somehow regain it. Invariably, this violently yanks the bike under you back to a full upright position, and catapults the rider into the air. Other than driving directly into someone else, it's THE most violent way to fall off a motorcycle... pretty much anywhere, and is the dread of every rider on any machine. Relax and breathe... Just since my riding career started (some 30 years ago or so) gear has come a LONG way. Full facial helmets prevent smashing your face into the pavement or tarmac and grinding significant chunks out of it with every roll as you careen down the road without the bike. Synthetic materials are coming along quite well, though they still only tend to hold up to 6 to 8 seconds of 100 mph slide... BUT the core lesson to learn is that "It's not gear if it's not armor." I LOVE to ride. I think I'd rather ride than breathe... BUT it's (admittedly) not for everyone. When taking up a motorcycle, you have to do your own risk assessment, and then accept that there are consequences for the sport, even if you don't race. It also comes with a pretty steep learning curve in the beginning, but it's highly rewarding and probably the best feeling in the world... aside from MAYBE flying. ;o)
@@g-moneyrides8341 Thanks for the update... I'd heard (years ago) they were in development, but I didn't want to get "too sci-fi" since I hadn't really been tracking everything down... I know there are improvements since I used to race (90's) but without being actively in the sport, it's hard to be sure of everything... ;o)
The riders when they have highsides are fine, the suits they wear have airbags that blow up when they hit the ground. Though they do not prevent broken bones, they make riding safer.
If you play soccer you know what it feels to running nonstop for at least one hour, soccer player tent to rolling around in pain is because he is in pain can you imagine after running for an hour and then somebody wacked your legs doesn't matter if its hard or not, after losing your stamina you cant always running 24/7 they need to catch a breath every once in a while, diving/rolling around is also a perfect time to catch a breath
The ones where the rider get's launched off the bike are called highsides. The rear tire loses traction during a corner, it slides sideways but then shortly after it regains grip. This instantly pulls the rear tire in line with the front (because of the gyroscopic effect of a bike). This happens with such a force the rider is flung off the bike. Good thing they have airbags in their leather suits... Next video Isle of Man TT? :)
Since you would like to know how a highside accident occurs, I shall enlighten you. In a corner, the rider will intentionally slide the rear of the bike to help rotate quicker. However if the rider doesn't commit fully and steers too lightly, it will cause the rear tyre to lose grip for a split second and then violently regain it, causing the bike to take off suddenly. So basically, the rear tyre starts sliding and snaps, making the bike move violently to the opposite side and creating a "bucking" effect
the suits have airbags in them aswell as back protectors and the riders wear a chest protector. im surprised the red bull ring crash wasnt in this compilation. its one of the scariest ive ever seen, even worse than when simoncelli died.
This is the greatest sport on earth. MotoGP has the most talented athletes known to mankind. I would highly recommend picking it up. Crashes do happen and few are serious but the racing is beyond anything else by a mile!
4:49 it's to protect their arms, when they crashed especially barrel rolling, it's to minimize the probability of their arms getting broken - the last time the sport took a life of a rider was last year, from Moto3 class, a Swiss Moto3 rider named Jason Dupasquier (19yo), crashed in qualifying and sustained a fatal injury -and from another championship (WorldSSP), in supersport 300 class, a Spain rider named Dean Berta Vinales (15yo), the cousins of MotoGP rider Maverick "Top Gun" Vinales, also passed away due to head injury and thorasic injury because of the crash
6:49 what happened there was a highsider. A highsider happens when the rear tire loses traction and starts sliding. Eventually the rear tire gets grip again wich causes the suspension to compress. At a certain point the bike will start to get back up wich leads to less force in to the suspension. And when the suspension decompresses you'll get thrown up in the air and there is nothing you can do except to prepare for the impact
The worst are what's called a high side crash. Its when your lose grip on the back then as the bike rotates around the back tire gets grip and it launches you forward off the bike. The thing about a high side is its not just a crash it can be considered a fall from hight.
Hello from Edmonton Alberta Canada. The suits the riders ware are full body armour suits. There is CarbonFibre pads inside them. These riders have learned the physical ways to protect themselves after coming off their bike.... PS- You are super funny. I think you have the best channel/reaction series on youtube.
Sadly, the danger of the sport isn't in the pro levels, it's in the amateur levels. A bunch of kids died in the last couple of years, because they don't know how to prepare for a crash.
Question: do some riders have an airbag system? Because it looks like some of the suits puff up slightly like there is a system? Just curious, still super risky and definitely enjoy watching much better riders than me compete!
These highsides are very nasty, the rear wheel looses grip, the bike slips on the ground, suddendly the rear gets the grip back and you go into the air and lands hard. Thats makes these accidents so dangerous. But the protection suite is incredible. The leather is the best you can buy, and with the airbag some pilots walks away even after a 300+ crash
The advancements in protection technology during the past two decades is the reason why most riders are able to walk away after crashes like those, just to give you guys an idea as to what riders actually wear: 1. A one piece leather suit with padded shock absorbers and other protectors 2. A back protector for the spine 3. Two chest protectors 4.Metal/leather gloves 5.Leather boots 6. Helmet but not just any helmet, its has to follow FIM regulations 7. An integrated airbag system which activates at the time of the accident literally in milliseconds All this weighs about 15-20kg .
The Isle of man TT is by far the most impressive spectical on this planet. If you want to see the most insane thing a person can do on a motorcycle, you need to check it out! It's basically maximum speed racing on actual public streets rather than a dedicated race track. However, it's also the most extreme when it comes to crashes as the sheer number of fatalities at that race is insane. Since the first race back in 1907, there has been around 255 deaths. So I would maybe shy away from some of the wreck videos if you are at all uncomfortable with watching fatal incidents... The best video I have ever seen about the Isle of man TT is from a channel called face085. The video is called Isle of Man TT - The greatest show on earth! (Quick disclaimer, the video has quite a bit of music in it and I have no idea if it's copyrighted or not.) There is also a really cool video where a doctor who works at the Isle of man TT gives a seminar/documtery of his experiances. It is quite a long video at 44 minutes, but if your at all interested then I would give it a go! The video is from the channel Lockk9 TT Racing. The video is called Flying⚡Doctor ~R.I.P.~ Dr.✜John☘Hinds✔ ✅ . The_Fastest Road Racing Doctor.
MotoGP bikes can reach 220mph+/Moto2 about 180mph+/Moto3 155mph+ The suits blow up and add some padding as soon as the rider leaves the bikes. So they get a little more protection.
Not sure how many people know but the suits they wear couldn’t be any more safer while they probably could but the suits themselves are stupidly safe and they have like a built-in airbag thing into it, and their helmets are stupidly safe. I’m pretty sure one of the most dangerous things is the bike landing back on the person.
1:03 That’s Jorge Martin breaking 8 bones from being tossed around like a rag doll after clipping the gravel. I remember watching that one live. Scared the hell out of me :( He’s doing much better now, though!
The suits definitely don’t make the impact any less painful. It may help slightly, but it’s mainly designed to slide. A slide is probably best case scenario. Tumbling hurts.
Motogp has a top speed around 360kmp hour ofcourse coroners are significantly slower but they still go crazy fast. The suites they are wearing have an airbag build in it which I believe blows up instantly if the driver loses contact with the bike.
High side is the worst....that's when the bike throws you off....neither is fun, but I think I can speak for the pros when I say......" I rather slide then get thrown off". Love the channel and somehow it said I wasn't subscribed......I was, now i am again
Fact: All of this riders are well and alive. Non have a fatal incident. The one that has fatal incident doesn't showed here(RIP JD50). Also, this happens pretty much every weekend race
Yeah MotoGP riders are the nutters of the Motorsport, incredibly brave, talented and maybe a little bit downright crazy! 🤪 Would love to see you react to some endurance racing as those have some great racing and accidents that will amaze you
You’re clearly from the north of Ireland judging by your accent so you should know that it’s one of the best places for road racing like the NW200, Ulster GP or Armoy which are probably not far from your house. So you could react to them as they’re far more dangerous than MotoGP
MotoGP, imo, is the best motorsports to watch and follow. I would like to recommend a reaction video to ASTARTES (Warhammer) and ELI 21 (Adrian Caparzo).
I was laughing at his reactions at the start of the video but ending up kinda like him at the Moto3 part. That category was really too dangerous last year (he was watching the 2021 compilation if you didn’t notice)
I don't get it. Why does no one react to the actual racing videos?! They're so much more exciting to watch. Crashes just deter people from watching the sport. You should react to the top last lap battles of 2019.You'll also be flinching throughout, but this time for all the right reasons ;)
3:16 On average, over a race distance the bikes will go 160 to 185 kph (100 to 115 MPH). But that is AVERAGE. On the longer straights like Mugello or Qatar, the bikes can breach 300+ kph (186+ MPH). As to the oft repeated question of how they are not dead, since... 2015? I think it was, all riders must wear one piece race leathers with airbags built in, with the most common two being Dainese and Alpinestars' racing airbags. As well, a full set of professional leathers are 1.2 or greater mm thick kangaroo or cowhide leather, backed by a flexible carbon fiber layer (as in carbon fiber that has not been resin impregnated), which itself is backed by Nomex fireproof cloth and an internal mesh to allow for the leathers to breathe a little. They are also fully armored, with exo-skeletal race boots that have a torsion point that prevents their feet twisting over an internal "bootie" which itself carries flexible armor. They have full length shin armor along the front and knee sliders with knee pads behind. They also have elbow and shoulder sliders, full motorsports grade chest and spinal armor, forearm armor, full race gauntlet armored gloves, and the absolute top of the top spec helmets, which are often made of 3K or greater count carbon fiber with MIPS or anti-rotational internal devices on the foam crash structure. What all this does is give the riders sliding protection at 100 MPH for anywhere up to 12 seconds on the smoother tarmac of race tracks, as each mm of proper grade leather gives you a second of abrasion protection. The flexible carbon fiber is there to add tension to prevent your arms and legs going very much in the wrong direction, as well as a "last gasp" bit of abrasion protection. The airbags are driven by electronics, and if the sensors detect that they are at a dangerous angle, or the accelerometers built in detect a sudden and violent change of direction that usually means the rider is being launched into a highside, it deploys in under a tenth of a second and provides excellent crash protection. Riders will still get injured, as Marc Marquez will tell you with his broken leg, broken wrist, broken collarbone (twice!) and the like, but it's better to be injured than dead or paralyzed. Aslo, why these crashes keep happening is that these riders are quite literally on the razors edge of adhesion and control. These bikes must weigh minimum of 160 kg (350 lbs) full wet ready to race without the rider, and these engines are so high tech that from V4's and inline-4's you're getting 290 HP. There is also no ABS, but there is electronic suspension allowed for race starts with an "anti-squat" launch mode, which compresses the rear suspension as far as it will go so that the bike doesn't squat during a full power launch. This is why at 1:50, when he braked as the other rider meandered over, he locked up for a split second on the front, the weight of the rider and bike wanted to keep going forward, and he did what is known in the motorcycle world as an "endo," which is short for "end over end," basically the opposite of a wheelie.
The reason there have'nt been any deaths recently is coz no one has been hit from behind by a speeding motorbike after they've fallen off. Simoncelli and tomisawa died this way. Luis salom was hit by his own bike after it rebounded from hitting the airfence and died. The airbags will limit injuries to an extent if you are thrown off the bike but wont protect when a bike hits you at speed.
@@AdamCouser its so insane, check out the first person views from their helmets too. Big fan btw, been watching your videos since you started doing nhl videos lol. Keep it up bro

😲😰OMG -- How they can get up and walk after that is crazy and talk about head injuries ! Wow
1:03 That’s Jorge Martin breaking 8 bones from being tossed around like a rag doll after clipping the gravel. I remember watching that one live. Scared the hell out of me :(
He’s doing much better now, though!
Big fan of your channel Adam Courser
The suits definitely don’t make the impact any less painful. It may help slightly, but it’s mainly designed to slide. A slide is probably best case scenario. Tumbling hurts.
the suits generally have a built in airbag
This video is the personification of "Dress for the slide, not the ride" You should also check out wtf moments in IMSA.
If you liked this you should check out supercross/motocross crashes!
Motogp has a top speed around 360kmp hour ofcourse coroners are significantly slower but they still go crazy fast. The suites they are wearing have an airbag build in it which I believe blows up instantly if the driver loses contact with the bike.
Big fan of your channel Adam
he didnt even see the zarco and the franco crash what a shame
The title of this videos can be : Márquez Crash and other Riders too
I think MotoGP Rider's wearpack is also the perfect Airborne Suit 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Marquez always on the limit and beyond 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Marquez can also save it like no one else. He's like a cat
Shocking they havent shown ones to were the guys are still latched to the bike when they crash
The most dangerous motorsport ever
Some of these guys were pulling gravel out their hind end or shitting gravel for a day or two.
There is not much in the world, thats sucks more, then to moment your bike turns against you in a fast turn.
You should see the moto gp crash austria 2020. Was a hell of a near miss
suits have airbags built in
I'm pretty sure their suits are close to that of astronauts just like Nascar and formula 1 drivers
I love you Adam 😍 💗 I love when you sing🤗 OMG these crashes. Please don't get on a motorcycle 😭 stay well
I really want to see you react to Ryan Newmans 2020 Daytona 500 Crash
Motogp is just insane.
Look up the 2020 Austrian Moto GP crash. Shit’s WILD!
High side is the worst....that's when the bike throws you off....neither is fun, but I think I can speak for the pros when I say......" I rather slide then get thrown off".
Love the channel and somehow it said I wasn't subscribed......I was, now i am again
I race one of these bikes! If you ever need more footage to react to I got you
Why is Brad Binder doing reaction videos on this channel?
Fact: All of this riders are well and alive. Non have a fatal incident. The one that has fatal incident doesn't showed here(RIP JD50). Also, this happens pretty much every weekend race
You have to have straight fuckin balls of steel to do that...thats just fucking mental.
You know that this was moto3 not motogp
Yeah MotoGP riders are the nutters of the Motorsport, incredibly brave, talented and maybe a little bit downright crazy! 🤪 Would love to see you react to some endurance racing as those have some great racing and accidents that will amaze you
You’re clearly from the north of Ireland judging by your accent so you should know that it’s one of the best places for road racing like the NW200, Ulster GP or Armoy which are probably not far from your house. So you could react to them as they’re far more dangerous than MotoGP
MotoGP, imo, is the best motorsports to watch and follow. I would like to recommend a reaction video to ASTARTES (Warhammer) and ELI 21 (Adrian Caparzo).
I was laughing at his reactions at the start of the video but ending up kinda like him at the Moto3 part. That category was really too dangerous last year (he was watching the 2021 compilation if you didn’t notice)
I don't get it. Why does no one react to the actual racing videos?! They're so much more exciting to watch. Crashes just deter people from watching the sport.
You should react to the top last lap battles of 2019.You'll also be flinching throughout, but this time for all the right reasons ;)
crashes are more sensationalist
way more dangerous than f1. You actually need skill and when you push too hard...there you go. Luckily no deaths shown...
British:❌
British accent:✔️
I am also speechless
Absolutely have to check out the Isle of Man TT if you haven't already.
3:16 On average, over a race distance the bikes will go 160 to 185 kph (100 to 115 MPH). But that is AVERAGE. On the longer straights like Mugello or Qatar, the bikes can breach 300+ kph (186+ MPH).
As to the oft repeated question of how they are not dead, since... 2015? I think it was, all riders must wear one piece race leathers with airbags built in, with the most common two being Dainese and Alpinestars' racing airbags. As well, a full set of professional leathers are 1.2 or greater mm thick kangaroo or cowhide leather, backed by a flexible carbon fiber layer (as in carbon fiber that has not been resin impregnated), which itself is backed by Nomex fireproof cloth and an internal mesh to allow for the leathers to breathe a little. They are also fully armored, with exo-skeletal race boots that have a torsion point that prevents their feet twisting over an internal "bootie" which itself carries flexible armor. They have full length shin armor along the front and knee sliders with knee pads behind. They also have elbow and shoulder sliders, full motorsports grade chest and spinal armor, forearm armor, full race gauntlet armored gloves, and the absolute top of the top spec helmets, which are often made of 3K or greater count carbon fiber with MIPS or anti-rotational internal devices on the foam crash structure.
What all this does is give the riders sliding protection at 100 MPH for anywhere up to 12 seconds on the smoother tarmac of race tracks, as each mm of proper grade leather gives you a second of abrasion protection. The flexible carbon fiber is there to add tension to prevent your arms and legs going very much in the wrong direction, as well as a "last gasp" bit of abrasion protection. The airbags are driven by electronics, and if the sensors detect that they are at a dangerous angle, or the accelerometers built in detect a sudden and violent change of direction that usually means the rider is being launched into a highside, it deploys in under a tenth of a second and provides excellent crash protection. Riders will still get injured, as Marc Marquez will tell you with his broken leg, broken wrist, broken collarbone (twice!) and the like, but it's better to be injured than dead or paralyzed.
Aslo, why these crashes keep happening is that these riders are quite literally on the razors edge of adhesion and control. These bikes must weigh minimum of 160 kg (350 lbs) full wet ready to race without the rider, and these engines are so high tech that from V4's and inline-4's you're getting 290 HP. There is also no ABS, but there is electronic suspension allowed for race starts with an "anti-squat" launch mode, which compresses the rear suspension as far as it will go so that the bike doesn't squat during a full power launch. This is why at 1:50, when he braked as the other rider meandered over, he locked up for a split second on the front, the weight of the rider and bike wanted to keep going forward, and he did what is known in the motorcycle world as an "endo," which is short for "end over end," basically the opposite of a wheelie.
The reason there have'nt been any deaths recently is coz no one has been hit from behind by a speeding motorbike after they've fallen off. Simoncelli and tomisawa died this way. Luis salom was hit by his own bike after it rebounded from hitting the airfence and died. The airbags will limit injuries to an extent if you are thrown off the bike but wont protect when a bike hits you at speed.
How has no one suggested the Marco Simoncelli crash?
Hey Adam, I have a suggestion for you! I think you should check out NHL: Bias Commentators. Funnies stuff I’ve ever seen
