Woah! Amazing that the rider had the presence of mind to pull her with him - amazing. I had to watch that a few times to get the full picture.
She probably had his wallet
amazing
Why did he pull him/her with him?
Can’t figure out why, what makes him think his path would be safer than hers?
Looking at it a few times now and it looks like a child so maybe he is the father and is making sure they are close by. In which case i do understand why
Well, if you watch closely, he’s pulling her onto the other side of the road out of the traffic, and at some point, the bike must have overtaken them, which is scary in itself.
I saw the video somewhere else, it’s the rider’s girlfriend, he is trying to cover her against any impact with his own body.
You’re on reddit? This video and todays forecast is what put me off riding to work today, obviously I know it doesn’t rain this hard in London, but as a newbie I don’t think i’m a smooth enough rider to be in the rain yet.
She definitely needs a better helmet.
@neddy, yep I’m a redditor… as many here, but I tend to lurk more than anything else
Wow what a video. In all the choas no other thought than making sure that person as safe…
As above, he was probably just trying to protect them. Amazing how everyone behind just carried on!! what a world we live in
Body cover. Shows great awareness and it happens so fast it has to be instinct.
Oh yes, i can see it now, he looks at where he is heading and you see him push her away from the centre of the road, Amazing!!!
Incredible video. That’s some big love right there.
because Sam, the first thing you should do in case of a crash is let the bike go, and the pillion might not even been aware they were having a crash yet. good call.
That’s amazing to me that’s more impressive than any stunt, power wheelie or GP win, props to the rider!
I’m pretty sure sliding through a puddle like that she was more than aware they had come off lol
i was referring to that split second where he realized the bike was going from underneath him. usually as a pillion your reaction is delayed as you’re not necessarily paying attention/dont know how to ride.
How many times have you been pillion on a crashed bike?
Looks like he was going far too fast for the conditions, and whats wrong with the helmet, it’s a shark, they’re good in the wet
lol, Very good
