This motorcyclist in Russia couldn’t wait the extra few seconds at a level crossing and he ended up paying a seriously painful price…

It’s never a good idea to mess around at level crossings, but this guy in Russia obviously thought he could pass through without waiting for the green light. Sadly, he was wrong… Skip to the 0:24 mark to see the crash.

It’s hard to tell whether the bloke in question didn’t see the ramp that caused his crash, or whether he was trying to make a stuntman-style jump.

Either way, the bike ends up flipping in mid air and crashes down hard on the rider. And to make matters even worse, he wasn’t wearing a helmet…
