Video: This lad’s ‘wheelie gone wrong’ makes a serious case for wearing a helmet

This guy was lucky

JOE

Phew.

This guy was biking on a motorway when he decided to do a wheelie, which probably would have been fine if it had not been for the bike switching into neutral and throwing him off.

The sheer power behind the throw shows you the frailty of the human body when it comes to motor vehicles and how lucky he is to be alive after the incident.

If he hadn’t been wearing a helmet who knows if he would have survived to tell the tale, but what a story for the pub after.

A real near miss experience.
