Default VIDEO: Motorcycle wheelie crash at 90mph with helmet cam-d'oh!

Well, he came down a little off, got into a nasty tank slapper, then the sky/dirt thing... does capture well what a high speed wreck feels like
(well looks like anyway from a 1st person view point)

from the looks of it his front wheel wasnt straight when he put it down, and that caused the tank slapper that sent him tumbling.

good find for both, first person view of a tumble and good cam mount.

that guy should send that video in to the cam manufacturer.
