Default holy cow

So I was watching "most amazing videos" on the spiketv channel and this guy in a motorcycle race in holland blows an oil line, lowsides, his body flips end over end and he hits a padded wall.

As soon as he hits the padded wall and starts to fall back down, the front tire of another bike comes flying through the air and misses his head by about half a foot and smashes into the wall right next to him literally.

lucky duck.

I've seen it... If you can find the clip with a slo mo replay you can see that the bike actually hits him on the helmet, pushing his head down and out of the way...

Crazy stuff!
