as i was ‘riding’ in style on the bus to school today i ran across a news article in the province newspaper (yes given free of charge prior to boarding the sky-train) about a wannabe stunt artist. biker from england decides to post his bike ride, with the usual flavored stunts, on youtube, only to be picked up by police who use the youtube clip to jail the biker for 3 months.
we’ve all seen the long list of speeding videos on youtube, some are quite impressive. high speeds, crazy stunts, but this one definitely bites. not only does his own video land him some jail time, but apparently when the police (who at that point were unaware of the online video) arrived at the biker’s house he decides to just spill the beans about the video. really, how dumb must one be to not only dig his own hole with the online posting but push himself in willingly. we all speed, but i’m willing to be most of us tend to shy away from setting up evidence that could land us some punishment. guess boys will always be boys and will keep looking for ways to show their worth.
