I've seen a couple of videos like that including one that looked like it was someplace like India that looked genuine.

Crazy. Hinge? Doubtful. Seems more likely to me that it was for a lock or ropes. But who knows. Very, VERY impressive and amazing.

Is it just me or was the guy changing lanes only barely ahead of the truck. It doesn't Justify the truck doing something stupid, but it looks like the car changing lanes isn't totally faultless.

I've owned many 2 stroke bikes and don't remember ever seeing an oil slick on the garage floor when they are running. Maybe a boat motor runs richer?
