[Replay @ 5:49] [Watch in HD] [Don't forget to rate!]

I hit a buck (had 2+ in. antlers) on my 04 GSXR 1000, which is the best looking year, on June 28, 2009. I did not crash, but the bike was totaled. It literally jumped right in front of me (about 10 feet at most) and I had no time to react! While editing this vid, the deer was only on cam for 3 frames which is 3/30 or 1/10 of a sec! I saw it's head right in front of my fist and then boom! I think the momentum from accelerating out of the corner is what saved me, along with the fact that I hit it while it was still in mid-air.

Not only did I not crash, but there was no car coming the other way to kill me when I crossed over. I rode it for another 45 mins until it overheated.

I survived with not a scratch. The deer was still in mid air as it's neck/shoulder was sliced by my right fork and brake rotor. Then it busted my frame slider all the way back, brushed my knee (leaving fur in the velcro), and flung off the exhaust, when it made like a top and spun to the other side of the road, leaving a blood trail over 50 ft. The 2 parallel lines of blood keep intersecting, which show how much the deer spun.

By the way, I am not looking at my gauges. The cam was tilted down by accident, but I was fortunate because IF it was tilted up you wouldn't be able to see the impact! Unfortunately, I forgot to buy a lotto ticket that day. Filmed with a VIO POV 1.5 helmet cam.

  • Friend of mine got a motorcycle for his

    16th birthday. He decided to start at the far end of his block and go whipping by his house at 80 mph, but he forgot about the car-chasing dog next door. The dog heard him coming, and went running out into the street just in time to get T-boned at about 70 mph. The motorcycle endoed 14 times, based on the marks in the pavement and the front yards across the street. The bike had to be picked up with shovels and loaded into a pickup truck to be carted away. The rider's helmet was smashed like an eggshell, his leathers looked like they got sucked into a jet intake. The rider was completely unhurt, not even a scratch. The thing that pissed him off the most was that they sewed the dog back together, and within a couple of weeks, he was back out chasing cars on his three remaining legs, though his bark now sounded like hunhhhh-hu-u-unnnhhhh...
