Five of the Greatest Motorcycle Stunts Ever!
When I sat down to hash out this list, I came to the sobering realization that when it comes to bike stuff, be it motocross, street, whatever -- I’m still pretty green. My gearhead passions have always treaded on four wheels. But I’m looking to evolve, to expand my horizons. And with Sunday's premiere of Jesse James is a Dead Man just a few days away, what better time is there to dive into the death-defying world of motorcycle stunts?

Probably the most striking feature in many of these feats -- as opposed to most other stunt performances -- is the apparent total lack of concern for injury and/or death. Flaming hoops, shark tanks, lack of safety gear -- whatever they can find to up the ante a little is (well, was) just icing on the cake. Of course, going helmetless like some of these guys seems like you’re giving Darwin a freebie, but maybe that’s just my semi-bionic leg doing the talking there. Cars have roll cages and tightrope walkers have mattresses to land on if they fall. On a motorcycle, it's you, the bike, and the ground.
Undoubtedly, you’ve got to have brass balls even to consider doing some of this stuff, but the adrenaline rush of traversing the line between life and death is something that thrill junkies need in order to get anything accomplished.
Of course, it doesn’t hurt that chicks dig scars, and the media loves it when people are willing to flirt with death on live television. So with that in mind, I think we’d be doing a great disservice to the entire motorcycle daredevil community if we didn’t begin with a nod to the first guy who saw the fountains at Caesar’s Palace and thought, “I need to launch over that on a Harley Davidson.”
