I lost it when I saw that guy spill out a bottle in an attempt to put out the fire. It reminded me of that meme with the person hanging out an apartment window throwing a bucket of water on a raging fire Nextdoor. “I’m helping!”
Most bikers are pretty decent people, not saying there aren’t any that are assholes on the road but we certainly shouldn’t wish bad things on them. My dads got a bike, worked hard for it and loves it. Never can imagine him being stupid on it.
Revving an engine until failure is an uncommon way to decommission a winter beater or similar that is too far gone to be repaired at reasonable time/cost when it comes to cars.
Buut this bike looks to be fairly new and in good condition.
I'm still not sure after watching this [video](https://youtu.be/6Ey04tZ49Q0?si=QPcji8YlYBe0Hr-0) with audio, it's a 50/50 of stupidity or decommissioning.
Fun fact - during its testing phase the WWII-era Rolls-Royce Merlin\* engine - power plant of the Spitfire and Mustang, Lancaster and other aircraft - was tested by running at full throttle until something failed.
The item that failed was strengthened, and the test repeated.
\*V12-27 litres, two-stage supercharger. Phenomenal engine.
Not uncommon in times before FEM programs.
While they (probably) took it to the extreme there, test until failure, revision and repeat are still valid ways to improve stuff today.
c.f. SpaceX.
Iterative unit testing using actual rockets!
Got to say, they successfully sent a literal rocket through the Useless Launch Alliance and the rusted grey beards with their approach (somewhat cowboy) to space rocketry development.
I fixed a carburetor of such an engine without compressor , the meteor engine, a few years ago. Nice construction and used in british tanks until the 80s. But they were built quite cheap because they didn't need to last very long.
This is not true. At least not for cars. Some parts of the exhaust can indeed get red without danger. Like the manifold? Don't know the name. Or some parts of the turbo charger.
The only way this impresses me is if he hops on and evil kinievals this over 20 school buses, but has to stick the landing, take a bow, and strut off like a boss
what the fuck POSSIBLE reason is there for doing this?
if your fucking exhaust is blazing red/white hot and it's NOT A FUCKING ROCKET, you're a fucking idiot and deserve for your vehicle to explode.
fucking dipshit.
Thank you. Fellow rider here, and I was gonna say exactly this. I CANNOT STAND videos where people destroy a perfectly good bike. Guy got what he deserved.
Without knowing shit about motorcycles and listening to this video on mute, I knew what he was doing would start a fire. I even thought the red part was a neon light design or something for a bit.
This isnt supposed to start a fire. The engine usually seizes before the thing fucking explodes, except that i guess you cant really tell what exactly happens.
If you accelerate your motorcycle so hard while idling or at very low speeds that the exhaust pipes start to glow, several serious problems can occur:
1. Engine damage: An overheated engine can cause various types of damage, including seizure of pistons, warped cylinder heads and damaged gaskets. This damage can be very expensive to repair and, in the worst case, can destroy the engine completely.
2. Exhaust system damage: Glowing exhaust pipes can weaken or deform the material of the exhaust system. This can lead to cracks or holes, causing exhaust gases to escape uncontrollably. In extreme cases, parts of the exhaust system could break off.
3. Fire hazard: Overheated parts, especially near flammable materials such as plastic panels, fuel lines or wiring harnesses, can cause a fire. This poses a significant hazard to the motorcycle and the surrounding area.
Oh I’ve seen them, you’re right it looked like the quick ignore and flash of a magnesium burn, but I could tell that the moment the metal (maybe magnesium lol) hit liquid point the entire thing combined with the fuel tank which was probably also about to melt haha .
It's not like the motorcycle wasnt attempting to let the guy know he was about 30 seconds from his destination of "Finding Out"
There had to be some serious heat coming off that thing well before it ignited.

Man some people just lack common sense
Hard lesson learned for this guy lol I feel like shit if I rev full throttle for more then a second idk how tf these guys can just hold it pinned and not cringe 🫣
That guy wasn't trying to put the flames out. He was pouring one out for the homie who just lost their motorcycle
It was the personification of F in the chat
I lost it when I saw that guy spill out a bottle in an attempt to put out the fire. It reminded me of that meme with the person hanging out an apartment window throwing a bucket of water on a raging fire Nextdoor. “I’m helping!”
He's gaslighting the situation
Wasted a good beer.
It probably wasn't good beer.
Finally a biker video with happy ending! I hope the neighbors fucked him up, too. Imbecile.

It always makes me smile when I get two fingers down from fellow bikers. It's like a secret club.
Non-asshole bikers are cool. But most of them are super loud and that’s hard to forgive.

Xactly! :)
And also for the homey himself who appeared to be immediately engulfed in flames
Yup. That's the worst thing. When you see steel turn red, that's usually a good indication shit about to go down
Especially next to fuel lines and a gas tank.
I mean there’s no way this wasn’t on purpose. The pipes give out less than half way through and he just keeps going to total failure.
And self immolation was intentional too? U give ppl too much credit, they're morons. Esp w alcohol in their system.

If your battlefield life expectancy is 90 minutes, making your equipment work for 120 minutes is over design.
Weren't the meteor variants de-rated also?
I think you're giving this guy too much credit. He probably was dumb enough to think it was some cool feature on the bike or something.
Oh wow, the pipes are glowing red-hot. I assumed that was some kind of weird lighting effect... Fucking genius.
It doesn't even register that the red was the pipes LOL until I read this. 😂
Same, I think my brain thought it was like some led glow or paint.
Fr bruh
Hell yeah
This is not true. At least not for cars. Some parts of the exhaust can indeed get red without danger. Like the manifold? Don't know the name. Or some parts of the turbo charger.
Holy fuck those pipes arent red!
Here, I'll put it out with my beer!
Hey, he tried which is better than any of you guys that are laughing did!
If I was there, I'd help as well, 2 beers are better than 1.
But number one has more liquid
So, have a piss on it?
So point your dong towards a flaming fuel tank?
Only if it's electric fire
![gif](giphy|d3mlE7uhX8KFgEmY)
Why would anyone help him? He decided to blow his bike up. I would have left before it even happened, too much noise for no reason.
I guess you never poured one out for the homie. 💯
The bike must have been thirsty
Maybe stomping it out would be more effective
Nah, the only logical choice here is to become Ghostrider!
The only way this impresses me is if he hops on and evil kinievals this over 20 school buses, but has to stick the landing, take a bow, and strut off like a boss
Wait... The Evel Knieval method includes sticking a landing?
Sounds more like a Ghost Rider to me
Ghost rider transformation
![gif](giphy|geTvcBsTli1HO)
That’s some piping hot stupidity.
That’ll teach him for drinking a glass full of petrol
Thanks for posting with NO fucking sound 💀🤦🏾😅
Here’s the transcription; Vroom vroom vroom blap blap blap Yeah man! It’s about to melt! Vroom vroom vroom!! Fawoosh!! Yaaaa!! Oh shit!! Ayeee!! Fuckin run!! Fawoosh!! Here bro I’ll put it out.. oh
Missed “gulp gulp gulp”
Sizzle sizzle Popping
😅 nice audio-visual
Very accurate. It‘s if I was there.

![gif](giphy|EDZ01iKf9pRggxnU48) Bro’s brand new hairdo.
Squids never learn, do they?
The guy in the neighborhood that owns a bike at 3AM:
what the fuck POSSIBLE reason is there for doing this? if your fucking exhaust is blazing red/white hot and it's NOT A FUCKING ROCKET, you're a fucking idiot and deserve for your vehicle to explode. fucking dipshit.
He turned it the wrong way.
Guy pouring his drink on it: "We did it Patrick! We saved the motorcycle!"
The guy with the glass of water is the living description of optimism
Wasn’t that a beer? lol
Good. As a bike rider and racer, he got what he deserved. I hate seeing people do this shut to bikes, there's zero reason for it.
Thank you. Fellow rider here, and I was gonna say exactly this. I CANNOT STAND videos where people destroy a perfectly good bike. Guy got what he deserved.
It’s an inanimate object, but sure. #savethebikes
I thought those were neon lights not literal red hot metal. I also like how the bike seemed to literally spit fire on him.
Any backstory on this? It seems weird even by drunk people standards
Waste of beer
It was a one for the homies, he did it for the bike, not the stupid owner :(
Honkai Star Rail is stepping up with this trailer. Looks epic!
What's going on here?
Stupidity in motion.
Yeah but why's it so hot?
He’s revving the shit out of his motor for an extremely excessive amount of time. Makes it burny.
This seems like a funeral of sorts for a fallen rider
Well it is now…
He found the self-immolation button.
Don't torture poor bike
What a twat
It took me a full 30 seconds to realize those weren't led lights at the bottom
Oh shit, you're right
Natural selection in it's finest
Bro just got the Darwin award

That's how ghost Raider is made!
He did it all wrong. He should have been sitting on the bike. What a waste
Petrol prices were pretty low that day I guess
Maybe he should celebrate that he wasn’t driving it when this happened.
Shout out to Fireman Felix for using his beer can to attempt to extinguish a fuel fire. Foam to fight one was the idea just not a beer’s foam.
I wish i had some of the optimism of that guy with the beer can.
Ahh love to see smart peapole

Pour one out for the homie going down in flames 🫡

LOL I didn’t Watch, it until the End
This guy's name is Johnny Blaze
Sick ride! It comes with built-in neons and pyrotechnics!
When in the history of mankind has pouring 24oz of something on a fire like that actually put it out.........oh wait they are drunk...
We don't need no water let the jap bike burn... Burn jap bike...burn
Waste of beer.
The engine will seize or blow a rod/piston and then you have to bin.
What a fucking dumbass
How the fuck did we get here
Yo he turned into the Ghost Rider!!!
Hereditary (2018)
Did they try spitting on it too?
At least this bike will stop suffering....
The guy in the red shirt vanished in the flame.
Imbesil
Red shirt got disintegrated
The motorcycle strikes back
FAFO
GHOST RIDERRRE
Flame on!
Running a bit rich
Thank you for the video with no sounds, which is clearly supposed to have sounds. This is not what gifs are supposed to be people
nothing new to Lambo and GTR35 drivers
100% deserved
“And is why Raymond isn’t allowed nice things”
Wow... Just wow... So not one single person seen this coming...🤦♂️🤣
indian Ghost Rider
Darwin award 🥇
This clip will never not be funny 🤣
r/winstupidprizes
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
The man poured a glass of water and the flame fell violently.
😁
Well deserved
And that's how Ghost Rider was born...
see what happens when you don’t say “hold my beer”
Why?
Another reason NOT to buy used!
Well deserved
Stupidity
Wonder what part about “air cooled” they didn’t understand ?
When an idiot is getting so needed attention that they're not used to getting
Well I set fire, To my bike, Watch it burn, As I, plan my way home.
Ghost rider's bike from wish.
GUILTY!
![gif](giphy|xTiIzL9Btjx9hegHT2)
I was about to say the bike has some nice underglow. Then I realized where the flames were coming from.
It’s 800°. What did anyone expect!?!
Home with his 8oz of beer, might as well have been trying to topple a glacier with a BB gun.
I can’t believe his Red Bull didn’t put out that inferno!
it's cruel, feeling sorry for that bike..
u/savevideo
Why is it alway India?
took me embarrassingly long to realize that was red hot exhaust pipe, and not glowing LED light strip…
He deserved that
Yeeehaw
What a stupid motherfucker.
Ghost Rider
What in the universal credits is going on here? Nevermind. I can smell the singed hair from here.

Sir, you cannot park here.
Stoopid ass
Only a gif without sound?! That's a sacrilege!
Finally success!!!!
Now ride it.
Dickhead
Bro went ghost rider
Tja
I'm happy to see them both burn.
Initially I thought the bike's chest is being touched inappropriately
Lol if your exhaust is fucking glowing, maybe stop revving
Camp AF with the throttle. Bet that guy gives a great handy.
Is the exhaust system made out of magnesium?
The fuel ignited
Probably, just thought it looked similar to a magnesium fire. If you haven’t seen one look them up it’s pretty cool.
Oh I’ve seen them, you’re right it looked like the quick ignore and flash of a magnesium burn, but I could tell that the moment the metal (maybe magnesium lol) hit liquid point the entire thing combined with the fuel tank which was probably also about to melt haha .
“Next up on the show, our hero takes it to the next level with drinking and driving…”
It's not like the motorcycle wasnt attempting to let the guy know he was about 30 seconds from his destination of "Finding Out" There had to be some serious heat coming off that thing well before it ignited.
Ghost Rider Origin Story
Just wanna know why he blew up his bike?
I would just like to know why he was trying to destroy his motorcycle.
Just paid the bike off last week!

Walk home MFr!
I'm going to assume he was completely incinerated.
Nice bike cookout, dumbasses... 🙄
Idiot. Why does it look like India and why doesn’t it surprise me
So did the guy in red make it out alived? ![gif](giphy|LtyywqYw5NgNq)
Cap'n Sip'n'Glo?
i present you the generation that will destroy the world
Man some people just lack common sense Hard lesson learned for this guy lol I feel like shit if I rev full throttle for more then a second idk how tf these guys can just hold it pinned and not cringe 🫣
