ok this was bothering me since the first time i watched it but pay attention to 00:40.
the bike is going side ways and the front wheel is twisting/rolling left to right?!!!

I think just the front wheel is spinning sideways (which is badass). You can see Batman still on top of the bike as the front wheel spins, haha.

Oh that's brilliant!! I never noticed that before. The laws of physics would state that if he just tried to powerslide the bike, the contact patch of those large tires would simply be too much friction to be overcome by the relatively light weight of a person and the bike itself! On the assumption that the friction in the rear is decreased by a spinning, the front, which has no drive capabilities, would have to do something so as to allow that maneuver.


My car isn't the fastest car out there, but I'll tell ya....

Sometimes I haul more ass than a pimp driving a caddy full of hoes.
