VIDEO: Skateboarder goes 60mph on a highway in Germany

Most likely a professional stuntman wearing a speedsuit and an aerodynamics helmet with some sort of a special skateboard(I don’t think my skateboard would ever manage speeds over 15 mph) used a bike to get his speed up before entering the A8 motorway.

Once the speed was up he was doing around 60 mph while other drivers were passing him. Pretty grazy.

Money can not buy you any brain cells as this driver/owner must be a total idiot.
He is risking his life and OTHERS as well while driving over 200 mph on a public road in Arizona.
Sure the sound of the car is nice on the video, but a smart person would find a track or a closed road for a test like this. We hope the Arizona state police will identify the driver and make sure he does not get behind the wheel for a long time.

172 mph - fastest speed ever recorded by police in UK!

When Tim Brady punched the accelerator in the Porsche 911 Turbo he was piloting down a rural road in Oxfordshire earlier this year, he could never have imagined that the action would become a moment of infamy.
