I fell off my pedal bike the other day. Went over the handlebars. It hurt for, like, a week. I cant imagine being this reckless on a giant engine strapped to some steel pipes.
As someone who was reckless on one and did something almost identical, even in gear this kinda hurt. Still, it was something I was able to walk off and recover with some ibuprofen, and if I was wearing my pants, probably not even that. This dude is going to have a concussion and need skin grafts, at minimum.
