I know millions of you have seen this. But i still dont see how amazingly he accelerates through.

This guy probally sleeps in the squat position...

Anyone know who he is? Coudlnt find any info on him.

The video is a fake. The first "police" car is the actual car being chased. It's much smaller than the second (real) police car. The top of the first car was photoshopped white to make it look like a police car. The real police car has a white panel on the door and numbers on the roof. The cyclist was photoshopped in as well.

I don't understand that truck driver's plan..."Oh here, let me help by just killing this guy." I wonder if he really got away.

edit: mm, yeah, that makes more sense if it's fake.

Yeah, Because look how fast he is travling. If i find out how many Frames per second the footage is, Later ill put it into AE and i'll find out how much the cyclist would've needed to accelerate guessing the length of the car and truck....

LMAO for you thinking it's real. You don't need to do all that to verify that it's fake, come on.

The "cop" at the front isn't a cop car. It's shooped to look like one, but the cops are actually chasing that car, and the bike was just added in. That semi helped block in that car for the cops.

naww guys, its real. this is what happened when the terminator was going to save john connor, but didn't have his harley. bionic stength + fixie = monster speed. the first cop car looks fake because it is, its really the cyber morphing cop looking one. Probably a crazy gear ratio too

But the real question is, was the cyclist doping?
