During the championship at Magny-Cours, two motorcycles become entangled, apparently by their accelerators. Or maybe they just like each other. -via The Daily What

Clearly the #6 bike's throttle grip got twisted open by it getting entagled with the other bike. Something similar happened to me at an enduro years ago, but in my case the bikes didn't do a crazy dance. My bike just lay their screaming with the back tyre chewing chunks out of the seat and rear guard of the other bike until I got to the kill switch.

You can see why rider #6 was so angry. He gets taken out by another rider outbraking himself. Then seeing his bike doesn't look too damaged he wants to carry on. And then this freak accident happens and kills his chance of any points.

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

Over at Jalopnik, check out the comment section for the same video with music (Yakkity Sax and Let's Get It On). Your LOL for the day.
