About a month back we saw French stunt rider Jorian Ponomareff for the first in action (at least for us) and this is the daredevil’s latest video to help celebrate the Christmas season with a lot of flair.

Enjoy.

The Pakistani’s are naming him the King of Rollerblades because he skates behind his low displacement motorcycle manouvering it with a thin rope.

What I find fascinating is that almost everyone following him are riding three per bike and no one is wearing a helmet, but then I really shouldn’t be that surprised because it is almost an everyday occurence in Naples, Italy where you can find entire families on scooters not wearing helmets despite mandatory helmet laws and that only two people can be on a motorcycle at a time.

Even the most practiced and choreographed motorcycle stunt can go wrong. This video comes from Beto Carrero World theme park in Penha, Brazil where rider Denis Borges and Anderson Sanches perform their daredevil stunts in the Extreme Show.

Borges misjudges the distance between the oncoming cars and heads smack into one of them and flies 80ft through the air before eventually hitting the ground and travelling another 40ft before stopping.

Taken to a nearby hospital and amazingly, he did not sustain any serious injuries and was back at work the day after.

19-year-old Jackson Strong is the first rider to complete a front flip in competition, according to reports. The first recorded front flip completed on a motorcycle was by Jim DeChamp in 2009, but this X Games front flip video captures the move in competition. We already reported that Jackson completed a front flip on the Crusty Demons tour in Australia recently, but we’re not sure if that qualifies as a ‘competition’ one or not. In any case, it looks like it’s becoming Strong’s specialty and what’s more, in this latest front flip, he sticks the landing and runs away with a gold medal in the best trick contest for doing so. Check it out in the video.

You might be thinking this is a traditional method of removing a tooth by way of a motorcycle - that is by falling off without wearing a helmet. But this family decides to use a more innovative method, using a big sister, a string and a bike. We’re not sure that heaps can go wrong with this motorcycle stunt, but it seems a silly thing to do anyway and we’d prefer not to think about it. Of course, it’s all filmed by a loving and very sensible parent.

After knee down, elbow down, leg waving, the lastest rage in riding styles is getting your head down, and it looks like the Japanese fad has caught on. Check out how this dude in what looks like full camouflage gear does it at the 1.15 mark.

Do we have to really have mention the line that usually accompanies these types of stunts? We think not.

What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas unless you’re Travis Pastrana and the Nitro Circus gang and you’re peforming at the Nitro Circus Live at the MGM Grand Arena on the June 5th.

The stunts were not only eye-opening, but mind boggling: the first synchronized double back flip by Pastrana and Cam Sinclair, the world’s first three-person back flip and much, much more, including a marriage proposal. Check out the video and get blown away like we did.

Rather than a way to enjoy a nice base jump with your dirtbike, this video is a very good lesson in how to utterly destroy your motocross bike in a motorcycle stunt. This base jump motorcycle video shows Julio Munoz in Chile get a dirtbike helicopter lifted to the top of a mountain, and then jump off a ramp into the air. He then dismounts a few thousand feet above earth and floats down while the bike hurtles towards its messier fate. See it all in the video. All we can say is, it must a freaky feeling riding off the face of the earth like that….

Can you drift as well on a bike as in a car, seems to be the questioned posed in this motorcycle stunt video from Icon of rider Nick Brocha putting a Kawasaki ZX10 around a track, drifting off the rear wheel. The challenger in the video is a Mazda RX-7 driven by Jim Guthrie and the bike has an extended swing arm to help it along. The golden quote from this video is: “We thought it would give Nick extra motivation to twist the throttle knowing a 2,400lbs car was about to run him over.” But from what we understand the “Apex”, as Brocha is known, doesn’t need any encouragement in these endeavours. The man himself describes this is a “wicked” video and the car as being “absurdly obnoxious”. They might be crazy, but there’s some fantastic imagery to be seen. Check out the video to see how it pans out.

Riding 610ft above the Spanish beach resort of Benidorm, high-wire specialist Mustafa Danger (we kid you not) did this Guinness record breaking stunt.

Danger’s first attempt of crossing the 1,640ft distance (with no safety net) between the Tossal de La Cala and the Gran Hotel Bali was a failure, after he and his assistant, on a frame below the bike to act as ballast got stuck, and had to be towed to safety, but his second attempt was a success.

Mustafa said, “After a year of preparing for this we have achieved both a technical and mental victory. Where others see fear, we see fun, and where they see death we see life.”

The Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour finished last Saturday in Rome and the Italians pulled Nicola Campobbasso out of their bag of tricks for the day. Nicola is also known as the ‘impennatore’ or ‘wheeler’ in the sense of one-wheel stunts, and is particularly famous for the kind of Vespa stunts he can pull off on his bike. The photo above is definitely worth a photo of the day status.

Nicola was out to entertain the crowds with a few wheelies and some stunts with both wheels on the ground, but as it seems he’s capable of more, he let his imagination do the rest. After the jump is a video of the highlights of the final round of the world freestyle championships. We don’t actually get to see Nicola but for the rest…. did we mention the words show ponies?
