Amateur Motorcycle Stunt Filming Goes Horribly Wrong

VAN BUREN, Ark. -- One man is dead and another is in serious condition after a motorcycle stunt maneuver went wrong.

"They were filming the footage for YouTube," said Ron Brown, Crawford County's Deputy Sheriff.

Authorities said the motorcycle driver was traveling northbound on Thornhill Street, when he lost control and hit his friend who was standing in the street video taping.

That man was taken to a nearby hospital, where he later died. The driver is listed in serious condition.

Officials said the motorcycle was traveling between 115 and 120 miles per hour. Some residents who live off Thornhill Street said racing is common on their road.

"The cars that we see come through here are Camaros and Nissan sports cars," said Brandon Jordan. "They need to slow down because it's dangerous out here."

Residents said in the past police have patrolled the street in an effort to cut down on speeders.

Authorities said the driver of the motorcycle may face charges of reckless driving.

he died at the hospital, not on impact... im sure he felt plenty from the time he was hit, and it took 15 minutes for the EMS to arrive, and fifteen minutes back to the hospital, and his eventual death.

"bro.... my only regret, is that you're my bro"

I dont understand these idiots. the person who wrote it is a dumbfuck too. driver is implying you're operating a CAR, not a bike, which you are a RIDER or OPERATOR of.
