No protective gear whatsoever, flip-flops, and shorts. Darwin award nominee for sure.

I can't freeze frame the video, but I think that poor idiot is short part of his left leg as he goes flying. I feel sorry for his cameraman/friend who heard his last words, "Hey, hold my beer and watch this".

Nope, MG; all major body parts were attached and remained so ... although at the very least he probably ended up with a case of road rash that could win major prizes.  Here's a slightly longer view of the crash (and aftermath).



Notice too how he was not the only idiot who was doing this; looks like there were at least three or four of these Darwin Award wannabes out there.

Thanks for the extended version BB. Indeed, he hit the ground intact. Still not right bright.

Obviously there was a camera man involved, not unlike all those "reality shows".

ATGATT = All The Gear All The Time

Loud pipes save lives. And proper instruction and gear don't?
