I remember a few months ago when I crashed that I was wearing this thick metallica t-shirt. I shit you not, I slided for about 4 to 7 meters face down on asphalt road. I got 2nd degree burns in my hands and knees but my chest and abdomen were pristine, and the t-shirt held on perfectly, it ripped near my neck but that was all. I was really impressed with the quality of that t-shirt. All in all, it taught me that speeding's a really bad idea, and an even worse idea with no protective gear on.

That's exactly how I was taught how to drive a car, that the most important thing to know (after you've started getting the skills to be able to drive) is insight into traffic and drivers' mentalities i.e. quirks. It's something I've always taken to heart and constantly do, even as a pedestrian. Applying this way of thinking on my bike has helped to keep me as safe as I can be. Loved the videos with you teaching Nikki, felt very similar to my girlfriend and I. Keep up the good work!

You know bikers who don't wear any protective gear don't care right? I wore my gear all the time and would poke fun at the idiots who wore their sandals, shorts and a t-shirt. Gear is king. When a close friend of mine crashed his Gixxer 1000 at high speed 20 years ago, even though he wore a full suit, boots, gloves etc, he managed to walk away with a plate and screws in his ankle, a minor TBI, and the 6th vertebrae in his neck cracked. The bike didn't have anything on it that was salvageable. If he wasn't wearing his gear he, well, would be hear today. He told me about how someone who wasn't wearing gear was in the hospital the weekend he crashed and had road rash head to toe and how he would hear this person screaming everyday when the nurses were in changing the bandages.

Not going to read the comments to see if anyone has said this and even if, it’s worth repeating. It is critical that the riders helmet goes with him to the hospital on the ambulance. Most medics remember this, but things happen. If you’re on scene and the helmet gets taken off, keep up with it and make SURE it gets on that ambulance with the rider. Something else to consider is a quick clot kit available everywhere. I live in Southwest Louisiana and when I’m not at work , I’m fishing, hunting or riding my motorcycle. Never know when it may be needed.

Having been in scouts my whole youth, and been with my local VFD for a spell, its great to see this kind of info being put out there!

I have my MSF in two weeks, bought my gloves and boots already and plan on buying the other parts later this week

I have been in many of these situations and I didn’t know this much stuff having been in the military, but was not in the medical field. This is very informative, and could save lives! Thank you sir. 💪✊

Priceless information, thank you for sharing.

That other rider knew he was going down as soon as he seen him brake

8:50 I agree, but the last on the list should be the motorcycle to ride on.

As a (rookie) motorbike rider, I really benefit from your videos. Thanks Dan. Drive safely fam!

Very informative videos, man. I am looking to get my motorcycle endorsement, and your videos are helpful to show what to look for, how to navigate situations, and (more importantly) what NOT to do as a rider. Keep coming with the content.

My notification said "dandanthefireman uploaded his final motorcycle ride"

Looks like seeing another rider caused him to speed up to catch up but then realized his exit was coming up but was going way too fast to slow down enough. Long story short, "when showing off goes wrong".

Yes Dan.. Definitely.. more information about safety procedures are always helpful.. I hope I can(but also hopefully I won't need to) incorporate these techniques in the future to another rider in need when I do get my motorcycle license in the future..

This was good of you to cover DanDan, hope to never find myself in this situation but good to know some basics we all learned a lot.

Look like he target fixated the curb and panic break not making a right turn he just went wide because of the soeed

Most definitely. No counter steering, no body position correction, guy has NO idea how to ride. The right turning lane was lucky, led him onto the grass and saved his skin

Oh man cleaning that road rash is going to hurt. Hope they have a speedy recovery!

I love watching these crashes as a pre motorcycle rider. Good to scare me into never doing dumb/reckless shit.

Dan, I really appreciated this class. I have previously been Tactical Combat Casualty Care, LEO First Responder, Combat Lifesaver, and EMT certified. I would definitely appreciate more scenario based classes like this and it has reminded me that I need to get re-certified with EMT and TCCC. I have actually been the first responder to a horrific car crash with 5 involved, 3 ejected from the vehicle at 80+ mph. This kind of info is spot on. The patient I was working on ended up dying. They had serious internal injuries. The EMS crew that showed up some half an hour after the wreck was extremely impressed with how I handled and delegated tasks. It made me feel better that they said there was nothing else I could do to save the man’s life. I had given him the best chance at survival through all my training.

It still boggles my mind about gear, especially if you know that sometime during the ride you’re going to be going a significantly high speed, There’s no excuse not to wear the gear there’s enough videos out here showing proof of what happens I guess some people just don’t care they figure it just won’t happen to them

I can’t comprehend how people can ride out their on their bikes with a shirt, tennis shoes, no gloves, no helmet or gear of any kind. I feel naked if I don’t even wear my boots, let alone no gear at all

Yes, please teach more, I enjoy your teaching and gaining insight

"looks like mostly bark dude." translation for non australians," looks like mostly skin, dude." ( tree bark =skin in aussie slang.)

Man... Looking at the damage done to that helmet... Truly terrifying. Don't even want to begin to imagine what it would look like had he not used a helmet...

Thanks Dano! Great analysis and debrief. Thanks

Excellent video thanks mate

Whose final ride was it or is this a misleading title?

So, sincerely if he can afford a bike like this, he should afford some gear.

To be honest, it looks like a late 90's GSX 750F (also known as Katana). You can pick them up really cheap, like, under $2000 cheap. This is the kind of bike you get when you can't afford rent, but want to go fast.

They call them squid missiles for a reason. You can get a 170mph bike for 1000 bucks with some looking. Got nothing to do with your wallet.

Greetings from a fellow EMT and rider in South Africa! fantastic video and review of an incident I saw on another channel Dan, I will be sharing this one far and wide. Given our hot summer weather, and culture, this is how SO many of us here ride.....

I would love to see some videos on turnqits and log rolls! I haven’t signed up for class yet, but have bought a few things :) I really appreciate that you make these videos, and I’ve been talking them up at all the bike shops I’ve been to, while I’m buying my first set of gear :)

It just amazes me that people ride sportbikes with so little gear! Hopefully he learns his lesson from this one.

ABS and proper gear couldve saved him some skin

Looks like they were not buddies maybe? The biker was turning right, while he was going straight on. Prob a little showmanship around another biker, very common. I thought it odd his helmet came off.

What a great baseline of knowledge shared in one decent bite. This would be a great part of education during motorcycle training, just this one hour lesson. I remember we had no lesson like this at all during my training about 15y ago. Well done sir.

great vid, thanks. please do put together a complete course video, that'd be awesome.
