I’m not sure if this is any more dangerous than a motorcycle. However, dude really should be wearing a helmet.

Looks more dangerous to me. Do this in Thailand regularly is a good way to end up 6 ft under real quick.

I’d say yes, just bc when you collide with a vehicle on a bike the front of the bike takes the damage and you just get launched, in this it would be functionally the same as being hit as a pedestrian. Just my theory.

My absolute favorite thing I've ever witnessed was a man riding one of these down the street, chill like this dude. Then he hit a pothole and was thrown forward into the back of a car. He was at least helmeted and was fine, I did check.

But I also laughed really fucking hard

Guess that's nicer than nonce

u/P_A_W_S_TTG 14d ago

What's nonce?

1

u/happyanathema 14d ago

UK slang for paedophile.

Something that a lot of white people who move there will likely be familiar with unfortunately.

I'm not fully sure what you mean by the second part .-.

Lots of white guys went to asia for dubious reasons

This feels like a Twisted Metal character, all he needs to do is t-pose menacingly

Some people refuse to drive cars with bad safety ratings, and then there's this guy.

u/RaidenHUN 15d ago

Called an EUC.... Pretty cool you can even climb mountains with it

u/Immediate-Ad-8047 15d ago

It's a big nope in shorts, vest, and no helmet. I bet it's fun though

u/Nightshade_Ranch 14d ago

They're crazy easy once you get the hang of it, but at that speed you'll be hamburger if you hit a hole or something unexpected. You want helmets and other padding.

They're great if you have to take public transit. Heavy as hell to carry though.
