Disturbing bike Wreck

My friend sent me this link and I found it really disturbing but I thought to post it. Don't get a bike, especially if you won't respect it

that is rough for sure... wow..

I doubt he felt anything... for his head to bash through the rear gate..... he died on impact im sure. I cant imagine what he was thinking when he knew he was gonna hit.

That looks like a suicide not an accident. No one would drive directly into the back of a semi, either moving or parked.

I find this picture hard to believe and here's why: I also have two Sportbikes and have had 6 total in the past 7 yrs. None Crashed either.
1. The paramedic holding the flashilight, if this was a fatal accident, the cops would have arrived first and there are no cops in front of the semi, can't see any lights. The entire road would have been blocked off front and back of the semi so you would have been able to see something.
2. The picture of the bike, look at what's on the back seat. A red baseball hat. So if this guy was going 120 or even 100 the hat would have come off. Trust me I know from personnel expierence.

Now it could be real and I could be horrible wrong and if that's the case then I'm sorry for his family. But in this day an age of Photoshopping stuff, ya just never know. ohh and one more thing. Where did this gu get these photo's cause if I was the parents and this was on the net there would be some answering to do and a possible lawsuit. Fatal accidents photos are not released unless authorized by the Next of Kin.

Several media outlets (local papers/television stations) reported on the accident and you can read the full account on the web. It's real and some of the guy's friends have even commented/confirmed on various biking forums.

HEPA laws dictate that medical personnel cannot take photos and then release them without permission from family. If they're on a public road and someone has close enough access, those pictures can be taken and distributed. Also, just because we haven't heard of any outcries over the release of the pictures, doesn't mean it hasn't happened.
