I think maybe the guy in front stopped because of the animals driving the van. Why did camera van stop ? I suspect they were stopping because of they were travelling with the performing artists. ---

I agree, don’t get me wrong…it is funny anyway, people in costumes fighting is always funny. But…staged I’m afraid. You can see that the guy getting a kicking is barely being touched at all, the characters are taking it very easy on him. But still funny!

I can’t watch the video from here, but from the conversation, it doesn’t sound like the one where the motorcyclist rear-ends a car at high speed and ends up somersaulting into a spiderman pose on top of the roof - which makes me wonder if the ‘cannot be topped’ claim will hold up… ---

Well, here we have one of those dashboard camera recordings from (where else?) Russia, which have become so popular around the Intarwebs. This one looks like your average “road rage” incident, as filmed from another car that was not involved in the event and kept its distance… OK, an average “road rage” incident, but… with a twist 🙂 And what a twist! XD Honestly, I was not expecting what happened 40 seconds in ^.^ So, without further ado, courtesy of some drivers in Chelyabinsk… Filmed this past August the 30th, at something like 2:40AM… [![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wnsdc7cTPuU) Simply lovely, in my opinion XD ---
