there's this video that is causing lots of noise in my state because this ligurian guy released an earlier interview where he said really funny stuff that didn't mean anything and now he's threatening to sue the uploader who uploaded his parade fail for calling him a bully (meaning a show-off).
He said something about the rear brake pump falling off and having to brake with the front brake.

So I ask you guys on here: is this thing an epic fail of someone trying to show off or a genuine accident?

notice the kid trying to brofist his hero several times.

Here's the version with the interview if any italian reader is around here:

It looks like he sped up and then tried to lock up the back wheel to get it to slide. Slide turned into fall. My conclusion is "epic fail".

I hope we wasn't trying to slide, but it does look like he gunned it and locked up the brakes and then fell.

Serious derpage going on here.

Total fail. He gunned it before going down.
But I wouldnt argue with that guy to his face.
Lol at the kid trying to fistbump.

Locked up the front wheel and lost the front end, plain and simple.

And thanks for parking your bike sideways in the middle of the path.

Looks like he locked the front wheel. I'm guessing alcohol was involved. Luckily nobody standing along the roadway was injured.

What caused it?

His ego trying to write a check his asshole couldn't cash. Good thing he had that helmet on his hand!
