What It’s Like To Tear Down An Abandoned Japanese Highway On A Motorbike

What It's Like To Tear Down An Abandoned Japanese Highway On A Motorbike It's The Walking Dead Gumball 3000! Like a real-life version of the short animated movie Ruin, this cameraman thought it would be a fun idea to tear ass down a derelict stretch of road in Japan as fast as possible. Nifty, albeit not advisable!

Semi-related: Norway's techno train.
