A camera films a motorcycle moving by itself

[Dalia]

In the footage, two motorcycles can be seen parked in the street in front of a house. Seconds after the video started, one of the bikes started moving on its own.

It moves in a circular motion and then suddenly falls to the ground. No human can be seen in the video.

Do you have a explanation ?

Video restricted by the owner.....

I give the link of the video and where does it is said that the video is restricted by the owner ?

 

[Gdjjr]

That
thats what it says

 

[Sunsettommy]

I see a large black box showing the words: "Video geo-restricted by owner"

It’s a euro source that restricts by region.

 

[Dalia]

Ok, sorry about that i ask a modo to take out my thread

The restriction don't appear for me but i ask a modo to take out the thread .

 

[QuickHitCurepon]

This is probably the video.

You don't have to now.

Got a call one night, while I had M60-A3 Tanks fully loaded with main gun, .50 Cal and 7.62 ammo sitting on a tank range over-nite, hatches padlocked with armed guards on ground and in tower. One of the padlocked tanks with nobody in it cranked up drove down range over hilly terrain, made a turn back up hill pointing back toward the tower and stopped with main gun and coax pointing at the tower. This scared the FK out of tower guards, who called it in, demanding somebody come to the range immediately, as they were not about to approach a fully loaded tank that had driven itself downrange and apparently turned back and stopped with weapons trained on their position. Pretty exciting crap for young troops with a young E-5 Sergeant in charge at night out in the middle of nowhere miles out from main post.

Thank you i wrote to the modo again so now i could keep my thread

Slight grade. Wheel lock probably on. Stand not fully engaged or in a soft spot. I have seen exactly this happen before. More than once. Go in a store, come back out, bike's on the ground. It's one reason you should butt one of the wheels up against the curb, preferably the back wheel.

Sticky throttle.

 

[Dalia]

Thanks for your explanations But the motorcycle is immobilized for a long time before moving and he makes a turn ?

The turn might be due to the front wheel being locked, a security measure found on most motorcycles. Though, even if the wheel isn't locked, the motorcycle will tend to turn at low speed, because nobody is holding the handlebars. I don't recommend you try it, unless you want to lay down your bike.

What can happen is that, if forces acting to move the bike (probably gravity, in this case) are tenuously balanced out by the static friction of the ground against the tires, the tiniest force (wind, vibrations from a passing truck) can act with gravity to overtake the static friction. The bike would then begin to move.

Just my best guess.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

I call bullshit.
There's a wire involved,when it stopped when it hit the curb that should have been it if it was rolling on it's own.
The sudden jerk after it had stopped rolling is the giveaway.

Not at all. Once again friction and opposing force both within the motorcycle drivetrain and of the wheels against a curb can bring the vehicle to a stop or near stop. Then, you have a state, however short lived, of static friction holding it in place. When static friction is overcome, the "jerking" can happen.

Ever move a fridge? You push on it until the static friction gives way. This force doesn't just decrease slowly. It often disappears quickly, leading to a quick acceleration, or "jerk" of the fridge.

Ever force open a stuck door? Did it slowly accelerate, or did it "jerk"?

And we haven't even gotten into what the transmission could have been doing. The bike slipping into or out of gear would cause all kinds of jerky motion and could quickly accelerate or decelerate a coasting motorcycle, regardless of if the motor is contributing to turning the shaft or pinion gear.

Enough to jump a curb? Hardly.
If the bike was in gear it sure as hell wouldnt have rolled at all.
What a stuck door has to do with this is anyone's guess let alone a fridge.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Sure. You don't think gravity can make a motorcycle with round wheels jump a curb? You think magical forces are a more reasonable explanation? Now that's silly.

If the bike was in gear it sure as hell wouldnt have rolled at all.

But you assume a transmission in perfect working order. Why is it people can have a so much easier time using their imagination amd creative thinking when it comes to magical nonsense, then cant seem to use it within the parameters of the laws of physics? This is one reason people adopt so many nonsensical, magical beliefs.

Take half that time and effort you are pouring into imagining and trying to argue for magical hoohah, and put it into thinking how these events could happen within the laws of physics.
