This deer almost clips a rider’s head while jumping over him. It’s an amazing piece of film.

i think it's fake. . no one reacted to it.

If it is real, I think the deer probably did it on a drunken bet.

there wasn't really time to react to it. even if people hit thier brakes that deer would have been too fast and the one determing the overall outcome anyway.

Woah!

when ive been hunting ive seen fawns jump some very tall fences, so i know deer have ups. But jumping a moving object thats just nuts.

I'm storing a handgun on my motorcycle.

To keep the deer away.

I think if you look close you can see the guy duck when it's jumping over him. It looks like it jumps behind him more than directly over him though.. still pretty lucky for both the deer and the person.

Yeah, I don't think the deer actually jumped over him. It looks like it tried to, but the motorcycle had technically already passed.

I wonder if deer think they can win in a fight versus a motorcycle... ya know, more so than a car.

Bastards. Don't scratch my chrome.

Shit deer can really jump, when going to college in Wisconsin I was driving my 72 Impala down a country road a deer jumped a tall snow fence right in front of me but his girlfriend jumped a second later and Crash. The damn thing nearly totaled my car and the deer was never found. The cop that came said that pure adrenaline can allow injured deer to drag themselves up 1/4 mile.

Sorry for the thread jack, back to topic.

That rider is lucky he didn't get knocked right off his bike!

Yeah, I've hit 2 over the years in a car, one almost totaled my then new 280Z another almost came through the windshield. Last weekend a motorcycle rider just a few miles from my house died after hitting a deer on the river road.
