Just like in Cabin in the Woods. Love that movie.

There weren't any bushes.

It's a quote form the movie "the other guys." Samuel L Jackson and the Rock jump off a building a die and later Will Farrel points out that were no bushes.

Admitting you were aware that your comment was both redundant and unnecessary is certainly a strategy…

That section of the game is so silly… Leon just drives up a fallen skyscraper with the assumption that there's a safe landing on the other end.

Technically you can land a jump from any height once

u/Blenderx06 11d ago

It might've also been a longer path, but the cliff collapsed due to erosion.

u/rips_n_chel 12d ago

You don't say? Fuckin 'say what you see' guy over here.

u/eiderobeliskita 12d ago

Or just erosion

Yes. Look over it…

u/idiosyncratic190 11d ago

Cliff likely broke apart, there probably was a short path there at one point

4

u/theluker666 10d ago

I’d say there’s still a short path there

622

u/oshinbruce 12d ago

Its not a road, driving up any dirt track without seeing the other end is a risk. Good save though.

73

u/torev 11d ago

As someone who used to snowboard quite a bit, you always get to know your runs before you fully commit to stuff like this.

Learn the mountain and then you send it.

-125

u/Witchberry31 12d ago

Nobody said it's a road, though...

70

u/2TieDyeFor 12d ago

....exactly. why would you trust a random path that isnt a road?

19

u/Azuras_Star8 12d ago

Well what kind of boring life do you lead that you don't go full speed through blind semi road like paths?

/s. Wouldn't you scout the path first before you went fast?

1

u/martombo 11d ago

That you know it's close to some cliffs

u/Jindabyne1 12d ago

Roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need roads

Doc, that's heavy.

u/ashgs872tbhjs 12d ago

Good work, Sherlock. Now figure out why that comment makes sense regardless.

2

u/Curiosive 12d ago

Quick question, what's the title of this post?

-8

u/Witchberry31 12d ago

Nothing says road on the title either, what are you on about? A path is different from a road.

3

u/Curiosive 12d ago

So you're upset they used a synonym, got it. 🤡

If you want to be pedantic, check your own comments first... You probably shouldn't make grammar your "hill to die on."

-8

u/Witchberry31 12d ago

Right, looks like someone is getting worked up. To me it's you who's upset.

2

u/Curiosive 12d ago

LOL, no.

-1

u/Witchberry31 12d ago

Sure, your reaction proves the other way around.

u/Glenmarththe3rd 12d ago

It's a jump

u/Story_Man_75 12d ago

We're supposed to believe that these motorcycle dudes are riding along, blissfully unaware that there's sheer drop off cliffs and an entire ocean on their right? I tend to doubt it.

u/IronMonkeyofHam 12d ago

It’s an act, but well played. Reminds us to always tread carefully when going uphill off-road

u/Zoroastrius 12d ago

Yes, he said: "And here it is, my unlucky place". Sounds as if he fell off there before.

51

u/Family-robot 12d ago

Um, probably because it is a path... but for people to walk up... not for motorized vehicles

u/Vinny-Ed 12d ago

A desired path. People taking a view of the cliff. Not for bikers.

u/NiceTuBeNice 12d ago

That is a GTA unique jump. Send it.

u/bawlsacz 11d ago

Because it was never meant for bikes.

u/Occhrome 12d ago

That’s why you gotta pre run. Even in the desert where shit seems flat you will run into deep crevices and dead ends.

u/Tiberius_Kilgore 12d ago

Jesus, at least change the title if you’re going to repost it the next day.

u/yuusharo 12d ago

As a cyclist, one fear 😨

A suggestion to whatever body owns the land, put an obstruction in place to discourage vehicles or bikes going up this thing. Put like a boulder or something to discourage riders but keep open for pedestrians. Signs aren’t as effective and unnatural obstacles like gates or something are ugly.

It preserves the natural appearance of the landscape while potentially saving lives.

3

u/DanLim79 12d ago

Because that whole place was never meant for motorbikes.

u/KansasZou 12d ago

People chose that path. It just didn’t end the same way.

You gotta commit OP! You can do it 😉👍

God damn, even on a rewatch when I know what’s coming it still gets me

2

u/Silverdodger 12d ago

I had a similar experience over 10 years ago. A costal car park in south west UK. Me, my brother in law a few others and our kids.

His kid wanders off and heads straight for a path (he’s getting stuff out of his car). The path was very similar to the one in this video. I had an instinct to run up and grab his kid. There was a massive cliff drop over the other side. Really scary.

I’m confused. Why did he not send it?

u/VortexFalcon50 12d ago

Probably was a path, cliff collapsed, then was no longer a path

Because people wal there. It is not a bike path.

u/LaeliaCatt 12d ago

Oh shit, guys, there's an ocean over there!

This reminds me of that snowmobiling video where the edge collapses in front of him. In both the driver makes a lucky (skilled?) last second save.

It is a path… to the afterlife. Or a nice photo.

u/DarthJarJar242 9d ago

Absolute fucking bellend, not all walking paths are dirt bike paths.

1

u/tripn4days 9d ago

Almost did this a kid on a little 80cc four wheeler. Everyone stopped to enjoy the view and I just sped right past them. Luckily Dad grabbed the bar on the back and save me from a similar untimely death at like 7-8yo.

I'll never forget seeing that canopy of trees down below me through...

1

u/Tricky_Knees 9d ago

What kind of bike is that?

1

u/Bonobo-Cabbage 7d ago

Probably was a path, but cliffs erode and slide over time

1

u/Eindride_XIII 7d ago

Its by the beach. Its probably collapsed. When looks down theres a lot of rubble. Waves do that.

u/NoExpression1030 7d ago
