What to do and how to do it.

Why is it that after Christmas you have all of these presents and yet a couple of weeks after you are twiddling your thumbs. Personally I am not into reading but I got this book for Christmas call
'The Worst Case Scenario Survival Handbook' from the series of books and before a event which happens to me which I could of prevented if read this book I put my Big foot feet down and picked up the book.

You DO come across some really extreme situations in the book and one I found was 'How to Leap From A Motorcycle to a Car' and just for your pleasure I will tell you what it says just for your amusement:
For even more amusement; I have added my own comments in about them.


'How to Leap From A Motorcycle to a Car'

If you are trying to enter the car through one of its windows, remember that in many newer cars, only the front windows roll all the way down. You should attempt to be on the front passenger side

1) Wear a high-quality helmet and a leather jacket plus leather pants and boots.
(Comment. So the things you should be wearing on a motorcycle.)

2) Make sure both vehicles are moving at the same speed.
The slower the speed, the safer the move. Anything faster than sixty miles per hour is extremely dangerous.
(Comment. So don't leap from the motorcycle to the car on a motorway and IF IT ISN'T DANGEROUS ENOUGH)

3)Wait for a long straight section of road
(Comment. Not a roundabout)

4) get the vehicles as close as possible to each other.
You will be on the passenger side of the car, so you will be very close to the edge of the roadway. Be careful not to swerve.

5) Stand crouched with both of your feet on either the running board to the seat

6) Hold the throttle until the last instant.
Remember, as soon as you release the throttle the bike speed will decrease.
(Comment. Well NOOOOO.)

7) If the car has a handle inside (above the door) grab it with your free hand.
If not, Simply time the leap so your torso lands in the car. If someone can grab you and pull you in, all the better

8) Have the driver swerve away from the bike as soon as you are inside.
Once you have released the handle bars, the bike will go out of control and crash. It may also slip under the rear passenger wheel of the car.

9) If you miss the window tuck and roll away from the vehicles (see page 82 fir jumping out from a moving car.)
(Comment. Or get run over.)

Be Aware
The move is much easier if two people are on the motorcycle so that the non-jumper can continue driving
(Comment and leave which the Motorcycle crashes)

In the movies and in the stunt shows, these transfers are usually performed at slow speeds, and in fact often employ the use of a metal step installed on one side of the bike or car, which allows the rider to step off while keeping the bike balanced. You are no likely to have this option.
(Comment. As they said, In the movies' which is not real life, so why mention it. This book just wasted ink and killed a tree. Bad people.)
