FIRE APPARATUS VS MOTORCYCLE:

GoPro video shows 24-year-old Jesse Lopez racing on April  1 with another biker, when he hit a blind curve and crashed into the apparatus. His GoPro camera went flying off his helmet and captured him laying on the ground as it flew in the air.
Lopez's friend picked up the camera, as Firefighters rushed to help Lopez, who suffered two compound fractures in his left leg and a severely broken arm, and was airlifted to a trauma center. Mr L wants to share the video in hopes of saving other riders from his life-changing lesson.
