The oldest trick in the world

BMW S 1000 RR tablecloth trick

BMW is at it again with this new video promoting their S1000RR motorcycle. The image above tells you what the trick is, but can the bike make the trick work? Watch the clip below to see what happens next…

[Thanks to Wayne for the tip]




Of course, it’s no surprise to see that the trick worked. The question is, was it real, or has it been faked?

    Not Faked.

    The bike has a huge amount of power. The cloth is not heavy line, it looks very thin and light ? silk or something similar. They probably “assisted” the stunt by using liberal amounts of lubricant beneath the table and the cloth, eg silcon or graphite etc.

    Good ad!

    0-100 in 2.9s. I don’t doubt it was real.
