Wow! hi-speed photography of a motorcycle race

If you're a fan of motorcycle racing, or a fan of photography/video at insanely fast frame rates, or a student of practical physics, you must watch this video. You can see things happening that people never normally see. Tire flexing that looks scary. Frame and body flexing that looks like the whole bike is about to come apart. Tires landing after a slight wheelie where it looks like a crash is imminent. This is pretty wild. I love high-speed photography and video... I'm really quite interested in real-world physics, so seeing what's happening to the bike during these turns is just fascinating to me.
