Race, touring, cruiser or chopper, who cares as longs as it has two wheels and an engine.

Get your eyes checked! This happened to me and three other riders this past summer 2010. I was #2 (2009 Honda GL1800)and the first I saw of the Deer was over the lead drivers (2007 Harley)right shoulder and through his windshield. The Deer was standing on the road facing us and with no time to maneuver lead tensed up for impact but at the last possible moment the Deer jumped into the air and as lead driver went under the Deer its hoofs clipped his left mirror and as he went passed the Deer its hoofs knocked off his anntena mounted on the rear carrier. Now picture this. As rider #2 the Deer was now in the air at my eye level and stretched out fully. I had been braking so fortunately the Deer landed just in front (c) 1 foot and to my right and as I passed my right saddlebag brushed the Deer. Can't get much closer than that.

Yes, deer do jump out in the road all the time, but that doesn't mean this video is real. It's a mediocre computer-edited fake. Whoever edited it did a credible job for an amateur, but it doesn't hold up to scrutiny. I've exported this video to individual image frames and marked with straight vectors where the deer is in each frame using points in the landscape as reference. Once he gets out in the road, he moves in the same plane as the bike he's jumping rather than moving directly across the road. IOW, the deer is moving sideways. Where he ends up is nowhere near where he starts out. Essentially, they had to do this to get the image to appear to be jumping over the bike without it hitting the bike in the other lane (the one the camera is following). The timing didn't work out perfectly, so they had to skip the deer sideways a bunch in each of the later frames. Sorry, but it's clearly and unequivocally 100 percent fake. It’s fake.
