Insane Video of Motorcycle Surfing

What we have here is probably the most insane, mind-warping 4 minutes of moving picture you’ll see for a good long while. DC Shoes teamed up with stunt biker Robbie Maddison for the “Pipe Dream Project”—aka a dirt bike that is able to surf down 20-foot waves.

For more than 2 years, the team worked to create the bike, building a waterproof engine, special fins and custom-designed tires to help the bike hydroplane. The result is the amazing 4-minute film below, which has racked up nearly 4 million views in just 24 hours since being published on YouTube.  

In the film, Maddison shows off the aqua ability of the bike through the river, lagoons, and eventually waves of Tahiti. But you should stop reading this and just press play.
