Is this a new video?  I feel like I saw something similar years ago.  Maybe crashing your bike and sticking the landing is the new light-yourself-on-fire "challenge"?

Date on the video says 2014, and Lana Del Rey's "Summertime Sadness" is playing, so...yeah, old.

It's months, if not years old.
*checks date in vid*
Yep, 2014. Still a nice balancing act though.

A yet we've got to link to Boing Boing that requires you accept cookies instead of liking directly to YouTube. It's obvious that Boing Boing is paying some bills around here. I can't wait until ebaumsworld becomes a sponsor.

Except 'Mat'" is the Russian word for "mother", and "ebena" is "farking", so it's more like "Motherfarker!".

So, the YouTube algorithm suggested some old shiat to (whatever someone who contributes to Boing Boing would call themselves). That person writes an "article" about said old shiat, and that qualifies as "content", which then justifies the delivery of whatever advertising Boing Boing sold recently. And subby, who either works for Boing Boing (getting tired of that stupid farking name already), or is a boomer or old genxer who doesn't understand how social media feeds work, thought we should see and read about the old shiat. And the mods agreed.

Do I have that all right?

Pretty sure the car with the camera got rear-ended after doing the right thing and slowing down when the motorcycle crashed. There's a moral there somewhere.

I should say that the root for "farking" is "eben'", and the "a" on the end is to make the verb agree with the gender of the subject.

IIRC, this is the exclamatory version.   If you're saying to someone as an insult, you'd go with "Yob' tvoyu mat'", which is "fark your mother".

Don't get me wrong, the act itself seems like they were shooting a scene from Winter Solder.  Plus, don't all Russians have to take 7 years of gymnastics as kids or did my QAnon source lie to me again?

That's only for the girls.   The boys have to take 7 years of hockey, unless they are fancy lads, in which case gymnastics may be substituted.   For girls in sensible shoes, they have to train to be Russian runway models:

Actually, the root *ROOT* is simply "Eb'", the Russian word for "fark".

And you can conjugate that word so that "Yep", which Yakov Smirnoff used for effect.

> Ебена мать

= Holy shiat.

maybe that should be Святая рубашка which google says is the translation of holy shirt.

I came across that somersault video many years ago while searing for the idiom родился в рубашке.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caul
The Russian phrase родился в рубашке (rodilsya v rubashke, literally, "born in a shirt") refers to caul birth and figuratively means "born lucky". It is often applied to someone who is oblivious to a pending disaster that is avoided only through luck as if the birth caul persists as supernatural armor, and in this sense commonly appears in titles or descriptions of Russian dashcam videos.

So a version of dumb luck or "God looks after children, animals and idiots."
