An elderly man in Mexico almost killed himself when he crashed his motorbike while showing off to a group of female bus passengers.
The daring motorcyclist can be seen on a cellphone video standing up on his motorbike before starting to swerve on the busy road as fellow vehicle drivers tried to keep their distance.
He continued to erratically speed up and stood on both pedals while the women cheered him on.
The man then extended his leg and placed it on top of a basket fixed to the rear of the dirt bike and bounced the moped up and down.
As the women continued to laugh at the daredevil biker, he lowered his head between the handlebars and accelerated.
His momentum sent him and his dirt bike tumbling over the median and into oncoming traffic lane.
Fortunately, the man avoided crashing head on against the metal post.
The extent of the man's injuries are unknown.
