Yup can't watch it on my phone with the crappy signal but if its the one I've seen he gave too much front brake and it launched him, He would have been way better off giving a little throttle and pretended he was Fonzie and rode it out.

That's crazy how the entire rear end was lifted up like that. Rule #2 Don't lead.

If this is what you call going out for a ride with friends....

You need to find a new hobby.
I especially like the one of them riding up the rain gutter.

What do the anti-helmets have to say about that?

#1- he probably would have been ok without a helmet
Or
#2- it didn't matter because he probably got shot later that day.

I was wondering did he hit the front brake as he hit the speed bump.
