The front suspension only weighs 14 lbs. It would collapse if braced against a wall. Result would have been similar. Might have climbed the wall and landed on top of me. (Over 2500 ft-lbs of torque on the rear tire.)
The best way is confine operation of the bike to the drag strip.

Bill,
Yep same what happened to me - almost had it stopped!
BTW never depend on the front brake for wheel spins - always use a wall to rest the front wheel, but I guess you know that now!

I'm fine, really.
They edited the video, chose the pictures, and wrote the commentary to
"enhance" the drama.
I _almost_ had it stopped. I needed about another 10 feet or so (where I
personally stopped.)
