Hey why don't we have a U.S. Military Motorcycle Stunt Team? Is it because Harleys Can't Jump?

...why? How did they decide THAT was a cool stunt?
I guess I'd be a little more impressed if he was naked while doing that...

how did they decide that it was a cool stunt? because exploding tube lights a fricking riot.
As a teenager, I once discovered a huge stash of burnt out tubelights. They were out of a government building. Apparantly there wasn't an official disposal procedure with paperwork, so all the burned out ones went to the stash.
I grabbed one and started making like Luke Skywalker and broke it. a delicious combination of decompressing air going whabumf! along with the musical clattering of fine grade glass as it shattered. I went nuts. I smashed them all. lots and lots the first day, then started to ration them to make them last. Some of most deeply satisfying pleasure I've had in my life.
So a stack of tubelights, and drive a motorcycle through them? weeee! hahaha!
the indian army riding team is nuts. like this:

201 men making a pyramid on 10 motorcycles, each of which was a 50 year old design and with all of 12-15 real hp (claimed 18).

Unless they use aged flourescents, which have been replaced in the light fixtures, it might get expensive.
If they have to use new ones, how about mounting them in polycarbonate tubes? That way the riders would most likely bounce off. Remember, the ride test bikes have already been written off by the manufacturers. And the owners of MO can pay the survivors' heirs some nominal amount..
