      Doesn’t look like his ears were lucky, but yeah, it exploded vertically lucky for him. But God, imagine the destruction a 90 psi tire would do. Fucking crater where you and the car were.

        Big tire(1550lbs/703kg) with big pressure(150psi). That cage is 820lbs/372kg. That is a staggering amount of energy.

        Super high pressure tires are supposed to be taken off and filled inside a tire cage for this reason. There are videos, I remember one where a guy had his clothes blown off, others not so lucky.

    I’ve seen truck tires explode with people literally being blown away, not something you walk away from

    This guy likely will need hearing aides

  Bicycle tires are generally at a higher pressure than car tires. There’s a lot less volume though.
