One rider dressed all in black is seen rearing his motorbike onto the back wheel while driving down the lane lines surrounded by other vehicles.
The car where the dash cam footage came from then moves into the inner lane, revealing a second motorcyclist performing the same dangerous trick just a moment later.
However, the rider quickly loses control and is tipped off balance after raising the bike onto one wheel.
In a horrifying moment, the rider is seen going backwards as the bike flips, coming off the seat and hitting the highway as sparks fly from the impact of both him and the bike scraping the road.
