Early controlled glide testing. Led directly to space shuttle and probably to ICBM/MIRV tech.

It's the Flying Bathtub, a lifting body design prototype.  It's currently being towed by that C-47 up there.

Going Sideways in a Wheelie is the most fun!

On a motorcycle, on ice, has to be the most badass way to do it!

Following the arc the rear tire traveled, he's not going sideways.  That's all grip.

Would dragging that to the junk yard count as a mercy killing?  

I'm not sure what the poor thing started life as.  I tried a Googlymoogly image search, but their AI neural networks are wrong this time.  It offered me an Alfa 156.  Nope, that's like confusing beauty with the beast, only the other way round!Image result for alfa romeo 156
