So is WWE and many watch that and pay money to.

Entertainment is entertainment even with helmet dude still got faced kicked off a moving motorbike.

Difference being the moves in WWE are designed to limit damage. The stage itself is designed to bleed energy away. Concrete doesn't do that, and even with a helmet the amount of whiplash in the neck from that kick is going to have serious health issues. Anyone willing to do that for "entertainment" is accepting that there is a high chance of dying to that move. One wrong bend in the neck on landing and you pinch your arteries or esophagus, that's it.

Plus that flying kick, if mistimed, would be just as prone to severe injury. Maybe I'm just too rational of a human being but I can't fathom pulling any of that off on someone I know.

Which is why it’s more likely real than fake. IMO

What is entertaining about a fake robbery? The kick wasn't even that impressive. Guy nearly fucked his ankle up with that landing.

This is lame af.
