Movie: The worlds Fastest Indian. Feb release

[Ironman]

I saw the previews for this when I was in Australia last. Awesome. My favorite bit of the trailer is when the cop clocks the old dude on an old bike at 150-160mph.

The film stars Anthony Hopkins as Burt Munro, a New Zealander who designed the world’s fastest 1920 Indian motorcycle and then took it to Utah where he set the land-speed world record at The Bonneville Salt Flats in the 1970s.

Quotation below from Burt in an accident .

110mph the bike got into a sudden fast speed wobble. I jumped off the side and rolled and skidded and bounced 15 feet high they tell me. I finished up in the hospital for seven and a half weeks. When I finished the crash I had bash hat still on, waistband of pants, tennis shoes and pieces of socks. I was only slightly concussed. It was missing flesh, and skin took building up again. One finger was ground half way through the bone but still works but one joint is crook

Note: If I stuck this in art and entertainment none of the motor heads would notice it.
