Stunt bikers get a kick out of doing the most unbelievable daring acts and while most of them are really dangerous they don't really care about it. Two bikers in the US recently jumped over a partially broken bridge and the video has now gone viral.

According to a media report, two unnamed dirt bikers did a dangerous stunt when they jumped over a partially broken bridge in North Carolina. The adrenaline-driven jump done with safety gear used a plank to take them off the road and into the air before landing on the other side of the 72-foot long gap in the bridge.

The video posted by Colt Howell on Facebook has gone viral with over two lakh views and 4,000 shares but people cannot believe the bikers would do something so dangerous. The bridge has been closed for over seven-months for repairs but the local authorities are now bolted concrete barriers to the bridge so that it would encourage adrenaline junkies to try such stunts.
