With less than 7 months of motorcycle riding under his belt,Jesse Lopez knows what it means to stare death in the face, after this horrific head on crash with a County fire truck. The accident happened on Glendora Mountain Road and Glendora Range Road in the Angeles National Forest, near Los Angeles California. Lopez was on his first "mountain road ride" since buying the bike. Lopez says he fixated on the fire truck as he rounded the corner but says at least his choice of target was a good one. "I'm lucky I ran into a fire truck that was able to radio for help." After the accident knocked the camera from his helmet, his friend picks it up at 11:03 and walks around, and captures the scene with the firemen attending to his friend. Judging from the complete destruction of the bike, it's no wonder Lopez is lucky to be alive.
