Drifting at its worst ( semi-comical )

It started with this, likely seen before:

Super light weight drift spec mean machine.
YouTube - Sikk Arab Bicycle Drifting

Then I found this and thought....cheap fuel makes people crazy and do crazy things !
YouTube - arabic drift

But, this......I have to say I dont think I really want to be anywhere near this kind of drifting....no offense....
YouTube - arabic drift

I suppose the first is comical and it is drifting - it is rwd and shows some talent (though exactly what one I'm not sure.)

The next two are just youtube posts of twats ( the 3rd is just a much bigger one)

Well, I laughed at the first one abit. The second one I thought was funny just as a unexpected thing to do, but not something you see every day in the UK. The 3rd one is dangerous of course and is questionably titled by the uploaders as "drifting". The general dictionary definition of drifting barely covers what we call real drifting as a recognised sport anyway.

This is a video posting section, I post videos for amusment and intrest to the few that find it as such, some post comedy sketches, others post event footage and so on. As public forum, feel free to politly post your veiws and comments, however please be carefull not to step into the the zone considered predjudice as all these video's are all of the Arabic culture, and who knows where I came from, or others veiwing this thread. The Semi-comical remark is at what the countries laws permit its population to do knowingly or not, I and many others find that comical, it also shows peoples use of the term on these youtube uploads , 'drifting', being used in a most innaccurate way - hence the thread "drifting at its worst ( semi-comical)".

But for those who clearly do not find this entertaining so far, after noting a few on the forum asking "how to drift" properly , this may provide some information for these ones and encourage them to try out this sport in the right settings. But please dont leave outwardly negetive comments, it spoils the enjoyment of the forum for others should anyone feel so inclined to do, it would be appreciated.

YouTube - learn how to drift like dk [part1]!

There is a part two also.
