it has been done on a lake by a British TT rider Guy Martin and you can find the TV program that was made by him Hydroplaning a bike here....

His credentials speak for themselves Dan, just watch any of his Isle if Man TT footage and you will see why Guy Martin is a legend beyond reproach :good:

He is a bit of a legend, he just loves "the risk" that speed and all it's challenges bring. But saying that I think he is an honourable man, while he is doing what he does he wont get married or even have a girl friend "just in case". If he had some factory support I think he could be another Dunlop.

Definitely a legend. So much so that Randy ( Omega Man ) uses his lawn-mowing quote in his signature :yes:
 
I've seen guys do that for real in person at the sand dunes over a 5' deep depression in the sand filled with rain water. It can be done, whether that video is real or not. I've also seen more people hauled away in ambulances trying very risky stuff at high speeds than I can even remember successes. Speed is key, get enough speed and you do great things like that or fail miserably. Even hitting just water or sand at over 100mph is going to seriously mess you up if you fail, pavement crash with proper gear would be safer, at least you'd just slide on pavement.
