It seems like a crazy spot to take a shortcut, but this ride was caught on a trucker's dashcam making this crazy scramble across one side of an eight-lane motorway.
You've probably seen people do crazy things on bikes, but the guy in this clip from Canada really is a special kind of crazy.
He can clearly be seen darting across the four-lane carriageway of this highway as vehicles speed towards him.
And one can only assume that when he reaches halfway he's going to lift the bike over the partition and dash across the other carriageway to complete his shortcut.
The clip has been posted by YouTube user Wayne Edward who said it was the camera in his vehicle that captured thee cyclist taking his life into his hands.
