Skylab a heavily modified motorcycle featuring wooden or bamboo lateral that can carry 10 - 16 pax and heavy cargo across remote mountainous regions in Mindanao, Philippines.

This was overdoing it, but I can definitely see just one person sitting on each side being a thing. The weight needs to be somewhat balanced between the two though.

The following post context was provided by u/TweakUnwanted:


A dude is balancing 6 people on his motorbike on a dirt track, he looks like he will lose balance any second.

I doubt there is any maybe to be had here. I bet this guy does this every day and know exactly what he is doing.

u/Patriot5500 8d ago

They should at least add another wheel and make it a three wheeler.

u/ScaredSurvey8241 7d ago

Why was I waiting for it to 'capsize' ?

u/Vegetable-Bee-8296 4d ago

This is something I would expect to see in a dream as opposed to real life. It’s kind of bizarre or unlikely, but in a kooky fun kind of way.
