South African skateboarder Decio Lourenco recently took a dangerous run down the busy Kloof Nek road in Tamboerskloof, Cape Town, and filmed as he set off a speed camera with a recorded speed of 100km/h (68mph). The video, posted to YouTube on January 26th, titled "Spoofing the Cam-Kloof Nek," currently has over 220,000 views and has led the authorities to call for Lourenco's arrest. Cape Town official, JP Smith recently spoke to Reuters, saying: "The speed limit is irrelevant. He is seen careering down the road in a reckless and dangerous manner." Indeed, he is, and we think it's awesome. Check out the video in it's entirety below:
