Default ' ghostride the whip '

taken from a hip hop forum i post on


Ghost riding the whip has become a nationwide phenomenon thanks to E-40's 2006 breakout hit "Tell Me When To Go," and now kids across America and joining in on the fad.

The Associated Press reports that in December the fad -- which is a stunt where a driver jumps out of his car while in motion and dances around or/and on top of the slow moving vehicle -- claimed the lives of two people.

18-year-old Davender Gulley died after his head slammed into a parked car while he was hanging out the window of an SUV in Stockton, police said. And in October, a 36-year-old man, whose name is unknown, dancing on top of a moving car fell off, fatally hitting his head in what authorities said was Canada's first ghost riding fatality.

The act is part of the Bay Area's burgeoning hyphy movement, and has become widespread via media spotlight and homemade videos on YouTube.

"It did not take Einstein to look at this thing and say this was a recipe for disaster," said Pete Smith, a police spokesman in Stockton told the AP. "We could see the potential for great injury or death."

Ghost riding has also led to numerous injuries throughout 2006, leading police in the Bay Area to ban it all together, but it manages to go on, despite it being barred.

Oakland rapper, Mistah FAB, even gives you a lesson on how to do it, in his newest single, "Ghost Ride It" (see "Mistah FAB Teaches Ghost Riding 101 In New Video") -- "Pull up. Hop out, all in one motion. Dancing on the hood, while the car still rollin'," the rapper says on the track.

"No matter what they say about the hyphy movement, everybody wants to know, what the hell is ghost riding it," Mistah FAB told BallerStatus.com on the set of his video. "That's all they care about, so I'm showing them; giving them a 101 on how to ghost ride."

According to the AP, 17-year-old Joe Calderon, of San Diego, posted a YouTube video of himself dancing alongside his moving, driverless 2005 Mazda. "We love that style of music," he said. But "my mom wasn't too thrilled about it."

Although the music industry is seeing it as one of the next waves of successful fads, helping their Bay Area artists to stardom, police see it differently.

Stockton police said they have written more than 1,500 citations and impounded about 400 vehicles since late March for sideshow antics.

The spontaneous nature of the sideshows -- which are staged on interstates, in deserted parking lots, and on downtown streets -- keeps police guessing. Departments have spent millions in overtime policing the outlaw rallies.

Mistah FAB even openly admitted that sideshows have gotten a little out of hand, stating that they are so big, organizers charge admission. "It would be like a ghetto NASCAR," he said to the AP.

What an idiot in the first post. Had I been doing it, I would have got back in as the thing started to touch the curb instead of carrying on acting an ass!

I haven't seen it before. But I'm surprised at it, it looks a piece of piss.

I imagine the danger starts when people realise just how easy it is to put your car on a mile-long straight road rolling at idle in 1st gear and get out of it. They up the stakes and try it faster and in smaller spaces etc, then people get hurt/killed.

Imagine trying to explain that ot the insurance company. "Well..I was ghostriding my whip on the boot when this dude came out of nowhere and got into my car and drove off"..."

I blame Michael J Fox.
If he hadn't started the craze in Teen Wolf way back in 1985, then this would never had been thought of...
