Top Gear to attempt motorbike double loop stunt

Top Gear Live are to seeking to take their world record-setting double loop-the-loop stunt to another level - using a motorcycle instead of a four-wheel vehicle.

The motorcycle stunt attempt follows on from the successful double loop-the-loop - called the "Deadly 720+" - in a four-wheel-car in South Africa back in June

Organisers say the motorcycle stunt is much more difficult because the motorcycle and rider weighs less and will therefore need more speed to complete the loops. An added issue is that if something goes wrong, there is no protection for the rider
