Daredevil dies in bike stunt

AN Iranian daredevil died while attempting to break the world record for jumping over buses on a motorcycle.

Javad Palizbanian, 44, was trying to leap over 22 buses parked side by side when his motorbike came down on the 13th bus and he was killed immediately.

The television broadcast the start of Palizbanian’s attempt in Azadi Sports stadium on Friday, but then cut the footage.
