I saw this the other day. The worrying thing is, that the video ends there. The speed at the end is horrifying and for all we know they could have flown into other equipment head first and died.

What's the American equivalent of a chav? Is it a jock?

A jock's a sportsperson isn't it? Surely it's "white/trailer trash"

That's probably their closest equivalent although it doesn't mean quite the same thing.

I think Chav is a unique UK thing, because trailer trash tend to just be poor and stupid whereas Chavs seem somehow to have an income and can afford "pimped" Novas and Elizabeth Duke jewellery.
