Watch stunter Julien Dupont rip his way through Rio de Janeiro

There are literally thousands of videos on YouTube highlighting riders performing all manners of mind-bending stunts on motorcycles. Most of them merit a passing glance and little more. The video you'll see after the break, featuring French trials rider Julien Dupont, is an exception. You really should watch this video from start to finish.

Brought to us by the energetic group from Redbull, Dupont's antics through city streets and their many obstacles – stairs, poles, walls and cars – are impressive. Coupled with incredible views of Rio de Janeiro and the awestruck looks on the faces of local residents is icing on the proverbial cake. See for yourself by watching the video that we've pasted after the jump.
