Moto-boys are everywhere. Like bike messengers on motocycles, only totally crazy. They are "unionized" but basically its one big motorcycle gang. The city would be at a stand-still without these guys, because traffic is constant and pretty terrible. The motoboys weave in and out of cars (there are no lanes on the roads) and just go for it.
Three of them die in the city every day. We saw one of them get killed outside while we were shooting--he got hit by a car and flew off his bike into traffic--and then another car ran over his stomach. AH!! I took some footage of them while we were in traffic, you can get an idea of how many there are around here. Moments later we passed a motoboy who had just gotten hit. All the other motoboys swarmed around him...
They are NUTS. if you mess with one of them, they all surround your car and mess YOUR shit up!
The brazillians hate moto-boys. They were happy when we saw one of them down. Yikes! If they cops catch them doing anything illegal they take them in and beat the crap out of them (some cops are on dirt bikes too).
I totally want to get down with a greasy moto-boy.
