A deer clears a motorcycle by inches on Harley Davidson People

The rural-road close call brings an unusually fast audience and a busy discussion about braking around wildlife.

Channel: Harley Davidson People Story of October 25, 2026Trari Newsroom

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 68,555 views a day, 9.7 times a normal first day on this channel (7,082).

That Deer Was Way Too Close 😳

The rider stays upright and keeps going. Behind the motorcycle, the deer lands on the asphalt and runs off, ending a close encounter captured in a brief action-camera clip.

Posted by Harley Davidson People as "That Deer Was Way Too Close 😳", the Short shows a deer springing from the right shoulder of a tree-lined road. It passes directly in front of the bike and jumps past the rider's left side. There is no spoken commentary, just the encounter itself.

The clip drew about 39,000 views in nine hours, already well beyond the channel's usual full-day audience for a Short. Its comment section is unusually busy, too: viewers discuss whether the rider should have stopped sooner and the risk of more animals following the first across the road.

It is a change from the stretched choppers and custom machines featured in the channel's recent uploads. But unexpected road encounters have a place here, too: its most-watched regular video follows Sturgis rally riders caught in a South Dakota hailstorm.
