Local resident William Chan told CBC : “Never seen anything like this, like seeing a movie.”
Chan said he initially spotted the damaged car before realising where the motorcycle had ended up.
“I was looking down and then I look up and the [motorbike] was above – kind of crazy,” he said.
“Just to see how people are getting it down… Going to be quite interesting.”
Another observer, Jevon Ryan, said: “You’d think it would launch to the sidewalks, to the businesses but to perfectly get up there and wrap itself around.… It’s wow.”
Firefighters later painstakingly worked to bring the motorcycle back down to earth.
Images of the astonishing crash quickly spread online, with users struggling to believe the scene.
One person wrote: “Some insane physics went on here.”
Another joked: “Someone should have told him he can’t park there.”
