stunter
 n.Note: This term is familiar to anyone who remembers the Icy Hot Stuntaz Internet meme. «In squad cars and on powerful BMW motorcycles of their own, these officers go after what they regard as a growing problem on the nation’s highways—riders of high-performance motorcycles who use public roads for triple-digit speeds or perilous stunts such as riding while standing or on one wheel. Across the USA, reckless motorcycle “stunters,” as the riders like to call themselves, are being targeted as a hazard to themselves and others.» —“’Stunters’ give cops headache” by William M. Welch in Los Angeles, California Norwich Bulletin (Connecticut) May 28, 2008. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
