A brazen biker avoided death by inches before he was banned from driving by police who spotted his 100mph death-defying stunts online.

Benjamin Males, 22, was busted by a social media post which attracted more than one million views after it was uploaded in April.

The video sees the reckless motorcyclist speed at 89mph in 50mph zones in wet conditions before racing along at 97mph on a country road.

Last week he was disqualified from driving for 18 months after which he must pass an extended test to get his licence back.

In the hair-raising clip shot around Shrewsbury and Wem, Shropshire, Males can first be seen hurtling along on one wheel as he speeds down a country road.
