Is it safe to stunt by yourself?

Is it safe to stunt by yourself?
I ride by myself and don't have a cellphone. I pretty much suck at stunting, but I try. Would you stunt if you were by yourself and crashing could be a factor?

chances are if you stunt, you try to do it somewhere that people wont see you, that there is little traffic, and if you do it alone and crash, without a cell phone, then you are pretty much bleeding in a ditch till someone finds you somehow
not a good idea if you ask me

i do it everyday,only 2 other people i ride with regurlay try to stunt,everyone else rather have pretty bikes ,and them 2 that stunt never want to go out,maybe 1 time a week or every 2 weeks,so it gets pretty ****ing boring especially when i do acomplish something new and want to show someone and theres nobody there to tell about it but id rather go out by myself then sit at home waiting for somebody to join me,BUT YOU KNOW THAT IF YOU GET A CELLPHONE IF ITS NOT HOOKED UP YOU CAN STILL CALL 911 WITH IT,EVEN THOUGH YOU DONT HAVE SERVICE,ALL PHONES ARE LIKE THAT,SO PICK UP A USED PHONE AND JUST KEEP IT CHARGED INCASE OF EMERGENCY,GET ONE OF EBAY FOR 5.00 OR SOME ****

I stunt alone 95% of the time. I only do slow stuff so it isn't to risky. Make sure you don't stunt at a place where you could be alone for hours. All my spots someone drives by every 10min or so.
People are wierd though, I was doing a no hander and lost it. My bike was upside down on the side of the road. One person drove by why it was upside down the other why I was picking it up. Not one of them even slowed down. People in the country seem to be not as nosey as in the city.
Just use good judgement

Not a good idea, I couldn't imagin laying in a ditch somewhere with my legs broke or something. Responce time to a crash saves lives everyday, so just keep that in mind. Every hear a doctor say " If he would of got here 1 minute later he wouldn't of made it".........I have its pretty scary. It doesn't matter if you just started stunting, or if you are a starboy.........think smart.

Not a good idea to stunt by yourself period. If you are in Jacksonville there are a few teams there that you could go practice with. Geared-up and Urban Velocity to name a couple. Also go to there saturday night gathering at some cycle shop(don't remember the name) and meet fellow stunters, They can help you learn and also be there for you if something should go wrong.
