Claim: Video of 20,000 bikers performing a motorbike parade for a 6-years-old boy diagnosed with cancer in Germany.
Fact-check: Motorbike parade video from Brazil is shared as visuals of 20,000 bikers riding for a German boy diagnosed with Cancer - FACTLY
Verdict: the video shared in the post shows video clips from two different motorbike parades. the first portion of the video shows an old motorbike parade organized by brazil president jair bolsonaro and his supporters in san paulo, brazil. jair bolsonaro held this protest against the state governors and mayors in brazil for imposing lockdowns to control the covid-19 pandemic in the country. in july 2021, around 15,000 bikers have paraded through east frisian town in germany to cheer a 6-years-old boy diagnosed with cancer. the last portion of the video shows the boy cheering at the motorcyclists who rallied in thousands for him. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading.
