It's a pointless discussion to be honest as doing it on a brakeless BMX is very different to doing it on a road or fixedwheel bike.
Additionally, having snapped a chain on a fixed previously the chain wrapped around the rear cog and get lodged between the hub and chainstay.
Admittedly it did lock the rear wheel but by that point I'd already been thrown forwards onto the bars with the same force that I was applying to the pedals.
Max may think he knows how to deal with it. In reality it would be very different.
