Check Out This Insane Clip

Watched that earlier today. Absolutely insane to walk away from something like that with minor injuries!
 
Even though I read the article first and knew he didn't get hurt, it still made me feel sick watching him bail felt in my gut he was gonna break his legs! :eek:
 
These guys where next nothing for protective gear and walk away. Must be very very fit or lucky I guess.
Very few of those guys haven't done serious long term damage to themselves, by breaking multiple bones...again, and again. Plus, they start doing this stuff at a very young age, before reason instills fear. I started riding my suspension bikes later, and armour up like a plastic ninja turtle. Those extreme dismounts hurt even with all your gear on. Most Downhillers are experts at epic crashes(the ability to walk away). The last time I had an epic failure on one of mine...Most everyone who saw it thought I'd need a body bag. I walked away, but totaled a $4k bicycle. I was very lucky.
