Yeah, he was going pretty fast.
This one had to hurt:
Forward momentum is a good thing:
Here’s another classic for the day.
This one is a bike crash video. I think I’ve seen this one on a few different tv shows that features stupid crap like this. I laugh each time I see it.
I don’t think this crash will wow anybody. The video is kinda lame overall. Not very much good humor involved.
The kid gets a good run at the ramp, I was expecting a much more spectacular crash. This reminds me of riding around on sweet Huffy bicycles back when I was a kid, trying to do stupid jumps, usually wiping out.
I’m only posting this because:
- The kid got good air
- The ramp looked rough, it’d take a little bit of bravery to try to jump that thing
I kinda wish he woulda pulled back a little more.
Or tried to do more of a trick.
Or leaned forward into the opening speed-run a little more.
Any of those would have lead to a more interesting crash, certainly.
The combination of dramatic music and the way that this guy is peddling his bicycle are what makes this worth a laugh.
I’ve watched it over and over again a few times, it’s definitely a classic bike wipe-out.
There were a lot of other spectators nearby as well. I wonder how many of them happened to look in this guys direction at the moment of wipe-out.
Time for a new bike crash category?
I might just have to put together a more concentrated list of some of the better bicycle wipe-outs I run across. This video will be in it.
