X-Games Jake Brown 50' fall

[KenP]

Damn, did anyone watch this last night? Very scary.

If you didn't see it, you won't believe the ending.

I saw that, what a nasty fall. I think I got 10 oh sh@ts! in before he actually hit.

It's amazing he was able to get up and walk away from that one!

I missed it live, but CP made such a noise that I knew something was wrong.

Did you notice the flying shoes?!?!?!

[BKLYNH2]

Yeah they bounced 25' in the air after he hit. You gotta be crazy just to go down that ramp. The first jump was amazing but I think he went bigger than he expected and couldn't get control before the next one.

We were just talking about that before the fall and Ken went upstairs.

They are taking skating to such extremes that it is totally unsafe. I didn't see any netting between those ramp to ramp jumps and the momentum takes you so high.

They are taking everything to more and more extremes every year, the manual/trick bikes and the skaters have so little protection.

I let out 3 oh sh1ts and 2 oh gods.

Did you all see back-woods-country-boy Scott Murray go for the double back flip later in the show?

He didn't make it...
