Re: X-Games Jake Brown 50' fall
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.

Re: X-Games Jake Brown 50' fall
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...

Re: X-Games Jake Brown 50' fall
I can't stop laughing at that the video. And the icing on the cake are those shots where you can really see his shoes fly off.
