That, my friends, is why I don't do drops. Yeah, I know most of what's in that video is big stuff, but just goes to show that one small issue or miscalculation can lead to something serious, even with a highly skilled rider who's done the stunt many times.

whoa there. i dont think anyone would laugh at a wreck like that in person. this was posted on youtube as entertainment. its nothing short of that. like any blooper reel you see on tv.
It was posted on youtube sure enough, but laughing at those folks is like laughing at car wrecks. There are videos on youtube of near drownings and other very serious situations. I agree it is human nature to "rubberneck", but posting that as "funny" is in some pretty poor taste. Just my opinion here. I've seen and been involved in some pretty heinous wrecks and injuries on bikes....not a damn thing funny about it..sorry if I seem too agro, but c'mon...those people are getting seriously Fed up in some of those crashes...what if it was your kid?

This vid isn't crazy. But the opening trick he pulls off is sick. Its a progression so wait for it...
