My father introduced me to the saying that "one person's comedy is another person's tragedy" and that saying seems pretty appropriate for these types of clips.

Having flashbacks to when I was a 16 year old training slalom :eek: Totally got into the backseat, couldn't get my blocking hand far enough across my body :eek: Not a pretty memory. Can't imagine what taking one to jimmy and the twins from a PANELED gate at Super G speed based on what a single slalom pole at atmost 15mph felt like :eek:

Freakin' hilarious - the agonizing scream immediately afterward is the best part...you really need a pair to truly appreciate that situation, sorry ladies.

Do these guys wear any protection? Talk about literally busting a nut...:oops:

Ouch! Funny indeed. It looked like he couldn't decide whether he wanted to protect himself or not...

One thing I noticed......
He didn't even consider finishing the race.

Trek, I think you'd be hard pressed to find a male here on AZ that after viewing that clip could blame him. ;)

Let alone the pure and simple fact that he missed the gate, and at Super G speeds, you miss a gate, why even bother trying to hike to successfully negotiate the gate so that you can end up in dead last and still get the exact same number of world cup points that you get for a DNF - zero I'm guessing though that in the next race, "the boys" looked a bit more impressive than usual in the good 'ol downhill suit ;) :rolleyes: :lol: ;)
