Depends on the fork, depends on the bike, depends on the rider.

Thank you.
Depends on the way he lands, depends on how fast he's going, depends on the wheels, depends on the tires, depends on 1000 other things.

^^^ the SuperMod is right.
what kind of fork are you talking? anything? I've had a few super-heavy-duty rigid forks that have taken everything I could throw at them. Headsets(lower cup)/tires/rims/hubs have failed before forks. usually.
and what exactly do you want a picture of?
