Goodness

He was doing fine, but his fatness just decided to bail. You can see him get a little off from straight, and try highly unsuccessfully to get off.

I think the problem was that his handlebars were slightly turned to the left, and he didn't land straight..

My favorite part is the camera guy's commentary...very refreshing.

It's a pet peeve of mine when people start yelling "are you okay? are you okay?" before I even have an opportunity to figure it out for myself.
