Do you like watching crashes????
 
We here's a little video of me crashing during a race. The guy in front of me actually had a video camera on the back of his helmet hoping to get a little action. Boy did he get what he came for. I'm ok. Still a little bruised up but nothings broken and i was actually able to finish the race although not in the top 10 as i was shooting for.
follow the link:

right click on "movie 2 mg" and save to your hd.
enjoy and tell me what you think

Ouch!

That's an interesting view looking back like that, rather than a forward view. Looks like you took a bit of a roll on the rocks. Hope you are OK.

Yeah, ouch. I’ve watched it in slow motion! :D

The Toninator 05-13-02 01:52 PM

Yea it hurt like hell i even cracked my helmet on the fall and lost consciousness for a bit. But I’m recovering, cant hit the trails hard but I’m back on the bike and should be fully recovered in a couple of weeks.

The one wth the guy without enough speed on the ramp was the best one. Laugh? I nearly shat.

Oh man that must have hurt!! Too bad he didn't make it. It would have been impressive. Helps to have a delivery truck to gain the speed. Never could do that on a BMX with one speed. Definately lives dangerously.:D

Yea, I downloaded the bmx jump one.....thats great:D I also downloaded the one where the guy in front of you misses a really easy turn, and then you sort of run him over....also great:D

That slo-mo one of Jonas endoing is my fave.:D

wabbit 05-13-02 09:55 PM

OMG, what a site. Love that guy with the ramp- I hope he's not dead or crippled, yikes. Loved the Jonah endoing over the rocks- yeah, well, it was a sheer drop, whaddya expect? Really entertaining, as long as no one ended up on the permanent disabled list, yikes.

poululla 05-14-02 03:35 AM

I know I should not laugh, but #%&!ø!! that ramp guy killed me!!

wabbit 05-14-02 11:02 AM

Yeah, I think it probably had the same effect on him.

Emergency! Get Randy Mantooth!

JaredMcDonley 05-14-02 02:15 PM

Ouch!!!

The best one is th BMX rider that just needed a little more speed!

Hey Ton, I don't care about you so much. How's the bike? j/k

I'd hate to be caught on film doing some of the stupid things I've done!

Heal quickly.

Holy Crap! In his frist Sport race, Wow!!!!

I finally had a good race 2 weeks before in waco, i got 8th. could have done better but that's what i got. (if you were there i was almost the last guy in to the woods but started with my hands in the air like i had just won)
I was shooting for a top 5 and had a realistic shot at it but biffed. I still got 20th which is almost the top 50%.

scubagirl 05-15-02 12:29 PM

i thought i heard them call you up in comfort

The Toninator 05-15-02 12:44 PM

comfort was pretty cool but not my best race i got 4th in the TT and was in the top five when i got LOST, of all freaking things, when i finally found my way back on the course i finished 19 or 20 or something. gosh dog i was mad. I also almost had a head on collision with a group of sport riders that took a wrong turn.

scubagirl 05-15-02 12:50 PM

my husband (2nd) 3rd & 4th all took the wrong turn too, and came in on the kids start line, He was mad too!

Good luck healing
