Video: Friday Fails #307

 Yeah man, I agree. Most of them made me cringe.

 i think that every week

 Yep, looked extra painful, some of them certainly damage inducing.

 A bevy of heavies, one might say

 Yeah. I was thinking the same thing. Usually, there are a few that make me laugh, but this week I was just stressed the whole time.

 The stump minefield was scary af

 @BenLow2019: I voted 17 but if it said "scariest" it's 6 hands down - made me break into a sweat but 17 for the pure violence of that slam does it for me.

 @swellhunter: I voted 21 - crazy high drop- camera perspective took my breath- and also took out his buddy in the rocks. Nasty.

 @swellhunter: did 17 break a crank/pedal? he folded un-naturally fast

 I think he was on a Stumpjumper, at least for a bit. Yikes

 @swellhunter: Yeah 17 for sure hit the ground the hardest. 6 was contemplating all his life choices before hitting the ground.

 @BenLow2019: That was a huge drop to flat, and what’s up with his buddy not moving out of the way when he could clearly see he was coming right at him?

 @BenLow2019: I'm always half expecting a bad crash there during the Leogang race, especially with the speed they're hitting that section (WC track is just to the left).

 I voted 6 because I didn't get past the second commercial.

 Yeah. Especially for that weaksauce "new defender".

 Advertisers seen to think that as we have an outdoors hobby, we want an expensive off-roader. Whereas in reality most of us spend so much on our actual hobby that we can't afford the fancy car (though don't tell our significant others that!). The most popular vehicle I see at the trail head is the work van or an ordinary car that's worth less than the bike on the roof. Or the ubiquitous VW T5 or 6, which is quickly being caught by Ford Transits with stripes

 @Dustfarter: might as well just buy a 3 series…

 Seriously. My shoulder hurts just watching that.

 Brutal hit on a big send and then his bike wacks him for good measure.

 It sure was! Simon "Simmo" broke his back off that slam. I think it was around 6 months in a body brace. All good now and back hitting that line and clearing it nicely

 Roadie fails are usually carnage tbf

 This just looks like any given BMX national.

 Getting crash footage at a BMX race is like shooting fish in a barrel.

 @JonnyTheWeasel: Same with velodrome fails its like watching nascar wrecks

 Yep frozen in his tracks, like watching a train coming at you from a mile away and still not moving by the time it gets there.

 17 isn't gonna remember where he is. That was a really hard whiplash.

 Yep. Bullshit fucking adds

 Surely not - they would have managed to jump them all.

 #1 was enough for the whole week, all the others were just bonus material.
