 Bikes are so much more capable these days... The humans on board, not so much.

 I love the first clip followed by the Friday Fails intro of the exact same crash.

 Never have I seen a crash that matched the intro so well.

 @thustlewhumber: check the intro crash on FF #84 ... it is the template for the intro Smile

 @bikounet: grab a lil front brake in the air?
  • 2 0
 @lognar: nah, essentially I got squished on my bike by the compression before the jump, from there everything got wrong (speed, position on the bike...)
  • 2 0
 @bikounet: Ah. Looked like a front flip try. Hope you're fine.

 Why is that guy playing Frogger on a mountain bike trail?

 I'll be fine walking across this landing as long as I just duck a bit and look in the wrong direction
  • 6 0
 @Woody25: Bike to the boat race, straight out of nowhere!

Well, not exactly nowhere, it came from exactly where you'd it expect it to.

He did not see it coming is my point.

The dude riding the drop must have cacked a brick when he saw someone on his landing. Nowt he could do about it anyway.

 Maybe I'm reading to much into his body language, but it sorta looks like he just took a hard crash himself and just got up a bit dazed.

 Where did that guy come from!

 @kcy4130: Or he had been for a mid trail sleep in the bushes perhaps

 Mama told me when I was young
"Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say
If you cross a trail below a big drop your gonna get you head knocked
some sunny day"

 Obscure but I laughed. A Simple Man indeed.

Alternatively for a few other clips...."Oak tree you're in my way"

 I fell in a lake once riding a narrow trail just off the edge. Not filmed, so I'll never be FFF (Friday Fails Famous)

 his buddy laughs and keeps rollin. Lol

 That was the hero line.

 He actually rode right into the river. He was still on the bike and up right when he hit the water. That was awesome.

 Yikes, 2:12 made me physically recoil from my screen.
  • 16 0
 Excellent friday fails this week. Guy walking onto the trail under the drop. I assume the warning sign they subsequently put up is just a screengrab from this clip. Guy that ended up in the river... voluntarily it seemed. Failed spectacularly and hilariously but no-one got hurt - the ideal friday fail perhaps. Some great audio this week too. Some very interesting noises coming from the failees. Also love how the first clip is recreated exactly in animation from by the intro immediately after it.

 All those fancy kits didn't help any of those riders. T-shirts and Jorts Rule!

 Guy at 3:19 is wearing t-shirt and running pants.

 @Nlogax: the running pants are the problem here.

 @danielstutt: He needed them to jog right off that trail.
  • 1 0
 @Nlogax: think he's going to need something to sort that nettle rash out. Not sure if you get them in us, Google if not
  • 1 0
 @danielstutt: yes there are nettles. A wide assortment of other spiky plants as well. Bears and deer run across the trails also. Poison oak and ivy too.
  • 2 0
 @DhDWills: don't forget rattlesnakes
  • 1 0
 @Mountainmanjh: ya and I guess other parts of the us have that other poisonous snake, the colorful striped one. And we forgot ticks with Lyme disease and other lifelong diseases and hordes of mosquitoes which may or may not carry debilitating viruses!

I ran over a rattler once, I saw him and it was too late to try and brake so I popped straight over him. I was guiding a group of city slickers too. I made them stop and he slithered away.

 I thought the age of the gopro pointed straight at the ground was over

 Judging by the flashy shorts at the end of the clip, the GoPro is only part of his kit.

 dear lord why was that guy sitting down!
  • 6 0
 Wonder if the guy at :41 ever found his water bottle that launched into stratosphere.
I'm terrified for the riders at 1:30 - pretty glad I couldn't see either of the 2nd and 3rd riders' landings. They were freaking going for it!
And yes... 2:12 must have ended in a hospital trip. Total nightmare.

 Was that the landing in the video? because they all went waaaaaaay past it.

 -@ 2:27 the gentleman had no business attending that , there are times you know that person is in trouble before they even go through the section.

 i'd love to see a 'making of friday fails' where whoever is doing the editing is being filmed and making commentary on all the videos to sort through and add.

 @2:15 What is the the magnetic force @ ski resorts that hypnotically lures skiers or riders to linger in the landing zone of a jump?

 People getting better, they now realize mid air that they will fail and bail.

 ...guy buys Fuel EX8. Guy starts to get the hang of this MTB thing. Guy goes for lippy jump that buddy says he'll be fine, "trust me bro, just match my speed."...

 Its always hilarious when people fall in rivers/steams, but then you can help but feel bad because you know the rest of their ride was just so soggy.
  • 1 0
 Yeah, but not as bad as a limp body afterwards or someone clutching their shoulder. Those people don’t even get to ride out.

 Insert Leo meme from once upon a time in hollywood when you spot a sketchy jump from your local trails that made it to friday fails lol

 @blowmyfuse: types of bone fracture, illustrated in moving images. First half or so of this week's reel looks like skilled riders showing off for the camera, and paying for it

 1:30 is why even if I could get big air like that, I have no interest in riding that closely behind someone.

 looks like they did a live action version of the friday fails intro sequence

 The intro dead sailor was the true-life representation of the "Friday Fails" animation. Props for accuracy!

 It wasn’t the idea when dropping in but i’ll take it, thanks!

 @bikounet: Are you okay though? Hope you didn't break anything or had to stay off the bike long.

 Maybe a steeper head angle would stop all those front wheels from flopping about and giving way

 Okay right off the bat, I'm confused. What the F was up with the very first guy?!! WHAT?????
