 Last week was the opening was the opening. Pretty poetical.

 @HB208: I think he had in mind some notion of just hucking it. Then he realized, last second, there was no lip of any kind to launch off.
I wonder how deep that hole was.

 This usually happens when it's time for a group ride with all the homies. Everyone just disappears. Now I know!

 Somebody should have put the super mario pipe sound as he fell in

 @RayDolor: Well, if you go listen at any manhole or storm drain you can still hear him screaming on the way down.

 @number44: Yer right. He musta reached the Hollow Earth realm by now. Hope the foods' good.

 @flipoffthemonkeys: Well, I listened a bit to the latest Levu podcast on "conspiracy theories" and it put me in the mood. In reality, I only subscribe to the conspiracy theory that the ultra-wealthy .1% er's are siphoning the remaining commonwealth of the U.S. and decimating the working middle class, But that's not really a conspiracy theory, is it?

 For a split second i thought this would be the first friday fails, where a rider would get eaten by a wolf.
  • 28 0
 Looks like that wolf had already eaten a few fallen riders.

 just taking my pet dire wolf for a run around winterfell when i saw a white-walker. scared me so bad i wiped out...

 While we're at it, let's get some inspirational Saturday Saves! I want to see people rescue themselves from the brink of disaster.
  • 5 0
 I'd say the one at 0:20 was a save, and the one starting at 3:12 was a very nice unintentional nose bonk with ride out.

 "I'm sorry, I have to put you on hold, Friday Fails has posted."
  • 15 0
 Sorry but most of these riders have no business on the features they are failing on. Got to learn some features before showing up at the bike park..
  • 20 0
 But then what would I do on Friday morning....
  • 5 0
 Seems to be the case most weeks, mostly novice riders falling in entirely preventable ways on beginner/intermediate features.
  • 2 0
 @Gmang: Exactly and the sounds are as much fun to listen to as the fails.

Keep em coming pls.
  • 1 0
 Come on - while I admit that the half of fragment fall under your description, this particular release of Friday Fails is a very good one with a lot of diverse situations.

 @Tracefunction: seems to be the case

ha

 ooooooooh shit! Did you see the first guys arm hit the side of the hole. Nasty!!!!
  • 5 0
 Not until I just rewatched it after reading this comment. Now I can't unsee it!

 Just rewatched it ... Bad call !

 HFC !!!

 Idk if its the angle or what, but 2:35 might be the most anxiety-inducing POV I've ever seen.
  • 2 0
 so true!
  • 4 0
 Totally agree.... right from the start the terrain looks fairly disastrous. Then the rock drop enters the scene.
  • 2 0
 Barrel trail, St. George, UT
  • 1 0
 Right?! At first I was like 'oh please just be a simple wash out or something,' then that rock drop appears and....all hope exits the scene
  • 1 0
 Yeah, that was in a different league from the others. Looked like me trying to ride some Rampage shit.
  • 14 7
 Kaz: I can't believe they left that hole in the sidewalk.
Levy: What hole?
Kaz: That one there! Could you imagine Danny Mac doing some epic trials move over that?
Levy: Hold my donut. . .

 0:55 .. just a little bit short!
  • 2 0
 gotta love the commitment tho!
  • 10 0
 In retrospect, the see-saw to Manual was a little ambitious...

 44 seconds in-minor life goal achieved. I've made Friday Fails!!

 How's yer face? Looks like you scraped it across those rocks.
  • 4 0
 @MattyBoyR6: face never touched. Did crack a rib though.
  • 11 2
 I am finally famous. I made it to a pinkbike video. Sponsors. Hit me up. I wanna be rich.
  • 1 0
 which video is yours?
  • 2 0
 @IsaacO: 2:26. Too slow for that drop. It happens in the best families they say :-(
  • 5 0
 I'm a big fan of the nose heavy landing to lean back exit resulting in complete loss of control. Some great memories of that moment of terror when you're unsure if you can save it, should you jump off the bike or "please don't hit that tree"
  • 1 0
 Never go full save. GTFO
  • 6 0
 To me this feels like the best Friday Fails edit I've seen. Great mix,props to the editor.

 2:25. The laugh is worse than the crash.
  • 3 0
 he started before the landing hohohoho
  • 5 0
 Pennywise is going after bikes now, eh?
  • 4 0
 c'mon bro. don't blame your bail on the dog. that was all you. Also, i feel like i heard a few forks snap...
  • 1 0
 @groghunter On a few of these fails my money is on the snap sound being a clavicle.
  • 1 0
 ahh, but look closely at 3:08 and you will see, just for a moment, a very large and fluffy tail at the left edge of the screen. I submit to the court that this rider was indeed Wolf Blocked and had no choice but to crank his bars fully sideways to avoid a collision.
  • 5 0
 first scene sums up how i feel of 2020
  • 3 0
 At :38 & 1:14, is that the same poor kid getting "coached" into those crashes, or 2 different kids which now don't talk to Dad?
  • 3 0
 These Friday fails are slowly but surely growing my knowledge of multilingual swears, it can't be that much longer before "kurwa" becomes part of my regular vocabulary
  • 3 0
 Pls dont EVER teach yourself to preload so that we all can sit back and have a good laugh
  • 4 0
 One of the best Friday Fails!

 1:55 I don't know if it's an Ibis, but the bike completely refused to do the work
  • 1 0
 Of the 31 crashes here it felt like it should have been more than the 62% that smashed face first into the ground. Bias for the "ophf" factor for those crashes? Further study needed.
  • 1 1
 0:22 Good save man, that was impressive
0:33 Nothing like realizing midair that you've screwed up
0:58 This one had me rolling. You didn't even make it far enough to case the jump. And to have your body sail over you right behind you and bail is just insult to injury.
1:05 Did he really think that speed was going to be enough to get up that or did he realize upon contact with that cliff that he was in over his head and should try to bail, I'm guessing the latter.
1:37 He groaned BEFORE he made contact with the ground and let out what sounded like a sigh of relief when his crash stopped. Lol. Strange reaction.
1:53 That a new one, manual attempt out of a see-saw
2:07 Lol, crash because of GoPro setup, every GoPro user has this fate coming to them at some point or another
2:59 Where'd she go? Still on trail? Sailing through the bushes? Forget she had brakes? Following an imaginary friend?
3:10 How'd he even end up crossed up like that going off that small drop. The trail was going left, his handlebars went right and he fell right. What that a style points fail?

This was a great Friday Fails with a superb opener. He either went swimming with the fishies or he's covered in turds.

 1:37 reminds me of myself, pre-emptively groaning for a crash even when I end up riding it out
