Video: Friday Fails #184

 and more importantly we need to see the full extent of the fail

 You're forgetting the most important reason to stay calm and keep filming. It makes for better Friday Fail videos.

 LOL, "Faller, Filmer, Father" would make a great headstone some day

 @OCSunDevil: In the shape of a youtube plaque, of course.

 The quicker you get there, the greater the opportunity for teabagging

 @OCSunDevil: PB t-shirt

 and....... NO LAUGHING

 Joking aside I was shocked and amazed that the cameraman caught Gee’s entire crash/ rag doll all the way down the mountain without so much as a faulted/quiver of the camera.

 The second save makes me wonder: Was it really worth it? Bye offspring!

 @hilfskonstruktion: nothing was saved in that one...lol... but there was certainly a save before that @1:16 and after @3:18

 I counted 4.

 a save for a nut!!!

 @panchocampbell: If he saved only one nut, was it half a save?
No partial credit when it comes to the nuts.

 That "save" at 1:25 looks like it might have cost that fella a nut sack. Sounds like a raw deal to me....

 @RayDolor: His bike said: NO KIDS FOR YOU!

 @RayDolor: I've made that "save" before. Everything was fine, but the first thing I did was ensure my junk was still attached.

 @dan23dan23: more money for more bikes

 ...that was not good

 His helmet is hardly on his head just prior to impact. Folks, adjust your helmet retention properly, or risk being spoon-fed the rest of your life.

 @JVance: For that kind of crash (where you hit the side of your helmet/head) only a full-face would actually help. My worst crash was a similar sort of impact and my helmet was adjusted properly. Non-full face helmets just don't offer enough side protection.

 @ohbmxer: nah, in this situation, I think the open face is just fine if sized correctly and adjusted properly. Took a similar fall 2 years ago where the bike shot out from under me and threw me violently sideways into the ground (was on a limestone rockface ...not pavement). The protection just above my ear took the impact of the ground (in addition to my shoulder). Received a concussion and sprained shoulder but the helmet prevented any part of my head/face from making contact and I credit it for potentially saving my life. [was riding solo and 5 miles from any assistance]

 Hahahahahaha

 at least bikes aren't using linear pull brakes anymore, could have been worse

 We got a bleeder!

 holy steaming nut sack dude

 Or to quote from another movie: "Ow! My balls!"

 @VtVolk: fwank and beans!

 Thanks, happy to tick all the boxes. At 42 though, I'm not sure how long my body can cope with all that the audience wants.

 @pelkkaa-alamakea: lol...at least you found your way between the trees.
Any insight into the crash? looks like a little foot slip...or did the rear tire snag the rock on the landing?

 @pelkkaa-alamakea: 42??? You time lots of got. I'm 50's in my, gave audience they want what, and fine I am totally.

 @rrolly: Is it intentional that I read this in Yoda's voice? Just realized that this could explain a lot. An old-ass Jedi has probably been bounced a few times...

 @SATN-XC: Yeah, you can't really see it from the clip but you are supposed to turn rider's right along the shark fin. I didn't, I went straight, so at the end of the shark fin I can already see I will jump towards the forest rather than the trail. And of course, panic breaking on the landing didn't help, as that fully compresses my fork and ejects me. Fortunately nicely between the trees.

 Gold!

 Onlyfans is getting away from adult content BTW. Need to keep the banks happy. FYI

 The kid at 3:36 just says “wow” after getting thrown down the roots. Wish I could do that

 @JaakanMullet: kid gets up like a boss...bravo. ...to be young again and take that kind of punishment like no big deal

 @JaakanMullet: then goes to look for his shoes

 i see this on the trail every ride no one puts enough air in the front any more

 @madmon: Looks like he was on the brakes

 Another reason I'm proudly in the pro-chamois club.

 @insertfunusername: I'm reconsidering my belief of not needing them for bike park days

 Further evidence, rubber on scrotum may also see a significant performance drop off.

 @commental: that's what @Ensminger said

 had to watch it a few times...yup, definitely a phone. Probably mounted on the bars of the guy who crashed.

 Was :48 testing or poaching or? That landing looks half done and the ramp looks brand new.

 Yah I'm sure I've missed a few but this one made me cringe several times more than I can ever remember.

 Legal jump line here in Oregon @ sandy ridge trail system called TnT

 @pdxjeremy: IS that just how the landing is? I mean you not supposed to land short, I get it, but that seems built to injure.

 you'll have to be more specific....clip timing?

 @SATN-XC:
They saved the best for last. Lol

 Do you think this single snapshot is a good representation of their skills? Have you never crashed or went OTB on a jump? I think... these things happen for various reasons, body position, rebound settings, timing, trail conditions, unfamiliarity with the jump, etc. If you push your limits, your bikes limits, the trails limits... you are going to crash.

 Me too! I had some great crash footage from todays ride but i have no idea how to submit them for friday fails

 @skill7: I sent an pm to pinkbike originals to ask them how. Hope they answer back. Will let you know.
