 Anybody else like trying to guess the country/region just based on the foliage and geology, and then marking your answer by listening to the cameraman's response?

 ...I'm 9 days into my recovery for a separate shoulder from a bad night ride crash...seeing this made me realize I got off pretty easy
  • 3 0
 @SATN-XC: No worries, I came back to biking after 2 months and fully recovered after 3, good luck.
  • 6 0
 @lkubica: its all good, grade 2 separation...doc on Wednesday gave me the go ahead to ride trails within my pain tolerance but to avoid unnecessary crash risks (no jumps/technical trails)...some dirt is better than none
  • 1 0
 @SATN-XC: curious why you needed surgery for a grade 2. I have a grade 2 that isn’t really healing at pace but the dr is still keen to work with conservative treatment
  • 1 0
 @Poachninja: no surgery, was just told to take it easy
  • 13 0
 Holy crap PB, 6 of the first 7/8 were savage, did you save the nasty ones up for this particular week?

 The berm at 1.22 was behind a paywall.

 I wonder if Danny MacAskill is gonna see this and have to do it intentionally, and ride it out obviously! This dude was pretty close to pulling it off too, as long as his front wheel was up to the task!

 Homie at 2:19 with the flops on ... what a power move!

 That was a Superman seat grab but he didn’t have enough air time
  • 1 0
 That might be the best crash I've ever seen.
  • 6 0
 Probably a repeater, but anyone ever wonder how many of these end up in severe injuries? Some are goofy or just plain funny, but some of these crashes are bone crushers for sure...
  • 15 0
 The first video was of me, I came out of it with a fractured left orbital, broken nose, huge lacerations in my lip which needed surgery and a concussion
  • 7 1
 @ArthriticWrist: unlucky bro. How was the bike?

Superman to ball smasher was the best!

 0:12 - typical camera douchebag - running past injured rider to get his instagram shot. These kinds of morons are seen everywhere, car accidents, injuries etc...all they care about is stupid likes or whatever they are called. Sad.

 "Hey I can barely ride a tricycle but someone film me going for this 40ft gap!"
  • 5 2
 There are times that I ride with no knee pads but it’s only when it’s hot and on relatively sane trails. But no gloves? In winter? Just about every one of these crashes sees a pair of hands go out the keep the ground from hitting the face. I know some riders like the feel and contrail of bare hands but it’s still too risky and stupid imo.

 Holy crap these are getting hard to watch. So many destroyed shoulders/collarbones...

 This is all I see.

The guy at 0:27 I cringed watching.
