 It's comforting to know there are still people out there trying to roll a 4 foot drop.

 Wow..... just a huge percentage of folks with zero bike handling skills this week.... regardless of being in the air or on the ground.
  • 17 0
 The all ended up on the ground anyway!

 The OTBs addition

 OMG! Dylan!

 Dylan's gone, one more round.
Dylan's gone.

 Never thought I’d say this, but I’d take the “you ok bro?” guy over the “Oh my god Dylan!” girl any day.

 Friday Fails - Ooo, oooh and aaah edition.

 CIA had Dylan pushing too many pencils?!

 "oh this one is in slow motion..."
Front tire slams off the drop.
  • 2 0
 Exactly what I was also thinking but no slow motion at all it seems.
  • 2 0
 Their brain is running in slow motion
  • 2 1
 like ok I get you've never done drops, but you know what gravity is, right?
  • 22 0
 Run your friend over edition
  • 2 0
 Fuck yea, totally worth it to get the go pro footage that no one will ever want to watch.
  • 4 0
 and then pretend you're the one who's hurt @1:47
  • 3 0
 If you didn't run over your riding buddy, is he even your riding buddy?
  • 17 0
 if you are going around a corner with your ass on the seat, inside pedal down and on a hardtail you have no business trying to jump. WTF is wrong with people?
  • 7 1
 to be fair, WE all know that. but some people learn the hard way. just hope the hard way isnt a serious injury but eye opening enough to make them re-evaluate their skill set.
  • 4 0
 I'd ask-is there any adult mentoring this kid, and WTF is wrong with them?

Likely answer-the adult is also a flamingo legging, dead sailoring Gumby.

 @cherbein03: "...WE all know that..."

I don't know. Do we? Every Friday is asking.

 OH MY GOD DYLAN
  • 14 1
 Jesus H none of these people had any business attempting to go airborne!
  • 9 0
 Pissing air was the perfect ending
  • 7 0
 The water landing was my favorite this week, though I do hope Dylan is OK...

 1) I've got a fever, and there's only one cure-more Kurwa!!
2) 1st crash dude got it right-if you didn't hit hard enough to cry, have a laugh.
3) The kid at 1:30 shouldn't be on anything more than a bike path-flamingo leg into a dead sailor shows zero skill, and more frustratingly zero mentorship from anyone, and yet it was recorded.
  • 2 0
 I did stop laughing when I saw the shape my arm was...
  • 3 0
 'Flamingo leg'. I'm glad you defined it elsewhere so I can LOL at it's perfection.
  • 6 0
 At 2:00 - throw your hands in the air and wave em like you just don't care
  • 2 0
 Yeah, was that the worst attempt at a bail we've seen?
  • 4 0
 1:54 is such a rookie mistake! If you try and park your bike by putting the FRONT tire into the rack (in this case, his buddy's butt hole) it's going to fall over!
  • 2 0
 The very first one was actually pretty impressive. If you watch closely as he's getting launched over the bars he somehow manages to get his right leg *underneath* the downtube and around the lefthand side of the front wheel and take a pretty decent step like he's just gonna walk out of it. But then of course there's that annoying bike frame between his legs Big Grin But major points for effort.
  • 2 0
 There's almost a 90 degree left turn in there too! I almost made it work but just got that little bit too snagged up and ended up coming down on my hand instead of rolling out Frown

 Thanks for the excellent play-by-play commentary. Nailed it!

 Apparently this is run over your riding buddy week

 0.22 might have some dirt rash…

 1:33 classic sitter downer, my fave at the bike park is the family with DH rentals wearing running shoes, full armor and sitting down on their seats blasting down trails not knowing they are about to be ejected.
  • 1 0
 Even worse than the sitter downer-the flamingo leg keeping the Gumby off balance.
  • 4 0
 0:53 - should be Sunday Saves if the kid survives the crash with his front torso overhanging over the handlebars Big Grin
  • 1 0
 Dude at 1:18 probably needs knee reconstruction after that.. speaking from experience here, I went otb and CB clips did not release until it was to late.. Literally almost killed me from torn artery & destroyed knee, faced with lower leg amputation, now home recovering for 2 years!!!!!
  • 1 0
 I feel like this round, people are trying to make it to Friday Fails on purpose. so many people riding things with their seat up, or completely committing to a nose dive on drops.
  • 2 0
 Often these fail clips include a chirping sound that I've never heard from my own bike - anybody know that that is? For example 1:14 and 2:10 in this week's video.
  • 2 0
 bottoming the tire out on the seat or frame most likely. Can happen with insufficient pressure OR a mega hit.
  • 1 0
 It really shouldn’t be possible, but… tyre hitting the under-side of the crown? Those chirps often coincide with instant otbs.
  • 2 0
 @azureblue: I think its the rear tire
  • 3 0
 I've always figured it was something like the stem and steerer getting yanked
  • 5 0
 A+ for the water landing
  • 3 0
 I wish the dog would have jumped in!
  • 2 0
 For all the ways that could've gone, I don't think that's a fail...
  • 1 0
 In this edition 2 or more of the following:
*step-through frames
*run 'm over when they're down
*Hit the ground with your front wheel at a distance 25% of the drop height
*Clueless people learning the hard way

 I would like to see Pinkbike ask Rob Warner to do a voiceover as if he's calling these fails live as they happen. "Stay on your bike, Dylan!"
  • 2 0
 Guy "hey guys should I try this wale tail feature!??!"
Friends "well you lack basic riding skills and haven't successfully jumped your bike so I'd say you are ready."

 3:00 in:
What's that Lassie? Timmy launched himself into the creek? Not again!

 1:34 that was that kids first time on a bike
  • 1 0
 Looked like it.

 The first minute is just folks trying to get hurt on stuff way above their pay grade, I swear.
  • 1 0
 That roller at :55 seconds is much worse and bigger than it seems. Just hit that last month in Quebec City, Canada. Wolverine trail at Sentiers!
  • 2 0
 2:31 literally the first thing they did was OTB. Didn't make it 1 foot down the trail with rolling wheels.
  • 1 0
 That one was my favourite.
  • 2 0
 It's me! I swear you can actually hear my arm breaking
  • 1 0
 1:30. Left turn, left pedal down? With that starting point, yeah, this will not end well.
  • 2 0
 Just remembering how many of those I've done at one point or another.
  • 1 0
 the dad at 1:30 will have some serious explaining to do to the mother. That looked like a nasty slam on the head.
  • 1 0
 Ya looked like the kid was in the fencing response on the ground. Definitely lost some braincells that day.
  • 1 0
 :47 - C'mon we need to see how that ended up, being an optimist perhaps the conclusion will end up on Sunday Saves?!?
  • 1 0
 FF#233 - I watched a bike video so I thought I'd borrow a bike and hit some drops edition
  • 1 0
 The lad taking a bath mid ride is the stand out. But OMG DYLAN comes a close second.
  • 1 0
 It's a huge fail when your buddy behind you doesn't know how to brake and runs you over while you're down!
  • 1 0
 There should be a prize of some pads for the best clip, because these people need some pads.... and a shirt.
  • 1 0
 You know, when the first thing to hit the ground after you front wheel is your face, then.... you know.

 Grammatical error at 0.15

 No skills = no knee pads? That how it works?

 Interesting looking (motor?)bike standing against the tree at 3:19.

 The 3:20 slo-mo / not slo-mo. Ouch. Gravity bats last.
