 Dear camera people. Please do not point your phones at the ground out of respect to the failing rider. The aftermath is an important part of all this.

 That’s Graveyard at Angel Fire. The lead in to that spot is even scarier.

 I don't know what's worse. A face full of rocks or a full body smash into a tree.

 The most valuable thing I learned in my motorcycle safety class was about target fixation: if you look at something, you *are* going to run into it.

 0:19 Considering how much worse that could've gone, seems more like it belongs on Sunday Saves. Do they not do that one any more?

 I'm starting to get afraid of trees - as in impacting them while riding. Damn

And WTF is the Rock Garden fellow @ 1:43 thinking? That would have been a miracle if he made it through.

 The guy at 2:12 is probably lucky he crashed where he did, it was only going to be worse from there.

 My favorite aural highlight was the Tony Soprano like "OOOO". I didn't know guidos went mountain biking!

 Not sure what was uglier at 1:30?
The crash, or the sight of a bullet head in the wild?

 @MollyJoyce: That is some serious sick gnar. I love it! And no doubt gear works when, not if you test it. Wish I was closer to that.
