Gutted for the lad who attempted the rock roll at the end. Total lose lose situation. What kind of ‘friend’ films someone doing something that gnarly in portrait mode? Imagine if he’d have pulled it and found out it had all been for nothing.
I'd argue that because of how steep that was, that portrait mode is actually the best to use in that situation, the same cannot be said for some other clips
@thenotoriousmic: I know, I was just pointing out that this would be one of the few instances where portrait is superior to landscape (the only other time I can think of off the top of my head is recording a rocket launch)
Those are always the funniest. When you have to bail and instantly try to run as fast as you were riding. like your lower body is in a race with your upper body, waauuugggghhh!!!
There's something wonderful about the slow timing of this edit. So many of the crashes are apparent a second before they happen. The pile-up is like a Family Guy joke that never ends and the guy right after at 0:38 crashed a full 4 seconds before he actually fell off the bike. Brilliant.
yep. Mine was the first crash of the video. I uploaded in November last years. So don’t expect it quickly to turn up. But then again it has made the last 6 months of fails even better hopping that it would turn up.
@bholton: yep. The very first before the opening credits. If you look at the angle he should have just maid it if he didn’t bale. He was fine other than a lot scratches down his back. No stitches. He had Hope DH hoops that still roll straight but twisted his Boxxers beyond repair. You know it’s a big bale when you get a full swear word out mid air.
DAMN YOU Pinkbike....these Friday Fails got my YouTube algorithm tuned and I stumbled on Broken88Bike vids...yikes! NOT affiliated in any way just got my jaw dropped at the carnage:
The hits keep coming... The tree strike was.... striking!
Dude- Dang that was a nose bonk
Bike- I'm going to double tap this dude while he's down just for spite.
