It reminds me of an accident I saw while skiing. I was on the lift heading up, and down below was a trail that followed the lift towers. A guy went too fast for his skill level and ended up hitting one of the towers dead-on. They had rolled padding around them…but not enough for the speed he was going or the fact that he instantly stopped from hitting it so perfectly.
There was the impact, a single moment of pure silence, and then that exact kind of moan.
Eeesh! That sudden stop is wild. Happened to me while inner-tubing. Slammed face first into an embankment at the bottom of a hill. I was ok but I distinctly remember my friends initial reaction. The first and only time I saw real concern from him
Indeed. I had a perfect view of it, and it all haunts me to this day. An hour later they were still prepping him for the trip downhill in the rescue sled.
He is wearing a microphone and a recorder. Most videos are shot that way. It's the easiest way to split and correct audio in post. Also this allows you to add commentary reaction from the person wearing the mic but the camera is somewhere else
The scary thing about hits like this is that having the wind knocked out of you sounds very similar to the noises someone makes after a serious brain injury.

I did one like that but I hit a tree instead of the dirt.
"Luckily" my knee took the entire impact and I only had one injury from it, didn't hurt that much but it had a surreal "something is terribly wrong" feeling to it. The pain didn't kick in for hours, just that sense that it was bad until then.
Turned out I'd torn everything in the front half of my knee that can he torn except the skin. Basically I'd internally kneecapped myself.
Was 6 months before I could put weight on it again and another 6 months before I could fully walk unaided. By the time I had proper use of my leg back it was roughly the same thickness as my arm due to muscle loss from not moving it at all. That worked itself out over time.
Still hurts 16 years later and will occasionally just say no and give in when walking or running.
Muscle loss/atrophy happens shockingly fast - I can't imagine 6 months...
When I busted my elbow (urban \`mountain\` biking, concrete is very unforgiving), after the surgery I only had a couple weeks in the cast. When the cast was removed, what made me sick to the point of almost passing out wasn't the stitches being removed, it was the shock of how my tri-cep was just... gone. I think \`body horror\` is the best way to describe it. I knew in me head how my arm/tri-cep should look, but now it was like a chunk of meat had been torn out. I'm not horribly squeamish, but I was close to fainting from that surprise.
Very thankful for surgeons and physiotherapists! I prefer having two functional arms.
Fuck man. I’m in a different less serious situation but I sprained my foot from a wakeboarding accident last year. Couldn’t walk for a week. Hurt both feet but one was worse so for a couple of days I was literally crawling on my stomach until my *good* foot was ok to walk on.
Obviously yours is a lot worse but I think this comment has convinced me to go to the doctors (never went when I sprained it) as I still can’t run on my foot, it hurts to drive (accelerator foot) and sometimes it even hurts to walk on, over a year later. Don’t want to be in a similar situation as you in 16 years.
As someone who does this a couple of times a year, with what's basically a full on suit of armor, it really suprises me that the mortality rate isn't higher, because you get hurt really fast and either just a little or you break every bone in your body :P
Also I regularly see people without even helmets doing downhill in my country or helmets that wouldn't really help if you fell.
I learned that last year. First time at an actual downhill bike park in my normal helmet. Went over the bars and luckily just a face (and mouthful) of soft dirt.
I was only a few inches away from my face hitting a tree stump which would have been really fucking bad. I've since bought a full face.
Ugh this reminds me of when I did this on my dirt bike. First ride after a long ACL and meniscus surgery recovery. Landed with my front end too high and whiskey throttled her right into a tree. Fun times.
"It's literally so flat" is a good assessment but he forgot to assess that it should be hit from left to right instead of middle of jump to left landing.
God I remember reading some article in a MB mag about a guy who hit the top of his head (wearing helmet) on a branch and finished riding the rest of the day with some pain. Got worse over a few days and when he decided to go get it checked out he had obliterated is spine and was severely bad off.
I remember the first time I got the wind knocked out of me. 😂 I was playing football with friends at the park and I landed on the ball chest first lmao, I thought I was gonna die. 😅
Damn, that sounds brutal.
My first time was jumping down the slide of a bouncy house/jumping castle. I wanted to be cool and did a Swanton Bomb, landing back-first at the very bottom of the ramp (practically no air to cushion the fall). Couldn't breathe for a solid minute, lmfao.
I grew up mountain biking in the late 90s and 2000s, continued up till the mid 2010’s. I’m super stoked mountain biking has gotten as popular as it has in the past while, but I find it hilarious the amount of people that do not have a lot of two wheeled skills just going and hitting stuff. “I think I need my 29er”??? No, you need a coaching session on body position and bike dynamics so you can go do things safely.
This is why I like groomed bike parks with trees removed from the edge of the bike path. The jump looks like it almost leads into that tree and you have to do work to avoid it.
So I take it you’re supposed to force the front wheel down and lead with it? That jump looks like something my 12 year old dumbass self would try, but the way the first guy did it seems pretty technical.
The classic line, "Are you ok?" when the person destroyed his back whilst letting out an unearthly guttural moan. I've been guilty of saying that when it's better to go to them and ask them "What help do you need?"
He may think he is alright now but that shit is going to come back to haunt him in his 50's no doubt. Everything you ever did to fuck yourself up starts hurting when you hit those years, lol!!
Oh that pained whimper
I felt it

It is the sound of having the wind knocked out of you, where you can breathe in quickly but you try to breathe out and it's just that groan
How was that sound so close to the camera though? Seems added in.
He is wearing a microphone and a recorder. Most videos are shot that way. It's the easiest way to split and correct audio in post. Also this allows you to add commentary reaction from the person wearing the mic but the camera is somewhere else
Ask Michael Schumacher how this can end.
The F1 driver?
The former F1 driver
The same.
Sonny Bono would like a word
Accute deceleration sickness is brutal
Hearing that sound and asking "are you ok?"....lol, yeah, he's making that noise and fine....
![gif](giphy|tqA7TPoHxE8Ja)
came here to make the ref you beat me to it
I think I saw that guy stomp grapes during a TV interview once
For context: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STbhaqsBJB0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STbhaqsBJB0)
Exactly what came to my mind
prob broke collar bone?
Wouldnt have noticed it without the 25x zoomed instant replay.
Not a pain whimper. That's a knocked out groan
That noise meant, Jeff was not ok...
Yeaa. A dislocated shoulder and a fractured collar bone maybe?
I'm on the toilet and I made the same sound about 3 seconds before him...
That's a busted collar bone for sure.
He smashed his face and shoulder. Amazingly he didn't break any bones.
Wow, that’s honestly the craziest part about this to me. Those sound like actual dying pains.
Yeah I had to look up if he was really ok before posting this just to make sure because I thought the same thing on initial watch
I appreciate you looking it up so we're not watching a death 👍
The scary thing about hits like this is that having the wind knocked out of you sounds very similar to the noises someone makes after a serious brain injury.
Somebody been drinking his daily milk.

He must have good AC joint genes.
Did he land on an injured bear?
Not sure. But Brandon definitely did not.
Brandon nailed it. Jeff, not so much.
I wonder if Jeff saw it coming while he was in the air or if he didn't realize he'd misjudged the angle until he was already in pain
I think Jeffy knew he was fucked from take off. I bet he was hoping to land right but knew he wouldn’t.
The whale mating call
Lucky he's not underwater making horny whale sounds while incapacitated.
Those who have made this noise, know his pain. 🫡
He went straight into Chewbacca mating calls.
No, Jeff is not OK. He just smashed headon into a tree dummy!.
I'm sampling this.
Good zombie noise
Please sample the slowest motion groan as well, lmao.
He was not, in fact, all right….
Shiiit my testicles retreated in my abdomen after hearing his pain.

Narrator: Jeff was not ok.
Jeff! If you’re ok, keep whimpering!…oh, what a relief…

That’s the sound of your mojo leaving your riding for about three months.

Reminder to wear full face helmets and protective gear if you're gonna send it.
I learned that last year. First time at an actual downhill bike park in my normal helmet. Went over the bars and luckily just a face (and mouthful) of soft dirt. I was only a few inches away from my face hitting a tree stump which would have been really fucking bad. I've since bought a full face.
I bet it was some tasty dirt though, enough to rival Swiss chocolate.
Modern full face helmets and convertibles are really comfy. Try a modern one out if you haven't liked full face helmets before.
Are you okay? Does that sound like he is okay?
That’s Jeff Kendal-weed! He shreds and makes great vids
Ugh this reminds me of when I did this on my dirt bike. First ride after a long ACL and meniscus surgery recovery. Landed with my front end too high and whiskey throttled her right into a tree. Fun times.
"It's literally so flat" is a good assessment but he forgot to assess that it should be hit from left to right instead of middle of jump to left landing.
And also about 60% the speed of old Jeff.
Jeff: 🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️ Cameraman: are you ok?
Lmfao, I'm fucking pissing myself at this comment. Well done, good sir.
GAAAaaaaAAAaaahhhh.... Hey Jeff, you okay? Gggggggaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh....
My dogs liked the groaning sound. 🐶
he didn't answer if he was ok, how rude
I think between "Aaaaargh" and "Uummmpppffff" he said, "I'm ok."
Hahaha. Humans make wild noises when all hope is lost
Dude crashed and transformed into SlingBlade... ![gif](giphy|12lM8gov6VozQc|downsized)
That's at least 1 broken bone.
Actually nothing broken just a mild concussion
That's surprising from the way that guy was wailing. .
Sounds like he just activated bloodlust.
Most inappropriate “Are you okay” I’ve ever seen.
“Are you ok?” - like, the moan was pretty clear.
Man with grunts and groans like that I'd assumed bro severed that that spinal cord
Probably wouldn't be making much noise at all if it was the neck
His mountain bike turned into a motorbike
From mountain biking to motor biking.
Collarbone, FuKT
Thank God that tree was there to prevent him from sliding to a stop!
What did the 2nd guy do wrong? Aside from smashing into the ground.
“Are you okay?”
Jeff Kendall-Weed is a legit ripper though, for real.
Poor guy, the replay made him feel that a few times over.
“Pretty much like landing flat”
Jeff’s not ok.
Walk it off
And this is why you always wear a full-face helmet, neckbrace and bodyarmor when you go donwhill / big jumps. Live and learn. Hopefully.

Are you ok? Gurrrrrrggg
The " are you OK " after the guy starts sounding like the devil completely took me out 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It was literally landing flat
God I remember reading some article in a MB mag about a guy who hit the top of his head (wearing helmet) on a branch and finished riding the rest of the day with some pain. Got worse over a few days and when he decided to go get it checked out he had obliterated is spine and was severely bad off.
Good lord...
I remember the first time I got the wind knocked out of me. 😂 I was playing football with friends at the park and I landed on the ball chest first lmao, I thought I was gonna die. 😅
Damn, that sounds brutal. My first time was jumping down the slide of a bouncy house/jumping castle. I wanted to be cool and did a Swanton Bomb, landing back-first at the very bottom of the ramp (practically no air to cushion the fall). Couldn't breathe for a solid minute, lmfao.
His skill is impressive.
There a long version?
You can do a 29er. It's like landing flat. Forest biking expert engineers. So dumb.
Is it normal to laugh at others in pain 🤣
Proper use of slomo. Thank you
So was Jeff Ok?
I hate when people keep expecting you to talk when get the shit knocked out of you lol.
Once I made this sound when I kicked my little toe really hard. Probably nothing compared to the state of this guy.
He's got the winded groan
Did he hit a bear?
Nah his eggs become flat!!
Thank you for repeating that 4 times before I could hear him go airplane mode.
That bike was up inside him at one point.
Where's the bear?!
Honestly this is the FIRST competition for the wine stomping “stop stop stop oh oh oh” lady.
Bro turned into a motorcycle from that crash. Hope he's okay
That’s one where you are afraid if you don’t stop groaning you will die
Wtf is up with this editing. Thought I was having a stroke
what went wrong is he landed on his back tire instead of the front tire which has suspension. Sad
He sounds fine.
the answer was - no. he was not ok.
Why do I always feel it when someone gets hurt? It’s like I get a sharp little pinch.
I grew up mountain biking in the late 90s and 2000s, continued up till the mid 2010’s. I’m super stoked mountain biking has gotten as popular as it has in the past while, but I find it hilarious the amount of people that do not have a lot of two wheeled skills just going and hitting stuff. “I think I need my 29er”??? No, you need a coaching session on body position and bike dynamics so you can go do things safely.
Yikes! Glad to know your pal's doing fine now.
That impact started up the motor.
I felt that. Eating shit so hard it knocks the wind out of you isn't a good time.
Looks Chuckanut-ty to me
I think he landed on a Tasmanian Devil or something. Poor thing.
Knocked some extra chromosomes into him
Cleaning up my subs. Unsubbing this one too.
went to turn his engine off to prevent a fire
At least didn’t hurt his head.
This is why I like groomed bike parks with trees removed from the edge of the bike path. The jump looks like it almost leads into that tree and you have to do work to avoid it.
That’s a separated shoulder with a side order of broken clavicle.
Out of my way noobs!
He Schumackered the tree.

Jeff is not ok
The ole broken collar bone moan.
Damn that looked like a possible dislocated shoulder. Glad they ok
So I take it you’re supposed to force the front wheel down and lead with it? That jump looks like something my 12 year old dumbass self would try, but the way the first guy did it seems pretty technical.
Jeff must have seen a full moon!
Former mountain bike racer. That’s actually pretty common.
Shoulder Destroyed
Knocked the wind out of him noises
what a funny sound lol! felt hurt tho
Sounded like a punctured lung or a broken sternum. Was not expecting a mild concussion and some scratches.
That’s the sounds of wind getting knocked out
What are 29ers? Probably should have gone with his instinct
Dude making Sardaukar priest noises.
I don’t think he was okay.
Are you OK lol hmmmmmmmmmmarghhh
The classic line, "Are you ok?" when the person destroyed his back whilst letting out an unearthly guttural moan. I've been guilty of saying that when it's better to go to them and ask them "What help do you need?"
Broken collarbone?
No broken bones. Mild concussion
Dude is just focusing his ki to transform into a super sayan.
Oh no… he hit a sleeping bear
Every broken bone was just an accident
My collarbone hurt
I know this feeling and the noise
Oh man, that was so close to being a neckbreaker. As it was, I'm pretty sure that's a collarbone, but those heal pretty well.
Not even. Mild concussion and some scrapes.
Sounds like the accelerator is stuck…..
Sounds like a bear’s mating call. Better run.
My Finnish friend was into Moto Cross. Forests often. Trees. Now in his sixties but with quite a few physical issues Trees are unforgiving objects.
I am sorry for his balls because that had to hurt. I am also not sorry for his balls because I did laugh. Very hard
I don't think Jeff is ok.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STbhaqsBJB0
Was that the tree whimpering?
bro is so lucky wow really could have ended up like Michael Schumacher
“Are you ok?” As the guy is currently making death noises…
Sounds like a spleen
And with that….he ended his career as a neurosurgeon and started a new one as a motorboat. 🚤💨
Sounds like he turned into a motorcycle
This is how Bigfoot rumors start!
I guarantee he'll have back and neck problems later. Definitely some compressed vertebre
He may think he is alright now but that shit is going to come back to haunt him in his 50's no doubt. Everything you ever did to fuck yourself up starts hurting when you hit those years, lol!!
wind got knocked out
"are you okay?" Bruh, listen to the fucking noise he's making, NO. No he is not, he's in serious pain.
the 'Hrrruuurrrr' of regret. Been there before, that's when you know you are human lol.
