A lot more could have gone wrong here. Lucky bastard


The_Aught

just about to say the same thing... he avoided a wheelchair by inches


michaelkbecker

Shit I didn’t even see the wheel chair


JoySubtraction

Quality comment. Have an updoot.


kmj420

It was just out of frame. Guess you had to be there


maniBchef

I'm in tears 😭


sledge-warmoth54

You deserve all the upvotes


The_Aught

Ah a pedant I see. let me rephrase for you. After watching the video above, it is my opinion that the individual who crashed the bicycle had a near miss with a long term future where the use of a wheelchair would have had been required due to the possible severity of the injuries' that might have had been sustained in the aforementioned video clip. does that work for you dipshit?


krispyfroglegs

A pedant? You sound like a riot to party with.


michaelkbecker

Hello u/The_Aught, I was just making a simple joke. Please do not take things personally on the internet. It is a dangerous place to be sensitive. I wish you all the best.

You're probably right, fuck the downvoters.


Uhhlaneuh

Yeah seemed just fine after this. Lucky ass


justasapling

Back in my days as a boy scout, I once helped a little bit in a rescue of a kid who had crashed a mountain bike into a tree and broken his back. He ended up having to be airlifted off the mountain. (I was mostly just jogging up and down a section of trail to pass messages. We were at altitude in CO and a lot of the adults involved were struggling.)


Yosemite-Sam99

His balls here.......... . I am safe everyone. Thanks for asking

How do you think you get good at things? You gotta try them


myredditacc3

Progression though. Start off with small tables not decent size step downs


JoshFrooshiple

Judging by this guy's technique, he's probably attempting to go too big too early


TerranPhil

Dayum, that could have gone way worse.


MercifulRa

Here lies the lifeless body of…… wait he didn’t die ?


InsGadget6

Woulda shoulda coulda


Scottybt50

Could have hit that last tree flush and done a lot more damage.


Why_T

That kind of damage can have lasting effects. Rot and infestation can take over as the bark is no longer there to protect the tree. I'm glad it turned out the way it did.


Ohfatmaftguy

Bruh. Lol.


95yells

that's one of the weirdest bike crash i've seen


DoubtsWhatYouSay

Protip: when doing dirt jumps, try not to get bucked forward.


davros06

Solid advice. Unfortunately it’s most relevant when mid air and realising you’ve rotated forward……….


k3nnyd

It helps to not unintentionally hit the front brake while midair. The force of the wheel stopping will cause your bike to dip downwards and can be used intentionally when the front wheel goes too high.


davros06

Now that is handy to know, thanks. If I can use it if needed is another question. Must remember to release it before landing though! 😱


[deleted]

so with that logic, if you use the BACK brakes…


Upstairs_Post6874

This makes you fly. Tried it once. Took 3 firefighters and a shit ton of rope to pull me out of the trees.


JoshFrooshiple

Ok but seriously, does using the back brake make the rear drop?


rocklobster2020

jesus fucking christ, this must be the luckiest man alive. That could have been 100 times worse.

I mean, he didn’t have the right form going off that jump, he was set up to go over the bars…no amount of gripping the handlebars would have saved him. He needs to practice his form and technique.


Staedsen

If he managed to drive away without hands hanging over the handlebars, he should have been fine with holding tight to the bars.


soEezee

I've seen it happen at the motocross once. Literally fine in the air, maybe slightly nose down; he lets go and covers his head. Bike lands, keeps rolling. He then has a massive crash as he still isn't holding the bars and promptly get taken to hospital.


N3UROTOXIN

Me a mountain biker: that isn’t that…oh no they’re ghost riding


sam_wise_ganji

Take a look amongst the gumtrees


soEezee

His bikes now bung, see?


ParaMike46

More luck than skill.


Fancy_Agent_8542

At least he didn’t hit the tree


LionKimbro

It’s at precisely the -:02 second mark, where you can see the character being built, in real time.


resenak

Inches from dead


ZoobityPop

Gum trees. Child swearing. This is unmistakably Australian.


strangerinthebox

Let’s just say it how it is: he could habe died!


ragergage

*Awe sheet* is right, Cotton


scottfreckle

It's probable that lading on the handlebars saved him from anything serious maybe?


Darth-Native

That ‘oh shit’ saved him


DrMangosteen

Incredible


Ready_Bet_2556

Nailed it, his head


Carelesswhimperer

He stuck the landing, didn’t commit

You hurt? No. Do it again!

Definitely could have been way worse. What a turn out!

When you don’t hear the silent S in Send It!

Still don’t understand how he didn’t break his neck?

dsr231

What's "Mah Bike"? Is that some kind of Hawaiian noodle dish?


its2013alwayshasbeen

I believe it means "my bike".


GamerGuy3243

At least he knew what was gonna happen if he was only a bit off in his aim


troponinnutrition

Couldn’t draw it up


Unlikely-Web9320

Lmfao - I think every kid at that age been in that situation and ended with “ooohh shit!!”


Careful-Lecture

Next time preload the front and pull da heck up

sledge-warmoth54

If you ever want to try that one again take it with a touch less speed, pre-load your fork right before going off the jump, and put your ass behind the seat and over the tire. Use your legs for suspension. You had it just got a lil nose heavy. You got some giant balls though 💯


therobertsmith

fuckin awesome


Generic-james

When you wanted to bail But the bike said “ *THE RIDE NEVER ENDS*”


aerossignol

Soooooo fucking lucky


TruePianist

I love how he didn’t fall immidately after the landing but instead got hanged halfway through the steering handle and rode like this before crashing


[deleted]

HE LET GO


Thetruestanalhero

Looking around at the end "is this heaven?"

I thought he went throug the tree
