cracks me up every time. god bless family guy.

That's nuts- taking a slam like that and getting up? All the way to the flat as well? Effing mental.

And only last month the Geordie dirt jumper Steven Murray bailed on a double back flip and basically crippled himself. I don't think ESPN et al. will be happy until someone kills themselves live on telly.

Plus the shoes- WTF?

Is it possible that the rubber on his shoes absorbed some of the impact and thus preventing serious injury?

[Kieran76]

"His SHOES popped off!"

Made me laugh.

Insanely disatrous fighter jet crashes, inc. aftermath = yes!
People falling off bikes = SICK!! (I can't bring myself to watch it)

My mate Ed fell off his bike last week and really guffed up his arm, I've never seen a scab so big before. ><

He lost a lot of the downward vector into rotational inertia and then his helmet took the brunt of it. Although the shoes clearly took on at least half of the energy when they went into orbit.

David, he was falling off a skateboard, not a bike. You can watch it.

Sounds cool - thanks for the heads-up Big C. I'll watch when I get in....

i can't have people missing out on such an amazing feat of sheer manliness on my watch. jake brown is officially the toughest dude in the world.

well maybe apart from josh bender:

thing is, bender does this stuff for fun... which makes him tough as balls but also stupid as ****. still though, for repeatedly flinging himself off a 55ft drop and crashing every single time? major respect, the guy is fearless

may as well add another bike related one, bmx flatland... it's basically dancing on a bike, but about 10million times more graveful/skilllful and downright cool... check this guy out, i have no clue at all how he manages to do all this, it just defies the laws of physics. of particular note is the little 'run' at 3:18 onwards, he's stood on the pegs of the front wheel, holding the back of the bike in the air and he flips the front wheel between his legs, and then again a few seconds later. this is godlike skill. godlike. my head almost can't take it.

also the tune; hilltop hoods - the nosebleed section, is particularly of note.

*edit: re-watching that for the 100th time i've just noticed, at about 2:50 he's got the bike upside down, holding onto the front pegs with his hands and is actually pedalling it upside down. that's it, i've had enough, my brain can't take any more of this, i'm going to bed.

That is quite amazing, I mean wow such a god like display of ballance puts him up there with rodney mullen, perhaps even better considiring he's on a bike and not a skateboard.


Cool music too.
