Sad to see this guy crashing but at least the neck is OK. Here is the video and hoping him a quick recovery.

Broken right humerus. Same injury I had almost two years ago and I am STILL fubar. Of course, according to some other guy at the track that broke the same bone one time, it only takes like 4 weeks to be back at full race speed and I am just a huge pussy.

I know Will ain't a pussy like me so he should be back for round 1 of the nationals. Trust me, a guy at the track said so.

In all seriousness, I hope he is okay. They said he was going to have his neck x-rayed too. NOT GOOD. Best wishes and prayers for you Hahntenator.

That was the worst I've seen a rider rag doll all year! Super gnarly! Sorry to see Wilbur hurt, but damn...it could have been so much worse!

Hope for negative results in neck exam & speedy recovery for him.

Yeah I have to say ii was not expecting much from will this season but he really has been killing it even though the results aren't there. He belongs in the top five and it sucked to see him crash. He seems like a nice guy and a great interview and I hope for a quick recovery for him

Good to see the 6D helmet worked well to minimize
the head first landing trauma.

Hopefully he is alright, that was tough to watch. It looked like he may have already been knocked out when he went rag dolling over the next jump from the first hit he took, and if so that just might have saved him a bit from other injuries. Maybe since he was limp, his body was able to take the impact a little bit better, just a theory. Either way, best of luck to him on the recovery, I talked to him at the Oakland round and he is an awesome dude!

Poor guy looked like he slammed his head straight into that first jump. I hope he is ok.

I was so relieved & thankful to see Wil sitting up and conscious. Will is such a great guy...I almost had to turn the TV off for the night after seeing that. It really shook me up.

Really scary, it could have been much worse. I wish him a speedy recovery, let us hope he can be back for the Nationals.

That's not very humerus at all. Heal up Will!

Well I need to thank everyone for your prayers for Wil and ask you to keep them coming. Also thanks to those of you who came to the hospital tonight. Wil broke his humorous his collar bone possibly his scapula and dislocated his shoulder. We thought he would be getting out tonight but they found a fracture at the base of his scull that they want to keep an eye on. We'll know more in the morning.
