what fucking idiot picks a bike up with a stuck throttle, doesn't pull the clutch in, and doesn't expect that shit to happen

Shit happens, yo!

At least Moore was able to walk off. We should be thankful for that.

No, tonight's deal was way worse. You have a rider who's already down, you don't know the extent of the injuries, and you cream him with his own bike.

That was a low point for sure.

I thought it was interesting how they only showed it one time live; I believe.

For sure - I bet he's hurting more from having his back dominated by his own bike than he was from the actual crash. I'm still in disbelief that someone would be so cripplingly stupid...

Simply hitting the kill button would have done the trick!

That's the biggest two bit fuck up I've ever seen in a professional sport. Who the hell has a dud on the floor that knows fuckall about bikes pick one up after a crash? I'm speechless. What a joke.

I like when pastrana said " i know how that feels" talking about the crash and then said " i have no idea how that felt " talking about getting hit by a WFO bike.

You'd think they'd brief guys about the concept of a kill switch if they are going to be first on the scene.

At least he bulldogged it to the ground instead of standing it up and letting go! That would have been really insane.

Then the oaf spends the whole time they work on the kid trying to find neutral. One down, five up man. Or four.

I didn't watch any xgames but on this vid I really liked how Travis was able to really diagnose what went wrong. I guess I thought most of those guys just go out and hick it and hope for the best. When they get it right, try to memorize what up they did. It sounded like Travis really understood the physics of it all about how the two rotations work together.

Don't let facts get in the way of a good Vital beatdown.

He never grabbed the clutch until he and the bike hit the ground. Look at it again. But you are right, the rear wheel was still rotating like a mofo even with the clutch in. Kill switch and turning the gas off are always a good place to start in a situation like this.

Sometimes the freestylers don't have kill switches or they locate them on the frame somewhere to avoid hitting them. Either way.....bone head move........

Wrong.

Grabbed clutch, picked up bike, sweet doughnut, lost clutch when his azz hit the dirt. Grabbed clutch again, realized humiliation of mowing down injured rider on national TV.

What is it with the lack of knowledge and people involved in all this?

It's fricken' X games and so far, I've had some bat and ball stuff played over 2/3's it..
Watched 'X center' to make up for what I missed. Which included two uneducated idiots, who had no clue about any of the actual events. Even I know more about skateboarding than them and I don't even watch it! But the thing that annoyed me most about them, is the fact they were calling twitch: "Jeremy Stienberg" (Note the 'i' in there)

And then there's just generally had a lack of footage of what's going on and behind the scenes stuff.

All moto related broadcasts are going right downhill. From commentators, to actually being able to watch it. At the age of three i could watch races live, for free on normal tv- (and that's in England!) What's happening?

The whole scene is getting run by greedy corpo's who know nothing about our sport and just want to get as much $$$£££ as possible..

For the above.. Ever hear of the saying: "pay peanuts you get monkeys..." ? Proves my point.
