Nobody remembers the video from a few months ago -- guy tried to quad came up short and broke both legs, ect? It was filmed from a crane or on a hill.. perfect view. You could here the *thump* of him casing the last hill. The rider wrote about it either here or another forum.

I need to start saving all of these somewhere. Youtube search sucks.

Some people should stick to trail riding.

Maybe stay off the track.

This is Josh Coppins during qualifying for the 2000 Swiss GP at Roggenburg. It isn't funny, but is pretty hardcore:

Our buddy decided he wanted to start riding. We talked him into a nice, smooth 400. He bought it at KTM World, and here is what happened 6 minutes later...

Its not MX, but worth watching anyway:

HAHA...That was great! Sorry your buddy got hurt though. From the looks of that pine tree he must have nailed that thing. Y'all were relentless on him, guess thats all you can do in that situation though, just try and make him laugh. What was the final verdict on the injuries after seeing the doctor?

Even the paramedics were giving him a hard time! I guess all you can do is laugh when somebody cuts your pants off and your weenie flops out...

At 2:53 you will notice a large trail sign.. It has arrows pointing to the "easy way" and the "hard way". We still cant figure out why he went "hard"!

At 5:14 you can see an illustration of what actually happened. He broke his femur. He was posing for that photo befor the paramedics got up there. They had to bace him up like they did for the ride down the mountian on the back of a Polaris. It was a bumpy ride to the waiting helicopter. He is doing good now, but he is no Chad Reed. I think that might have been his last ride. I hope not, but he doesn't have a great taste in his mouth for trail riding.

Hats-off to the Staff at Highland Park. They took great care of this guy and responded in minutes. His bike is still there in storage!
