The High Point tunnel jump is very cool and memorable, but its not a huge jump. The turn is what makes it impressive, 2 more feet of run and everyone would do it.
Another High Point memorable jump is RC jumping the finish line past Stewart, the slow down and scrub lost out to the never let off approach of RC. The crowds minds were blown
This is a PA track named Roaring Knob, every once in a blue moon someone will huck the finish line and try to downside the table. This video he over jumps. One guy landed on top of the table, he landed so hard his bars bent down from the impact of langing

This hill still to this day is know as Magoo!

I agree with everyone's memorable jumps.
Laracco's Leap and Stewart at bithlo were also the first to come to mind when creating this thread.
Here's some other good Stewart ones. I looked for pics or vids, but most don't seem to exist.
- Stewart launching that single/single (almost double) over Davi at Freestone, TX.
- Stewart's line at US Open
Some others,
- Pretty much all of Steel Roots. But especially the hit off the side of that huge table top on Grayson Goodman's track. And of course the huge freeride step up where Metzger had to show 'em what's up.
- Cinq (RIP) and Micky Dymond in "Organ Donors" in the dunes. Cinq hits this huge razor-to-razor double. And then Micky goes for it but floats over the lip, causing him to come up a wheel short on the landing sending him front flipping through the air.
- the Watertower at Hardrock, FL. Its a cool jump to watch. But a hundred times better jumping it. It hips to the left, and you could really cut it and float over out in nowheresville. If you looked to the left it feels like you're 200 feet above the road below.
- Finally, Switchback Raceway in Pennsylvania. Rode there around 2002 and there was a double/double in the back. I heard only one other 125 guy had quad it, and of course nobody was doing it when I was there. So there was nobody to pace off of and there was no landing to triple it. Turns out it was a 5th gear straightaway for a 4th gear jump. I landed 20 feet into the turn and went over the berm into the resource pit. 4th gear worked fine after that.

Now that I think about it, Switchback was one of my favorite tracks, and I only rode it once.
The infield section jumping away from the grandstands, it was a double double double single. I was able to double triple double. It wasn't big, but it was hard as hell and it was a personal accomplishment to do it.
That's a pic of the front triple at switchback. This thing was stupid big but it followed a high speed gradual sweeper. It was really hard to know when to stop turning, as such I never hit it straight. But I really wish I had a pic of what followed this triple. A step on/off with a 2 foot face. A few people were quading the whole thing, and a vet dude with cadillac suspension tried it and he did half a front flip to end his night.
See Avatar. The flagger, luckily for me, had a camera. This is actually the second time I hit it..... same moto. I am so grateful that he took this photo. The following year, it was removed.
Balsa Wood for a week.
Pit Row
Kinda small, but this was alessi hitting holy shmidt im pretty sure, unreal
And probably the most ridiculous of them all...
You can't deny the Leap.
For some reason Freestone got rid of this jump for the pros, but it was gnarly
