I feared for the worse initially, the way he flew through the air and made impact on the concrete off camera made it even scarier.
Was happy to see him up with the medics before going to commercials.

My scream just woke up the wife & daughter asleep on the couch. That was rough to watch. I don’t know what he did to deserve this but man I just feel so bad for him. He cannot catch a break. Hope he isn’t as bad as it looked

I’m actually terrified to see it from a different angle. That was some worst case scenario type stuff flying upside down and backwards through the air like that.

I can’t believe what I just saw. He was looking so absolutely amazing, best ever I’d say. Tomac last year. Forkner tonight. I know there’s a difference, but I really hate this sport sometimes. Most importantly I hope he is okay. On par or above to Webb in 2020.

I was just thinking before he went down, How far he has come from that cocky teenager. Into a mature likeable rider. I hope he's on the line next race.

He did the same thing a lap or two before and I jumped out of my seat. Unfortunately it ended up biting him shortly after. I hate to see it.

That chest/back protector might have saved his life. Hope you guys are all wearing one.

Would be nice if they could line the concrete next to rythms with something like wresting mats to soften the blow. That hit was brutal 😢

We can only build 9 whoops but let’s build this hump you have to wheelie wide fucking open, then for shits and giggles let’s put a knuckle on the landing. Again, I hate sport sometimes.

ugh… he’s lucky his neck didn’t snap. His head hit, folded, and then recoiled back so hard..I can’t believe he was walking

Had to distract my wife from seeing the slow mo replay...that was horrible. Him walking it off was a sigh of relief. Shit, maybe he's injury free and lines up next week. Would be badass

That 2nd shot, holy shit. You have to think that the MIPS system was designed exactly for that type of quick rotation and hit. Scary stuff and extremely gutted for him.
