one time i went over a jump and some kid had put his bike on the landing, and running up i couldnt see. i went over the top but bent his wheel loads, so much it couldnt spin.
when i first started riding i went off this super small dj and ended up nose caasing on the landing. went over my bars, landed flat onto my back, and knocked the wind out of me. luckily, it was on tape...
Where can we see a vid?:P
haha i'll look through my tapes and see if i can find it. i know its here somewhere....

one of the funiest crashes i had was when i was downhilling, didn't avoid a pothole, so ended up going head over heels three times and crashing into a load of branches and completly broke in half a really thick one on my back, looking at teh thickness of it i was supprised that i didn't break my back!!
looked really good though im told kinda did a forward roll on the ground still on my bike!
Okay will apparently when i bailed off a 3-4 drop and did a cartwheel in mid air and landed on my feet. Yesterday my friend dropped into a pond and slipped on the algae stuff because the bottom is concrete and algae is slimy, he slid on his arse for like 6 ft while smiling with the 'wtf' looks on his face
when we were kids me and my friend lee built some jumps in really narrow stretch of land, we chose the area because it was well hidden we had 2 small jumps which were good because we were still learning. Everything was going great untill i crashed and flew into the concrete fence post and broke it in half
my mate was doing doubles for the 1st time, he cleared the set a few times and then got a bit over confident!
he nose dived into the landing, instead of going over his bars like every normal person!
he somehow bent the back of his seat, sat on the wheel which then pushed his balls inbetween the bottom of the bent seat and tyre, while he was rolling down the transition. funniest thing i had ever seen!
I remember as a kid watching my younger brothers race against each other down a pretty steep run, only to watch both of them get clotheslined by what they thought was supernatural forces. Turns out it was an old clear maple sugar sap line that someone forgot to take down. It was clear enough so when you were moving it blended in with eveything else. That probably was the funniest thing I've seen as far as bike related crashes where no one was seriously injured.
tring to ride a tensioner that had the chain line way off.. laded firt jump ears skiped on da second nose case the landing face plant( i had rocks stuck in my lip).
lessoned learned never use single speed with a tesioner just doesnt work.
I was flying down a hill, in the city at the bottom of the hill was a traffic light, the light was red and I was timing it, so not going super fast, but fast enough. I hit the light as it turned green, as I was going through, a guy on a scooter jumped the light. I didn't even have time to hit the brakes, before I hit him. I flew over the scooter and landed on my feet. I was going so fast my feet were making a loud slapping noise, as I ran and they stung. I turned around and walked towards the guy, I was steaming, and ready to kill. When I got to him, he said in broken English, I pay, and ran to the other side of his scooter. I pay, was enough for me. He ended up replacing my fork and front wheel.
I just had a decent one: it was the typical case of front wheel lodged between two boulders, and you go over the bars. However, this happened: 1) REALLY slowly, we're talking maybe even 3 seconds 2) Perfectly straight, not to the side or anything. Man, that was fun (fullface + knee/shin = no damage done).
