broken fib and tib
at least i got a helicopter ride

Damn that is gnarly! I have a friend who did the same thing last summer. The doctor told him that he basically broke his foot off, and the soft tissue was what held it together. Gross. Helicopters are pretty neat though. Smile

You are so lucky that didn't hurt; looks seriously nasty. I assume you ripped the nerves out too?

1 1/2 year ago My bars caught a tree at about 45-50km/h. went straight face to the ground. after few minutes started to feel a harsh pain in the neck. asked to a friend to go for help, by the time he was back with the rescue team(5-10min) I couldn't move my neck at all. went to the hospital and there the doctors told me I was at 2mm from the feet to be paralyzed down from the neck.

My first crash was like around 5 years ago. I was coming up at a jump but didn't have enough speed. I nose cased and i flipped a few times until my bike seat nailed me in the back of the head knocking me unconscious and finally rested on top of me. I woke up and felt fine surprisingly.
