Ooh! That had to hurt!tup

yeh it hurt

Just be glad you didn't have it like this one kid who had prettymuch the same happen, but he had no bar-end-caps on his bar, and the end of it stabbed his gut, and when pulled out it took out a chunk leaving a hole the size of the bar!

Big bro and his mate said yeah weve hit the jump loads of times. They hadn't. The jump broke, what a joke. Ended up with a huge ass gash were the bars dug into my leg and rib bruising. Dont trust your brother.

Rode through some mud that didn't look like mud and ended up snapping my derailleur off.

It was like 9:30 and we had a jump in my friends backyard called the Leap of Faith. We lit up the run in with some lights and the landing with a spotlight and tiki torches. Between the lip and landing there was a little bonfire goin on. I figured I could clear the top of the tiki torches which were maybe 5 feet above the top of the landing. I went really fast and although I did clear them, I landed to flat somewhere down in his yard, I don't really know how I landed but yeah, that was the stupidest thing i've ever done.

Oh and another one was trying to manual a log over a creek.
