mite not be as bad as some of the 1's on here but rear hopping, brake slipped, fell back quickly, right ribs smashed of kerb, 2 broken ribs and it effing hurt!
lol! not a bike accident but the worst snowboarding accident in my life. I caught an edge and face planted at the beginning of the run doing a tiny huck on ER7 in Lake Louise. I ragged dolled most of the way down well basically almost free falled and was air lifted to Banff hospital. I broke my left wrist, snapped my board in 2, shattered my ankle because my right binding tore right off the board my left ankle twisted all the way around during the fall. pretty gruesome as well. dislocated my left shoulder, pinched 2 vertebrae's in my neck & Concussed and was knocked unconscious. don't remember the helicopter ride. lol! I walk with a slight limp. and I twitch once in a while. But i still ride with the best of them!
Fractured back was a pretty good injury for me in 2007. Or last season when I ate shit and got a broken shoulder, fractured arm, 3 fractured ribs and serious internal bleeding...landed myself in the hospital. That was pretty good too.
I barspun a small drop last year and cased it breaking my right ankle in 2 places. I still don't know what happened. I just felt the foot spinning clockwise more than it should when the backwheel landed. Thanks to the lovely portuguese health system they left me 4 days at the hospital with a cast, waiting for surgery. 4 days in a lot of pain. I guess an ankle brace would have saved me.
been there, with an apendicitus though not biking related
so when i went to surgery the doc said 30 more minutes and would have died
you must have a carbon fiber limb then? to ride your bike eh?
it happend may 4 almost three weeks ago so it still hasnt heald yet
Damn dude, that sucks so much and you are so young! Was it just a freak accident of being in the wrong place at the wrong time? Hopefully with your young age you can recover quick and adapt to a new riding style!
The worst thing I have had happen to me on my bikes is either having a chainring dig a few holes in my calf. Or the time when I crested a small hill at the bottom of a big descent, only to realize the trail made an immediate 90 degree turn. To say the least, I flew through the air and tried to tackle a tree. The tree won and the inside of my right arm was torn up.
