Video: Friday Fails #53

 I was just about to write that. Best way to break or dislocate a finger with almost zero speed involved... with a bit of experience you can tell it will happen already 2-3 bumps before. Oh crap I’m going too slow now, boing boing boing bam!

 @WAKIdesigns: For sure, the bike just slows down with each consecutive bump. You know its just a matter of time before the front wheel just doesn't come out of the next one.

 @sino428: I guess that's what wagon wheels are for.

 @endlessblockades: I've gotten those stuck plenty of times too.

 And it happens in real-life-slomo, that feeling of anticipation just prolongs itself. Just get it over with!

 @bmar: yea you have plenty of time to think about what’s about to happen.

 That’s what my overpowered dropper post is for- I just eject myself clear and out of the situation

 @Ryanrobinson1984: Wendy I can fly!

 I was in math class when I saw it. I finished my test already but half the class didn't. Laughing really loud is a distraction so... yeah...

 That one was the greatest, so much speed and then it all went horribly wrong. awesome

 All it needed was kurwa

 Funniest clip this week for sure. I guess he was expecting a right turn? Or just no turn.

 that was epic

 He wasn't the Friday hero we wanted, he was what we deserved.

 That was awesome!

 Also the camera not moving gave it a slight meet the Flintstones effect. Hil.

 Was about to write “2:18 ftw.”

 @jeremiahwas: taking superman in for a hard landing.....commitment

 Im pretty sure he was being sucked up into outer space by aliens... at least that what it looks like.

 You all got it wrong. He was riding a Pole Machine. No wonder he was that fast and horizontal.
/s

 This is what dude was thinking at the top of the run:

"Not enough speed: check. Not enough airtime: check. Not enough skill: check. Now let's do this!!"

 I can relate,
I tend to pick out the Polish swears and somehow it's funnier than normal 2:36 "Ja Pierdole."

 It's "tabarnak" and at 0:57 but clearly tells from what part of the world it's comming!

 @filoux75

 @lRaphl: Actually it’s tabernacle which is a reference to the church as are most French Canadian swears. Ironically they are arguably the least religious culture in North America. I definitely enjoyed growing up in Montreal some of the most fun people you’ll ever meet with no f-ucks given.

 Tabernac!

 @Bigbangus: You wrote it the good way. Mais on prononce tabarnak quand même!! ????

 @lRaphl: t'es ben sharp le gros

 @Bigbangus: Marci ben!

 Yes, for some reason these people seem to think hitting jumps IS mountain biking. Every week its 75% OTB from getting bucked on a jump

 Yah I consider myself a decent jumper but I wouldn’t hit some of the jumps these people are and they look like they have no idea what they are doing.

 Oh yeah, there always needs to be a pecking order by skill to trains like that.

 Those riders who you really ease off of when following them downhill

 Same here - I love the "am trying to stop my bike with my right foot"... so good!

 Just cause a bike weighs enough to have its own gravitational pull doesnt mean its all that strong!

 @keeqan: All bikes have gravitational pull, F=G*M*m/d^2, as they all have mass.
What’s more annoying is that people confuse weight with moment of inertia.
A) Both bike and rider (including body fat) contribute to the moment of inertia, a 1-2kg increase in bike weight has a negligible contribution to the total momentum of the moving system

B) Moment of inertia has both linear and rotational components, a 1/2 - 1 1/2 increase in wheel radius has a negligible effect on the total momentum

 @Ynotgorilla: whoooosh!

 

 More like shedding the bike.

 Ha heard that too

 Nah. All due to flexy forks and chain stays that all too long

 Boyoyoing!
