 Ooooh get your hands up and feel the bass!
It's Friday Fails time to smash your face!

See the joeys goin' fast, flyin' down the hill,
Casin' jumps, breaking bones, and exploding wheels!

They're the unsung heroes, all these boys,
So get on your feet and make some noise!

When I say Friday, you say fails!
Friday!
Fails!
Friday!
Fails!

All these dentists they're wickety wack,
They can afford a Yeti but they ride like crap!

Throw a huge whip and stick the landing,
But there's a tree in the way, brace for a pounding!

Check out your bro, watch him choose a bad line,
If you sit when you jump you're gonna have a bad time!

Friday!
Fails!
Friday!
Fails!

Crank up the gnar all the way to eleven,
You're gonna wreck so hard that we'll see you in heaven!

Buckle your helmet, we're gonna send this drop,
You overshoot the landing and you cannot stop!

You'd get on your knees and pray not to die,
But you're goin' warp speed and you get burned alive!

Friday!
Fails!
Friday!
Fails!

There's just one last thing that I hafta say,
"Dude, are you okay?"

*mic drop*

 When they say " the pros know how to crash to minimize injury"....this would be the exact opposite of that

 Oh shitter, I like that trick!

 Well, it's Windrock, so he was either exhausted by this point, not sober from the night before yet...or just givin' er ferda Jeeps!
  • 5 0
 Ya, I hope that guy or girl is ok, seems like he landed on his face after over shooting that jump by at least 10 feet.
  • 18 0
 The case at 00:44!!! I thought for sure that spray was his nuts exploding from the impact
  • 13 0
 I'm beyond impressed that the dead-sailoring guy at 2:29 completes a full front rotation without letting go of the handlebars. It actually seems like the best thing you can do in that situation, provided you have back protection.

 First I must say that I crash, we all crash, and I'll never pull for anyone to crash, but these Friday Fails are epic. I can't decide what is funnier: the actual fall or the comments from the camera operator and people watching!!!!
  • 6 0
 Not sure about anyone else, but I find that I learn quite a bit about what not to do, what would have been a better line, going too fast/slow and jumping techniques from watching my weekly addiction of Fri Fails. I find myself critiquing each crash in what the rider should've done - or not done in most cases.

 The no hander bollock lander looked painful

 @Dcp584: Nothing like a little name dropping in Friday Fails.

 LMAO!! The second fail; the guy literally just rode over the jump, as if that was going to do something!!
"I don't know why I'm not in the air making the jump right now...??" Wink

 Primarily most of the fail's today are bought to you by Faceplant yo face Inc...why dig that hole with a spade when you can use your face!
  • 3 0
 Gotta say, Yoo Yang's in Australia representing Friday Fails lately! I almost feel bad for the amount of enjoyment I get from these 3 minutes....ALMOST
  • 2 0
 I feel like the dude at 2:20 could have maybe ridden that out.

Like they say: If you start to crash, keep riding the bike until you've finished.

 1:05 ... that’s not how you bail bra

 All I got to say is if you have no intention of jumping, then don't hit jumps! At least not the gaps.

 Have to disagree here... but please keep recording for my own entertainment on fridays (and don't hurt yourself).

 2.43 looks like the highest consequence. Slow but fast wip into that rock

 His helmet fully paid for itself on that one - and will need to be replaced!

 @1:40 "that's mushy as" sounds like a Kiwi, then a couple of seconds later is a dude in a full-face in a beater and stubbies. Can confirm, definitely Kiwi.

 Did the same guy with the GoPro sticker on the top tube appear twice?
  • 4 3
 Speed would have prevented like 90% of these. The old adage "mountain biking gets easier the faster you go" rings true

 Is that rock roll at 1:07 the same as the one in "the crash heard around the world" on GT's YouTube channel?

 I avoid jumping and ride very low all the time, just in case

 You think that second rider at 1:38 really missed that rider 15 feet in front of him wrecking? Down rider, down rider...

 Advice for all those who went over the bars: just do a front flip.

 might have been a pedal strike on that rock

 Looks like his pedal clipped a rock

 Some of my most grueling wrecks are the "Seat up/cranking along bobbing and weaving/pedal strike/chest slam OTB/Can't breathe/still clipped in" kind.
