 If it was at 2:34, watching himself on this made his year!

 I love the rush of a good save on the trail, in a video ( now at saves#5) I am finding I would rather see a fail. Plus a cased jump is not a save...it is just a cased jump. Case a jump, get ejected off trail, hold on for dear life, avoid a tree, bunny hop a bolder field that is a save.

 A lot of these are people just getting very lucky; we'll see them on Friday soon enough. 2:04 is a true save though, and 2:34 is my favourite!

 Is it a save if you don't do anything intentionally in order to ride it out?

 2:04 was a true save, but also luckiest of all.

 The fact this is bi-weekly and the friday videos are every week should tell you a lot about your chances when someone is filming you ride

 Not convinced every single cased jump was a save. @1:31 and 2:06, nice saves.

 Fittingly for Sundays, the most common acronym we hear on this segment seems to be OMG!

 These are my new favorite kind of videos. All the thrills without the carnage.

 ...still plenty of bike carnage to go around. Poor wheels never saw it coming

 Wheel review by every single "I just cased the ish out of this jump and lived" save above: "Wheel tacoed on my first ride during the smallest of impacts, poor quality, not buying again!"

 My son got air lifted off of that same line at 2:24. Left the hospital the next day without so much as an aspirin. I will never forget that day. A proper helmet made all the difference.

 2:26 looks like a scary bit of trail.

 Yeah as soon as that one started, I said aloud, to myself: holy that is gnarly!

I would have ate it, not gunna sugar coat it. That was the best save, imo.
