"near death experience..."
it probably was more of a near death experience for the spectators who were dying of laughter.

Yesok. No, honestly, two ways this could have happened. No one tightened the pinch bolts on the left arm, or no one tightened the pinch bolts and the bolt cap that goes in the left arm, either way, this could have been avoided very easily. It's only two bolts you need to tighten. Still funny though, must have sucked landing.

What a co-indidence this is,i was reading one of my recent mags the other day,(Decline,Dirt,MBUK),it was one of them mags.
Anyway their was a berm shot getting owned by two riders,from that classic above shot,and Dr Steve Peat was pulling no bones that he was riding a Morewood,same colour and model as the one in todays POD,yet anybody who has ever seen Dr Steve Peat will tell ya that he does'nt have brown eyebrows,and brown eyes.So who is this mysterious rider?Plus no TLD D3,which is like the "Bill" without any fans,as far as Peaty goes.

Forget what you read above,there is in fact another Peaty in the land of Oz,and thats the pic i saw the other day,when it was POD and at that time i only knew of one Peaty,put 2+2 together and came up with 6,so i deserve any flack coming my way from the land of Oz,but just to try and wet the flames,i think this rider Peaty is the real deal,crank failures come and go.But the brave photographer of todays POD needs full props for still being where he is,keeping it in focus,then commando rollin out of the way.But if you have a look at santacruzinvpfrees album,you,ll see more of him in there,he's the real deal.

i ride at that track twice a week for racing and gates that jump is easy to recover off and he must have felt the cranks coming lose before he did that jump and you need a special tool to get the drive side off

Why exactly would anyone intentionally smash their nads just to get a photo that everyone was gonna say is fake anyway? If anyone was going to try to "set this up" don't you think they'd be smart enough not to use clip ins? As far as I can see, there's no way to fake that without paying a big penalty. Not worth it.

Looks like the cap has come loose and the spindle has fallen through, his fault though, should always check everythings tight.

Rule one of basic bike riding-
Before you start your days riding, Always check over the bike to ensure that nuts and bolts are tightened and secure.............

how could you photoshop that?? it would be f*ckin hard to photoshop the chain where it is, going over the roller, and all the spokes are right, if this is fake it's a bloody good photoshop

most of the people who scream photoshop, just use it to fcuk up pics. have you guys had a crank fall off? it happens, QUICK! wouldn't take long for that to slide off, maybe 1/2sec to slide out, look how far back his leg is, i would say it's about 1/2-1/4 sec behind him, so that is probably about right.
