Keith Morelan - Massive Gap Crash

For a new video part, Keith Morelan hit an over 60ft gap and a 20ft drop with not enough speed. The result; a cracked frame, multiple broken ribs, and torn wrist ligaments.

 The big mama Oakley sender that Zink flipped was barely more than 60ft tip to tip. This is probably half that.

 Sorry to break it to you man @fabdemaere but that jump is about 74' 8" from take of to top of landing, with the sketchiest run in, basically flat take off, and only a 20% grade landing laced with sharp granite rocks underlying the dust.

 so its a 74 foot gap? because height is measured vertically and i was under the impression that's how drops where calculated. no disrespect to the rider though.

 Oh that's where the confusion could be, It's about a 20 foot in height, just a hell of a lot longer length ways.
