Way too much time to think. My brother would call that fall a "two screamer".

I watched that baby live, and was amazed that both his shoes blew off at impact, yet he was up about 5 minutes later. Them boyz are crazy...  :o

There was another one that the guys helmet shattered on impact at the bottom.  I don't remember who or if he was on skateboard or bike.  Those crashes can get real ugly! :o :o :o

The medical report was announced yesterday:

  • broken wrist
  • lung contusion

They thought he had a liver contusion as well, but that turned out to be an old injury. Overall, not too bad, huh?  ;)
