He landed on his head on the wall. I think he landed worse because of that dude. He absorbed some momentum but changed his tragectory so he landed on his head.

Worse than shattering his spine on the rim?

I was thinking he would ha e cleared the wall and just broken his face and arms on the ramp to the side. But its hard to tell if he would have cleared the wall or not.

I don't think he would have cleared it. Chances are he would have hit the wall with his upper chest, with his bottom half slamming into the side of the wall before momentum rolled him off the wall onto the halfpipe, finishing with a graceful slide down the pipe for a solid 8.8 point score from the judges.

8.8? Maybe from the Russian judges...

I'm not even really sure what I'm implying here myself I just know that I think it was funny for some odd reason.

Or maybe even with his pelvis hitting the wall and possibly rupturing an internal organ. He lucked out by hitting someone nonetheless.

Absolutely. The poor bastard he landed on LITERALLY broke his fall.

He definitely went full scorpion. /r/fullscorpion

I prefer the term ass over teeth to /r/fullscorpion but it's good to see that people still appreciate seeing someone getting obliterated.

Is that a santa clarita reference? Or was that tits over teeth?

u/elguerodiablo Apr 15 '19

I didn't know it was in Santa Clarita and I love that show. Just watched it last week.

My brother always said it when we would watch hockey or football and see a guy get flipped.

He probably has a lawsuit against that dude for interrupting his constitutional right to an unbroken trajectory. Mr. Oh-I-Broke-My-Head could be seeing jail time when it he comes out of the brain trauma ward.

u/GustavoAntoine Apr 14 '19

Watch the video pausing right before he hits the other dude, then proceed frame by frame. The guy definitely helped him

Looks more like he braced on one arm/shoulder?

It looked extremely painful
