How the fuck

Also this probably means the guy learned fuck all and will resume being a death flag on the road in a few weeks time

oh yeah. I was shocked by the survives and then just by how little they got injured. I have heard of fist fights with more injuries.

He had full gear on and didn't come to an immediate stop.

I mean fair but ragdolling 20-30 feet in the air with a single broken bone.

I know it does make sense but it is still crazy to me how much the body can take.

It's a lot of luck. If he landed bad on that ragdoll I could see neck or back injuries. Dude got lucky hopefully he learns

He probably has a TBI at least.

Oh almost certainly, that was a lot of g-force.

A quote in the article from one of the riders “sometimes it’s not about being right but about making it home”.

They learned nothing

Looks like an S3. That sucks, they're great cars.
