How Do These Crazy Fucks Not Kill themselves More Often? (pics)
 

I was never really familar with the whole free style moto thang until I got hired to coordinate a festival. These guys are out of their fucking minds. How do they not die more?

I'm sure many of them had many broken bones to get to where they are

Yeah, they practice in a foam pit but some of these stunts seem like straight
death if you don't land it.

they have insurance

Yeah, but im pretty sure that won't save them from breaking their neck:Oh crap

you gotta have balls to do that shit... fugg that

Alot them prolly do croak or get fucked up, just dosent make the news.

That's what keeps them movin'. They are not afraid to risk their lives for the sake of their sports. Risking their lives is a GREAT adventure for them. I admire them a lot.

I wanna try those extreme sports at times.

ask evil knievel

I had an aquaintance who was a pro moto-x racer.. he had sever friends who died on their bikes.. if they dont die they end up walking away from the sport with rediculous amounts of injuries. Most of them have broken just about every major bone in their body multiple times.

One of the top guys Travis Pastrana came up short on a jump a few years ago and compressed his spine on impact... the doctors said he would probably never walk again.. now hes back out there still winning competitions.

I thought I had balls riding my freestyle bmx bike on ramps all these years.. these guys are making me look like a wuss:(

the better question is what the hell happened to steve gutenberg.

Ok, that makes sense to me. :helpme

plus, they earn their living for those stunts.

I think what separates these people from amateur bikers is that they are quite prepared for those bad landings..

They are too much in love with their chosen sport that they won't mind risking their lives for it.

because they actually fly :P

how do you find out you can do it???

they do not know the meaning of fear. :winkwink:

if you survive your first dare devil attempt and you dnt recall the meaning of the word "FEAR"

:smokin

No idea, but they got brass balls!

Extreme sports are a kind of addiction.

After I crashed once I would never do it again. I always laugh when shark attack victims are back in the water as soon as they heal :1orglaugh

fuckin' maniacal

you would be suprised how much punishment the human body can take.. the freestyle guys are only doing 3rd gear jumps.. check out the free ride videos and the guys are doing 5th and 6th gear launches from hillcrest to hillcrest.. now that is where you might be risking it all

I wouldnt consider motocross or freestyle to be deadly. Broken bones for sure though.

I can do that shit on my bike...

i know a few people who do that, they occassionally get hurt, it amazes me they don't break bones like every fall.

it's the thrill that keeps them going
