video here: 4 Wheeler Crash

 

thats not a good day. lucky it wasnt a 800 pound bike.

 

you're right stendori, if that had been utility quad, he would not have came out so ez.

 

Walk it off. You're okay.

Sometimes I wish I had a lightweight quad like that, like when I rolled mine over sideways down a hill. It was coming after me like that boulder in Indiana Jones. I did a backflip off the trail, landing headfirst into the swamp. Luckily the quad missed me that time. It went right by <u>and</u> it landed right side up after it was done rolling. I turned the throttle back right-side up and rode some more. You get lucky once in awhile, but I've been under a big ute a couple of times.

 

Ouchiee, Thats a bad one.

 

And that's EXACTLY why you wear the protective equipment. HURTS like HELL - but, you walk away from it. In this case the chest (& back) protector !!!! That solid piece on his back spread the impact out over a larger area so that the force just became a BIG hurt rather than having the force applied into one spot - with a BREAK of something. Still glad he basically 'walked away' from it. I'll bet he was taking some 'alieve' for several days !!!!

 

ouch look like he went down pretty hard on that one.Meh could have been alot worse though
