That just SUCKS! Poor guy, but he was doing so many things wrong there. No helmet, no tie downs, ramps way to short. I hope he recovers quickly.

maybe if he didnt ride up it like he had a manpon in his rear he would have been fine. Geeze I have a trifold ramp but as a kid i drove my dirtbike up and rolled it backwards down a single wood ramp from an F250 without issue....

I do feel bad though cause he's old. if he were in his 40s or younger i wouldnt feel compassion. But i still had to point out his over cautious loading most likely contributed to his bluder
