Default Narly heartpounding crash

anybody got any nasty crashes to talk about?? i was inspired to write this b,cuz of a fun experience earlier today ..i was blazn around my track at my parents place and went to nail a jump ive hit a million times before its not the biggest i got its about a 5ft clif 80degree incline to a flat plant its good for a 40ft glide with around 4to5ft of air nothing huge..well its been kinda rainy here in central VA for a couple days so the track was a lil sloppy in spots one of those spots was at the base of this jump ... MAN i hit that thing pinning 3rd gear and got a hold of wayyyy to much traction at the very peak of the jump so i soon as the back wheels lifted off i knew i was sooo F*@#ed it felt like i was going right into a back flip i let go with my back wheels ahead of my front almost completely upside down I didnt think i was every gona hit the ground i mean i could of recited my ABC's before i finally hit shoulders and back of my head first the quad looked like it went 12ft up and came crashing down on the handle bars then flipped and rolled for about 100ft everything worked out pretty good tho i didnt see any bones sticking out anywhere so i dusted myself off and flipped my bike back on its rubber only damage is some bent bars broke fender and bruised ***

Bruised *** or broken tailbone? If it's the tailbone, it hurts, for a very long time. Did it once, that was enough. Doctor thought it was funny, threatened to put me in an "*** cast".

I had a little spill...was riding down a dirt driveway and my friend was doing a wheelie next to me and coming up to the narrow part of the road, being stupid as i am sometimes i tried to go in between him and the tree in front of me and couldnt make it. Front tires rubbed his back tires as i hit the front brakes and needless to say, i looked like a dust ball. Came up with a broken ankle, tore every tendon and ligament in my shoulder and had a bruise on my pelvis about 12" in diameter.

Yea, thinking about it, it's a good thing you didn't bruise your *** bending the handle bars. That would hurt.
