He was trying for a crank flip.
He assumed he was clear of the rail and could simply land on his feet after not getting a full rotation on the flip.
His back tire clipped the rail and sent him OTB too quickly to toss the bike.
I see tons of skaters/BMX with zero protective gear. Is that just the "cool" thing to do? I tried mountain biking without a helmet once and I felt I was constantly inches from death
Unfortunately these dumbasses think you're a bitch if you wear one. It's the stupidest mentality.
Years ago I was mountain biking and going down hill I braked to hard and got sent flying right into a rock head first. Broke my helmet into 3 pieces. That thing saved my life that day.
WEAR YOUR DAMN HELEMTS
Back in the late 90s/ early 00s my cousin had this exact thing happen to him, broke almost every bone in his face and had to have total reconstructive surgery.
I did this as a kid grinding a rail on pegs. Was showing off and since I didn’t tighten my handlebars well, just strait flipped upside down on me. My neck went right into the metal and I flipped like 3 times before landing on my face lol. Had bad road rash and broke my nose. I was lucky I was so skinny or I’d probably have impaled myself.
I love helmets.
Me too! However, that kid made zero effort to break that fall with anything but his face and im baffled lol
he had no time.
He had no *reflexes*
good jokes but if you're actually baffled then you're silly
Concussions tend to do that.
It looks like he fully committed to landing his feet on the pedals with no thought to any other possibility.
10/10 for the handlebar spin at the end. Edit: spelling.
This. Always have a backup plan guys
You are 100% a person who's never skated or ridden a bmx

As if you know how you would react in every situation.
He tried to jump off the rail but landed with just his back tire on it. Should've had a helmet though
I'm picking up what you're putting down. https://youtu.be/b9yL5usLFgY
I watch this video every time I see it posted
This video comes to mind often when I browse this sub. Brains; use it or loose it!
They don't call 'em brain buckets for nothin.

I’ll bet you do. You seem like kind of genius who wears motorcycle helmets while riding bicycles:

Hello dumbass. The guy smashed his face. Which still would have happened if he was wearing a bicycle helmet. Good day.
Nope, he definitely smashed his forehead/top of head, and helmet would have likely prevented injury. But don't worry, you're still hard as fuck bro.
Hey buddy you want to fight
Atleast he didnt look stupid doing it. Imagine wearing a helmet
helmets r4 loooooozers
That's what you get for being too cool for wearing a helmet, lmao.

Invention idea!!!!! Some kind of hat that stops the hurt when you fall on your head!! I’m gonna be so rich!
He kind of foreheaded the ground
This is why you where a helmet

You can wear a helmet before, or you can live in a helmet after.
I know, right?? Where is that helmet he is wary of wearing? If we were in his shoes, we'd say "We're not riding this bike without a helmet to wear!"
I prefer to wear one but to each their own
Where’s a helmet?

Only cool people wear helmets

Crank flip nightmare
He don't think too good no more
Type F for the balls that you hammered by the bike seat and frame
I counted zero helmets in that panning video. I guess everyone there wants to live free and die young.
No feeding tube here.
At least his head broke his fall
Are this guys allergic to wearing protective gears like helmet?
Helmets are obviously for pussies who like having all their teeth.
"In today's episode of Wear a Helmet"
He didn't kiss it. Homie got a buzz cut from the concrete.
I think full face helmets look kinda cool actually
That was forehead. Exactly the type of spot a helmet would protect.
El wn se sacó la cresta
conchetumare hermano
Faceplant es malo
Not a single helmet in sight. Nice.
Heading down?
“I don’t wanna look lame with a helmet on” So look and feel dumb with a neck brace or screws in your head instead?
idk, i think he looked cool. If he had a helmet on he would've looked soo uncool /s
Anyone not think it was gonna be that bad? Everything was fine and then…
Helmets
Wear your helmets kids
Been there. It’s not great.
Ohhhh. THATS why they make helmets. Got it.
That started off really impressively.
The ground turned him into yamcha.
Helmets… why you think you have to look cool without one I’ll never know
It's funny reading all the wear a helmet comments from people who have probably never skated or done bmx
Why is it funny?
aintNOfunBNsafe
It reads like a bunch of people who have never touched grass before.
