Rossi was the one who seemed to popularize this, but it was years before he injured himself. Remember, he was the guy that had a many-year streak of never missing a race as he simply never did get injured, and walked away from each of the (rare) inevitable crashes. That's why when he snapped his leg two years ago, there was such a hubbub about how it might affect him afterwards. Some feel that the injury has affected his results as much as the switch to Ducati (the following year).
