wear your gear

massacremasses · June 5th, 2012, 09:40 PM

a dude on my other forum posted this wreck. He admits being dumb and not wearing gear. He learned his lesson.

dmb5450 · June 5th, 2012, 09:44 PM

I just saw this video on Tosh.O tonight!

Jono · June 5th, 2012, 09:56 PM

Help help help help help help help help help help help help.

Haha that cracked me up. But damn. Just shows why you should wear safety gear. And especially full riding boots. He could have walked away from that if he had all the gear.

cuz · June 5th, 2012, 09:56 PM

i think its the 3rd time seeing this what has me baffled is him immediately screaming 4 help sigh** whateve

Robinhood · June 5th, 2012, 10:29 PM

If you don't want to skim through 10 minutes of video, impact is at 7:41.

fizzer914 · June 6th, 2012, 04:00 AM

damn man this is some crazy **** if he was wearing his gear i think he would have only got away with no roadrash the broken ankle/leg seems unavoidable u could see how it breaks wile he was falling + the impact from the deer was on the same side

NDspd · June 6th, 2012, 06:43 AM

Ouch man...nothing he could have done to avoid that encounter, but yeah he should of worn gear. Ever since my low side, I'm always wearing mine...I learned really quick.

haha yeah the forum it was posted on they all were saying it was on Tosh.0

ha I know I suck at getting karma on reddit. To many wise guys... lol

bdavison · June 6th, 2012, 07:35 AM

Yup, thats what it look like when you go over the handlebars too....minewas a high side, knocked the wind out of me, and when I rolled over, saw the bike upside down flying over me.

Dumping a bike sucks....but shoot...you could be living a boring life driving a cage.

So, he "doesn't need 911" and instead calls his mom. Wow. Yet his leg/ankle is busted.

lamchops · June 6th, 2012, 09:38 AM

lawl @ the mom sounding slightly annoyed.
"please? mom, please?"

rmorse · June 6th, 2012, 09:45 AM

That happened to me....I was on the road on my dirt bike (not street legal), racing my buddy who was riding behind me on my quad. We were doing about 60, and a deer jumped the guardrail. I t-boned it and split the mofo in half.

Long story short, I was wearing my helmet (not buckled) and my riding gloves. Helmet went flying off but after the first hit on the ground, so it still saved me. I had internal bleeding (intestines ripped from my stomach lining a bit), DESTROYED my right thumb (doctors were going to amputate it that night but were able to save it), broke right wrist, crushed three bones in left wrist, road rash through my right knee cap (and blew it apart), broke my nose, road rash all over my body. Jeans, hoodies, and skate shoes don't do sh!t in a crash.

Chopper lifted over to Suburban Hospital, spent 4ish weeks in the hospital, and about half a year recovering.

lamchops · June 6th, 2012, 10:02 AM

worst i had was a cat darting out of a bush to run across the street in two consecutive nights and different areas. wide open road in the middle of the night and it decides RIGHT THEN to do it. locked up and fishtailed a bit, some cursing ensued, but that was it.

Vergil · June 6th, 2012, 10:34 AM

Even wearing knee guards over my leathers I still get worried about injuries like that. Maybe I'll start wearing a full suit of medieval armor while I ride...

Dang, I hate cats, I wouldn't have hesitated to run over it. Now, I wouldn't go out of my way to run over it, and I am not on a cat vendetta...they just annoy me.

Unavoidable crash with avoidable injuries

greg737 · June 6th, 2012, 12:10 PM

As soon as the weather warmed up enough to ride motorcycles we started having motorcycle vs. deer accidents here in eastern Washington and the north Idaho panhandle. Most of the incidents (that are bad enough to make the news) happen on our 2-lane state highways were riders normally go 50 to 70 mph.

I think we're up to 3 deaths and 4 seriously injured and it's only the start of June.

bruises, unavoidable but an effed up ankle totally was. At least to that extent.

Poor fella.

I'm not sure whether it's best to brake really hard for something like that or instead steer really hard.

Did he apply any brakes at all? I think he let off the throttle a little but made no effort to swerve.

thats what i saw too. maybe he was not paying attention much and saw it a split sec before hitting the deer.

lamchops · June 6th, 2012, 08:59 PM

Hey man... That deer came outta NOwhere. Lol
I don't think I would've seen it 'til it was too late (either?). Sh!t happens. Thus, wear your gear!

Hehe

Have you ever had to take a ride in an ambulance? Unless I'm dying, take me in a car. You could rent a Lamborghini to get to the hospital for less than a short ambulance ride.

Ambulances have morphine. I'm sitting here with an $1800 ambulance bill that I have to pay out of pocket (I haven't gotten any settlement money yet and only half of what I normally make from disability). If you asked me, "Hey Sean, wouldn't you rather go in the car? Ambulance is going to be like $1800" I'd say "MY ****ING LEG IS BROKEN YOU DUMB ****ING SACK OF ****. IDGAF ABOUT MONEY! GO EAT A BAG OF DICKS AND GIVE ME HEROIN NOW!!!"

THE PURPLE DRAGON You'll never catch him,no matter how hard you try... but it's worth the chase.

psych0hans · June 7th, 2012, 01:47 AM

Just watching that crash was painful... OUCH!!! Hope he gets ok soon...
