He posted another update. For those of you that are long time watchers of his videos, you'll probably find it pretty interesting. He's had a pretty horrible experience with his wife

M13 posted the video of his crash. The first part is from his bike cam. The second part is from the headcam of someone on his tour:

I haven't embedded it because not everyone will want to see it. It's not gory, but it's pretty disturbing. Here is the youtube link.



On a positive note. He is recovering well and making videos again like this:

Did he just fall asleep/blackout riding? Jeez. I don't understand that crash.

I'm amazed he didn't have more injuries after flying over a wall and landing 20+ ft down on pavement.

What a weird crash. It looks like he just drove straight off the road.

That's exactly what happened. He said he just looked at the scenery for too long and went off the road.

Nope. Nothing wrong with his scooter (what he was riding at the time).

He did -- and does -- have a ton of injuries. He lost fingers and smashed one of his legs to pieces.

That was rough to watch. If I were there, besides keeping him still and try to keep him conscious while waiting for EMT to arrive, I wouldn't know what else to do =(

I'm definitely going to do a bit more research to broaden my nonexistent knowledge. Found a good thread on this subject matter if anyone's interested.

I did that exactly once (take in the scenery) nearly blew a stop sign. I stop now if I need to bask in the view.

when the news of his accident first was announce and described, i thought he went off a much higher wall/overpass than what he actually did.
