He might have really got hurt if he hadn't been wearing all of his protective gear.

I just gotta wonder what the guy on the other bike was distracted by. Seems like he really should have been able to avoid that goober.  :o Guess that's what happens when your playing to a camera and not everyone has the same script.  ;)
Life is good.... At least from my perspective.

I saw this online several months ago. There was also some discussion about his injuries. Seems that his ankle was shattered and almost severed. I can't seem to find the link again, but he may have even had his foot amputated, I can't really remember.

Supposedly they were shooting some kind of documentary and the guy doing the stoppie didn't follow the script.

Well, they documented a crippling injury.  Life is hard enough without doing really dumb stuff around aother really dumb people.  In T-shirts and tennis shoes.
