On a serious note, I looked at that photo and got the same feeling I had when I viewed the shuttle blowing up...

It said his injuries were serious rather than critical and I'm taking that as a good sign. He's a Norco sponsored rider. I've seen his name before, I'm just not sure if he is in any of the freeride videos that I have. I hope he is able to recover and get back to riding.

<http://www.msnbc.com/modules/theweek...r=2002&num=203> They have a series of about 8 still photos made in to a flash movie showing the fall from the top down to the bottom. It also includes audio from Darren and the photographer about the fall and his injuries. He's doing a lot better than I thought he would be after seeing that first photo. He's got broken bones in his feet and heels, but his ankles and legs are OK. He says his front wheel washed out at the takeoff. But his seat still looks like it's at a funny angle. I wonder if it was his seat slipping that caused him to loose control and result in the front wheel washing out.

what about Bender?
anyone, well somone must of seen NWD 1, the begining with Bender doin the like... 40 or 50 foot drop,, would of hurt alot like this, if hed not of landed, bounced, and went over the handle bars. I would think that id rather crash on the bike right when landing than free fallin onto myh feet. or some part of the body. NWD has some nice big drops on it, with some not to perfect landings. lol but yes ouch a drop that big has got to hurt

'only' smahed up heels and feet. I say 'only' cause that's still pretty bad, but at least he has a spinal cord!
