rode into a drainage ditch trying to buy some lunch. yeah dont ride your bike to get lunch... you might put 5 breaks in your pelvis, break both bones in both arms, wake up to a doctor telling you one of your nuts is out of the sack, and spend a month in GC hospital :suspiciou
can see the sick rut i made on the other side of the drain... and the guy in red is where i ended up landing minus the bike, conveniently in a black ant nest haha

well im lying in hospital atm with a smashed lower arm bone (ulna i think) and i snapped and dislocated my wrist.
happened yesterday arvo on my fmx ramp. had it set up to about 20m gap to the top tip and i overshot it by about 5m coming down landing on the front wheel slightly as you would normally land and yea done some serious damage not only to the bones but muscles and tendons. getting surgery tomorrow and having a plate put in my lower arm with a few bolts. pretty stupid accident but just made a wrong judgement even though i have been over it a heap of times.

well it wasnt me it was my dad. so he was going on a 3 day trail ride with some mates. the first day he crashed out in some rocks. 3 broken ribs, 1 broken rib and a snapped back fender later he got back up. haha. turns out they were about 10 minutes away from a river crossing where they get this guy to take them accross on his dingy. so his choice was either stay out in the bush for the night without anything but his bike and riding gear hoping that the guy would notice him the next day, or continue on with the ride and sleep comfy in a hotel each night. they had know phones on them so they couldnt call for a helicopter or anything so he kept on going with the fender broken every bog hole he went through he got sprayed all up his back haha. he rode the whole three days with his injuries which the nurse wouldnt let him go to work and ride on his ct110 (he is a posty) with for 3 weeks. no pics of the swelling or anything though sorry guys, nice story tho :) haha.

I tried a pissy 60ft at some dunes and a nice gust of wind sent me sideways and i landed facing sideways and screwed up my knee and femur. I found out I had like 4 fractures in my knee cap and a bit of the cap chipped off and is now somewhere in my leg and i have a fracture on the bottom of my femur where the knee cap slammed into it. I had internal bleeding and all sorts of gay shit. I missed 2 weeks of school because I couldn't walk and when I used crutches I couldn't make any movements in my leg or i would die from pain. A month later where I had my first ride since the crash (too early but I was itching for a ride) I pinned it over some whoops and hit a log and ripped my wrist apart. Pulled all the little bones in my wrist in weird positions and stretched a nerve. I got knocked out and had to take and ambo to hospital. They gave me 5 shots of morphine which is almost equiv to a shot of cocaine.

went straight through a barb wire fence in 3rd gear and got coathangered pretty good was lucky the top wire hit my chin guard then ripped my head back before it got my throat, the second wire got me across the shoulders so saved my throat a bit fom the impact. got off lucky with some hectic bruising and a few cuts, probably not my worst injury or not necessarily a bad one but definatley the one that scared me the most just cus when i got up my neck was numb and there was blood coming out everywhere lol thought i was going to die

Damn thats sucks.
Ive already managed to break my wrists and collar bone within 2 years?. First day i got out on my spankin new 230F i hit a rock which slammed my front tyre into a rut chucking me to the ground, worst thing was the rock i hit was the same bloody shape and my collar bone so it broke it, I didnt think much of it thought i was just sore 3 days later i went to see the doctor. Turns out i broke it :lol:. Broke both wrists with as my mate calls it a Superman Impossible without the bike, again the 230F i was chasing him while he rode his 450R8 and because the 230F is a slug i needed to keep the power up, Didnt make the correct turn in time and hit yet another rut and destroyed my wrists, He said they looked really funny i told him to get F'd. an hr later i was sitting in hospital with casts.
So far they are my major stacks ive had a few drops cuts and bruises and a sprained wrist.

worst ive had was when i was riding at ripleys mx track i was ridng around and found this 60ft table top, thought it looked cool so i tried it, did it a fair few times but my dad said we had to go so i said ok just 1 more but as i went up there was a rock or something at the top of the lip which my back tire hit and the bike went sideways and i landed like that. had to ride back with no front brake and very twisted bars. but i only suffered MAJOR sweling, bruising and sore arms from my elbow up on both arms but dident break a bone so im not complaining. but never say 1 more time lol

Haha Jake-yz125, you look pretty happy in that pic with your swollen shoulder, looks painful to me. Ive broken my right scaffoid after having to hit the brakes hard chasing a bombadier quad when he suddenly stopped and i highsided, took a long time to heal, also ripped a collar bone out of the joint and dislocated both shoulders after taking a trip over the bars in the bush and when i was 16 I shattered my left foot and dislocated my ankle after missing my footpegs coming back from a heelclicker, that one hurt!

Sitting here with a broken left ankle at the moment. Unfortuneatly it was from me being stupid and jumping from a balcony. In the past have had a 3 broken left wrists, 1 fractural right arm and a dislocated pinky finger. None have been from moto crashes though, all pushy related stuff.
