  1. I'm ok with people not riding such a line, not filming the crash and not posting that non-video. We could all skip it and be the better.

  2. He broke 13 bones. Had to wait 45 mins for the helicopter, which couldn’t pick him up. Get a second heli to winch him up and deliver him to the first heli (that couldn’t winch). Blood transfusion on route but lived. He talks about it in the red bull podcast

  3. Damn….with the wondrous, hopeful music (like you see in lots of these vids) and the harsh cut to the fall, scream and helicopter, it almost seems as if the video makers were taking the piss…..

  4. You can’t fix stupid. Red Bull May be the worst corporate sponsor of them all. Young men and women will do anything if it gives them fame or bragging rights. Ego is a bone breaker. People are getting broken and killed competing in these extreme events and I’m not for banning them as it is an individual choice to compete. They will continue to push the limits of crazy to a point at which once the right person cashes in attitudes will change. They continue to amaze us with what they pull off and people watch for the potential carnage, me too.

  5. This clip doesn’t begin to show how bad it was. Look it up. It was literally the worst one I’ve seen

  6. Fck arnd find out? Play stupid games win stupid prizes? But kudos ofc, regardless -_-v

  7. Glad as bad it was it could of been a lot worse i hope RED BULL made a donation to the mountain rescue team as they rely on donations massively…stay safe
