    I laughed pretty hard at the one trying to roll over the ledge and log, just cause of the rag doll effect. I was like "PULL UP!!!"

    Dude, 14 is ROUGH.

    13 is why I've never tried Flow drop.

    Poor Miles...

    The #1 video is Miles from San Diego. It was a few years ago. If I recall correctly he got really scraped up but only broke a finger.

    I didn't get past 14. It's just like when i'm channel surfing and i come across "Scarred" on MTV. After i see (and hear) the first guy break a bone, i gotta turn it off. Can't take it. I'm such a wuss.

    Just for the record the rider in #4 is not Japanese, but it is in Japan. It's Eric Barone, and I think he broke the MTB speed record at the time.
