To say the least, He died! It was on tv :ermm:

WHAT are you talking about? :ermm:

He was fine but didn't attempt it again although I recall him wanting to. Can't remember wether it was because he didn't have a spare bike (that one was obviously rather f**ked after...) or that the doctors wouldn't allow him.

Did his front wheel explode on impact or something, or was that his down tube hitting the roof?

Awesome line, a little more speed from the truck and he could definately have had it.

Yeah his front wheel was totally demolished, the bang you hear is the inner toob exploding (Y)

I forget the guy's name, he certainly didn't die as he wanted to try it again... the cops came and shut it down though. Read about it in Ride USA a while ago. They had a whole article on sick crashes over the years. Some poor guy tried to transfer from a flat roof to icepick on a tiny sign about 6ft high. His rear peg hit the side of the sign and he landed flat on his face at full speed off a roof. Ouuuccchh.
