- danknerd, on 07/20/2009, -3/+17New Trick - the double backflip faceplant, all the kids will be doing it now!
- missinglink, on 07/20/2009, -0/+12He really stuck the landing too - didn't move a muscle.
- shniper, on 07/20/2009, -1/+12he almost died...
- inactive, on 07/20/2009, -0/+6at least he is alive, someone else kicked it not too long ago doing something similar.
- cawble, on 07/20/2009, -0/+5You have to wonder, at what point did he realize this wasn't going to end well?
- iskin, on 07/20/2009, -0/+5He isn't dead but he is in critical. If you read the article you would know that.
- inotocracy, on 07/20/2009, -1/+6You take risks everyday, its called living. Plus, who asked you to feel sorry for him? Its all entertainment.
- Sideshowslob, on 07/20/2009, -2/+6"Oh man this is frakin awes....splat"
- YvesKlein, on 07/20/2009, -1/+5wow. what are the odds.
props to him though. I prefer being a tough guy behind a monitor. - swimmingbird67, on 07/20/2009, -0/+3http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c324/swimmingbir ...
- lotus22, on 07/20/2009, -0/+3are you kidding me? having a 200 pound bike crush you into the dirt from 40 ft up?
quoted from the site: Since the accident Cam has been fighting for his life in a critical condition in Madrid. He suffered a broken shoulder, broken cheek bone, a ruptured liver and was knocked unconscious. Due to the rupture in his liver he had emergency surgery for internal bleeding. Thankfully surgeons were able to stop the bleeding.
Hopefully he makes it. - MacBandit, on 07/20/2009, -0/+3The only people that are in shock are the people that never watch this stuff. Fans and especially participants expect it to happen at some point.
- itsthehumidity, on 07/20/2009, -3/+6I can't say I feel too sorrowful about this. If you want to be a tough guy with "no fear" then that's fine with me but don't expect me to feel bad when you face the obvious consequences. Nature has been selecting against this kind of rash behavior for a long time.
And as you can see, that dirt landing selected against him pretty hard. - boothash, on 07/20/2009, -0/+3At least double backflips are entertaining both when they make it and when they don't.
- tspchen, on 07/20/2009, -6/+8it didn't look that bad
- wayyy, on 07/20/2009, -1/+3It didn't look that good, either.
- amulrean, on 07/20/2009, -0/+2I had no idea people were even attempting this still. I thought it would be a one and done trick.
- nicktomyskins, on 07/20/2009, -0/+2o man he ruptured his liver
- krymson, on 07/20/2009, -0/+2ouch.
- jshhmr, on 07/20/2009, -0/+2Ouch! I live in Ft Worth and went to the X-Fighters event a couple weeks ago. These guys are INSANE!!
- heresy_fnord, on 07/20/2009, -0/+2UNSUCCESSFUL!
- Rainemaker, on 07/20/2009, -2/+4Posted response to "Motocross Double Backflip Attempt Ends In Face Plant" ends in a face palm.

- inotocracy, on 07/20/2009, -0/+1What, you want only one person doing a single trick?
- DirtPile, on 07/20/2009, -0/+1FTA:
"He suffered...a ruptured liver..." - aron1185, on 07/20/2009, -0/+1Careful... Had you said that on XboxLive, you'd be in big trouble right now.
- lead2thehead, on 07/20/2009, -1/+2How the hell do you even train for that? I don't think that anybody could get a back flip right on the first try.
- bricktown, on 07/24/2009, -0/+1Man that looks like it hurt.. Thanks for the video.
- TheAverageMike, on 07/20/2009, -0/+1in fact, i'm pretty sure they have been for a while now.
- Jikul, on 07/21/2009, -0/+1Ficou "desacordado"? Que raio de verbo é esse?
- hakkola, on 07/20/2009, -0/+1It was another guy who died a few months back.
I didn't know him though, so I don't really give a *****, people die all the time. - Xzelick, on 07/20/2009, -1/+1Was he trying the "double pits to chesty"?
- iancgi, on 07/20/2009, -2/+2Im pretty sure the guy died from that so have some ***** respect you internet cellar dwelling trolls
- reddfoxx1562, on 07/20/2009, -0/+0He did kind of almost make it, so, it could be that he stillhasn't figured that out.
- missinglink, on 07/20/2009, -3/+3FTA: "At this stage Cam remains in a critical condition, however has improved over night. He has opened his eyes and is responding to instructions to raise his arms and squeeze his fiance Brooke’s hand. This is great news, as there was bruising on his brain; the fact that he is responding to their commands is a really really good sign."
Can't we assume, from the fact that he was doing these stunts in the first place that there was pre-existing brain damage? - danramm, on 07/29/2009, -0/+0You thought either of those above were painful; check out one persistant mofo tryin to front flip off a roof over and over...

OR a film school edit of the same guy slammin into pavement all over:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unuWcAQET0U - Lauschy, on 07/20/2009, -2/+0" OH, SNAAAAAAP! "
(pun intended) - DirtPile, on 07/20/2009, -4/+2BOOM! HEAD SHOT!
- bkvideography, on 07/20/2009, -4/+2i love how one athlete creates the new "trick", and the rest just follow.
- elgordo123, on 07/20/2009, -11/+3So interesting when someone does something not only dangerous but stupid and then everyone is in shock when they get hurt or die. This and the guy that died during the running of the bulls are perfect examples.
