I saw this over on the Thumper talk site, You laugh and feel bad for the guy all at the same time. Trust me I would have done a lot worse. Watch to the end, it goes from bad to worse.

Geting back on the after the first biff was nothing but adrenaline! Here you are, obviously your pround parents are taping this for posterity and you blew the jump! So, you dust yourself off, get the bike back up, start it and get back in the race.

It looked like he was starting to feel the effects of the first dump shortly afterwards as he wasn't really getting up on, nor staying all the way up on the pegs.

After he forgot the right hand turn, I think he decided that might have been the end of his racing career!

Thanks for sharing that.
