has there ever been a TT where someone hasn't died or been seriously injured? that is fucking amazing that he survived that crash.

oh, and the ragdoll physics tag would fit here.

Helmet cam vids from the TT are absolutely terrifying - much more so snaking through the towns where zero effort has been made to move telephone poles etc away from the course.

Also: ECE 22.05 standard helmets + kangaroo leather w/ elastomeric inserts are pretty magical. I got by with kevlar insert jeans and luckily never had a high-side before I decided to part with my donorcycle.

Badly broken left arm, two bone fractures in his back, a dislocated knee and ligament damage, bruising to his lungs and a hairline fracture to his pelvis

Yeah that probably hurt



a lot.

Go ahead and watch TT3D: Closer To The Edge, it's really interesting if you're into motorcycles or racing.

I refuse to believe a time traveler didn't put a trampoline behind that ridge to save this man's life.

Trauma centers have gotta love this shit.

Holy shit. He bounced over the dry stone wall.
