Wow! An awesome example of ride it out. Failing to attempt it only guarantees a crash. I know from a few personal experiences of "I am gonna crash" to "Wow, I rode it out".... I still have the crushed header pipes from my last one.

It would be interesting to see that video of crushing headers.

Probably the only rider in the world right now that can continuously pull this stuff off.  One wonders how long he can keep doing this before his number comes up.  Simoncelli did the same thing and it killed him.  Luckily this is all during practice with no traffic.  Must give the team ulcers watching it.

Was I ever that invincible when I was in my 20's?  In my head - yes - for a very short time.  Then I learned the hard way and gained a healthy respect for the force of inertia, because it certainly didn't respect me!
