Sometimes its just not worth the injury that can result from trying to be macho man. There isn't anything wrong with "walking today to ride tomorrow".

Another case of the Darwin awards. Hard to see very well with the grainy video. I guess you can see enough though. Looks like a long tumble down. Definitely not worth the risk!!!

This validates my argument against clip-ins. If his feet were free, he could've just bailed off.
It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

I like clip ins, but I also like it where you have the option to unclip, and still have a big enough pedal to push on.

Yeah I don't think he was clipped in either. Wouldn't the bike have stopped him or gone down the hill too?? I use the time atac pedals and I have them adjusted as loose as they will go. I think? Getting out is second nature now......

I don't think he was clipped in either. It just doesn't look like it in the video. My only problem is with the guys stupidity, which I think has already shown it's validity. Your hear someone earlier in the clip say, "Your not gonna try it?" and the other guy goes, "Look at the price for failure."
I'd like to know what happened to the guy though.

If he didn't break a bone, I hope that he went and bought a lottery ticket later that day!~Jason
