No clue. Saw that this morning and cringed. Even with the padding that had to have been pretty serious. Hope not.

Sometimes there's not enough time or people just panic. Given that comment you would have definitely saved it though.
Hope the guy's OK or at least nothing serious, that was a nasty hit.

That really was horrendous! WTF happened there? Stuck throttle? Or massive brain fade to whiskey throttle?

Seriously hope that guy is OK.

If he’s ok, he’s made out of whatever Gumby’s made of

First of all, glad he's somewhat okay!

In regards to that picture, we refer to "goons" as "Gumby's" here.

Everyone panics if the bike acts up. I didn't imply whiskey throttle, it seemed to me like a mechanical issue. Stuck throttle or something of that sort.

You must have a serious amount of experience hitting solid walls in 3rd gear pinned.

How can you say he didn't? Looks like he sat at the bottom of the ramp and accidentally opened the throttle and got caught by surprise.

That appears to be what happened....unless he meant to hit the wall wide fucking open in the attack position like he's drag racing down the start of Glen Helen.
