And I'm responding, I'm like, all right, if I stay on the bike,
The front end will take a little bit of the hit.
And then the bike, like it's probably gonna kill me.
I'm like, all right.
And I looked around, like literally in my head, all this is happening all at once.
And I'm like, all right, there's, it's just grass.
There's nothing that I can land on that's better.
So I'm like, all right, I'm going to take a big jump off of here because my dad always said on a bridge, he goes, look, you want to jump off this so you know how you're taking off.
And I remember I stepped on the handlebar and I jumped as hard as I could with confidence to be in the spot that I wanted to be so I could potentially best take this impact from four stories up at 70 miles an hour onto this grass hill.
And as I was flying through the air like a spider monkey,
I thought to myself, I'm like, this is really cool.
I'm like, I know it's really gonna hurt right there, but how many people get to fly like this?
And I landed, I destroyed my knee, I knocked myself silly, it was pretty bad.
But the bike didn't land on me.
Yeah, it probably would have killed you, actually.
Pretty much ruined my career.
Knee was toast, everything was, same knee that I had hurt earlier, so.
Rolled out of it okay.
Ish, considering, you know, only a blown out knee, not really anything else to speak of from such a big jump.
Sorry, I keep hitting this.
