Re: Red Bull Rampage finals today!
yeah, 2 riders had to be flown out by helicopter after they crashed, luckily "just" stuff like broken legs. the especially dangerous thing is that they can not wear a brace to protect their neck, like it is done in normal downhill races, because it would hinder them during tricks....so they just wear a chest/back protector.
here's a nice video from the qualification runs, check the crash at 0:58
