That's sooooo simular to what my brother did! Hahahahahaha nice work , although it was a bad crash i recon they did heaps well to roll their body over so that they didn't get that sudden hit.
Was the guy alright?

ouch man, how you feeling...what happened? and the important question..... how long are you out for? mind you i you did pretty well to roll out of it. better than faceplanting.

Same deal here although I did mine 2 years ago :) Clean broke mine in half I knew as soon as my arm wouldn't lift and the 2 bits of bone started jiggling together :S
Tis a painful recovery process, I re-broke mine so many times after sleeping through the night and it starting to knit back together and POP when you sit up... worst feeling ever!
Also be really careful cause it may have knitted back together after those few months but the bone does not reach full strength for about 12 months, I found out the hard way and re-fractured it from another stack 6 months after I did the clean break. A lot less painful than a clean break though!

I was out for about 15 sec or something, can't feel shit at first cause of shock, beleive me it was hurting in the waiting room of the hospital for 4 hours before i was seen... :/
my pain didnt kick in til about 5mins later. I rolled around on the ground, and tried to spit all the dirt out of my mouth. Then i tried to roll my shoulder around and WHAM. Massive pain. Then it was like 3 hours home and i had to hold my arm up so there was no stress on the shoulder. I got some pics of it in my album and ofcourse my avator!

ouch, that gotta hurt. lol, it was a head over heals sort of stack.
if you got a broken collarbone, that will be a bugger!
what i have been doing to pass time with a broken collar bone is watch the red bull events...

Did same thing on that 2nd jump, front wheel case somersault over the bars and whammoo!! into next kicker no broken bones just two sprained wrists, i hope he recovers.
I think the rhythems at red hill are going to break a few more bodies in the future. It's all in good fun.
