Glad that guy is ok so to speak. Since this is what i woudl consider a professional operation, when he is almost done healing he should go over, say nothing and bash the Sh*t out of TP with a crutch. Not once but twice. Then walk over to the guy who did the calculations for the stunt/jump and kick him square in the Ding Ding. Stunts go wrong sure but that was a major major major F-Up IMO.

Why should he bash Travis? Travis wasn't driving.

Travis also said he landed it in practice.

IF he was in charge then you get the blame.

Then it was the drivers fault for not following the predetermined speed, what gear he was in, take off etc so glad he has insurance.

I'm not a lawyer and I'm sure they can drag the organizer into it, but there's that personal responsibility thing. I mean why should the driver have full responsibility for the crash?

Say what you will about Jim Rome, but this excerpt from an interview with Evel was pretty cool, esp the last line:

The axe one would have been scary.
