Jake Brown huge wipeout video from 70 feet at X-Games

by eunmac on August 5, 2007

I haven’t been able to stop watching this clip. It is quite unbelievable. A great 70 foot jump (pulling off an amazing 720) but then it all goes horribly wrong on the quarter pipe seconds later with a 45 foot freefall to the ground. Probably the hardest fall you will ever see …and amazingly he gets up and walks away (despite a bruised lung and kidney, broken rib, fractured vertebrae and whiplash). One things for sure… now the whole world knows about skateboarder Jake Brown from Sydney: 4 of the top 10 most popular YouTube videos are now all Jake. It hit just about every single front page of every news site on the planet and deservedly so. Hope you get better soon Jake -  your career has just been made! Good luck.
