Looking at the clip; I see the front end dip just before he hit the bump, Im thinking he slammed on the brake just after he first saw the speed bump coming, with how fast he was going BIG MISTAKE. at that speed he should have gassed it.... wow my ribs are cringing just watching it....

I noticed that too, poor execution. He should have just blipped the throttle to get the front up a little. Braking right at the point of contact with the speed breaker was his fail.

I've flown over the high side before and it hurts!!!!  With his training he should have known better.  I hope he was not hurt bad.

As I mentioned in the "Natures Fine Art, What do you See" thread...my eyes are getting old and just can't see very good anymore. I have watched this video over and over and I never see the front end dive, even in the slow motion portion of the video. :nixweiss: At least it doesn't look like a #2 like in the other thread. :D
