I don't want to be a dick head cause it does suck that dude died, but he competes in a competition called the X-Games, the X stands for extreme
human beings are squishy and are not meant to do flips a 100 feet in the air on a 1000 pound giant hunk of metal
these guys do this shit knowing they might get fucked up
look at all those reality shows that are nothing but clips of these extreme sports people getting fucked up, limbs twisted, bones broke all that shit
at least he went out doing something he loved though I guess
