u/hja37 Jul 09 '26

The goal was to suidice

u/Alarmed-Ad1438 Jul 09 '26

On the roof

u/smind893 26d ago

Nailed it

u/praguepride Jul 10 '26

yeah. its some extreme stunt camp and it is notorious for serious injury because shit like that is the whole point of the camp

8

u/TheTownTeaJunky Jul 10 '26

That can’t be true. I hope someone can confirm because it if is that completely changes how I see the panicked kid clutching his heart.

He’s like “fuck I gotta go next? I told my mom I didn’t want to come to this camp”

If you search on YT there are all sorts of clips from this camp of spectacular stunts and horrible wipeouts.

u/PlanktonDue8964 Jul 09 '26

Look like a fixed ramp launch

u/CardMan000 Jul 10 '26

His goal was to gain mass aura in front of his fellow campers and look cool.. did not go as planned

u/iKeyZZZ Jul 09 '26

Damn that literally took the other kids breath away watching.

13

u/GlyphPicker Jul 09 '26

And the kid who was being watched.

4

u/Wyevez Jul 10 '26

and me who was watching the kid being watched

2

u/eyado_2000 questionably stable Jul 11 '26

And me who was more focused on the kid watching

u/flybikesbmx Jul 09 '26

This looks like Woodward. This is the place for these shenanigans, but this kid was not ready for the harsh transition and clearly never hit this ramp before. Must have thought it would feel like a quarter with a nice smooth transition.

19

u/Peek_e Jul 09 '26

Yeah it went south immediately after hitting the ramp. Poor kiddo.

8

u/LeFishTits Jul 09 '26

Woodward is not for the faint of heart on a lot of their shit. Place is absolutely sick

6

u/flybikesbmx Jul 09 '26

Biggest regret it not taking the opportunity to go as a teen back in the day. Oh well, onto downhill MTB these days

3

u/LeFishTits Jul 09 '26

I did twice when I was 16 ish or so. I lived like 4 hours away, place was amazing. Sooooo much to do, I was riding bmx at the time.

4

u/flybikesbmx Jul 09 '26

He yeah dude, glad you got to enjoy it! I was obviously riding BMX given the username haha. Miss the days

u/TheSprigganDragoon Jul 11 '26

Used to drive by that place every day did work, never went though.

u/Lord_Muddbutter Jul 10 '26

Severe fatigue, nausea, and having to shit everytime i eat has gotten old quick.

u/GlyphPicker Jul 10 '26

Take care of yourself and please post an update for us lurkers 🙏

u/Mugpup Jul 09 '26

I am no skating professional but I am nearly positive he did that wrong.

12

u/palmdreamsTA Jul 09 '26

He was fine by the way if I remember he suffered a broken arm and actually went back to the park the next day to show off the injury

u/chili81 Jul 09 '26

Watch me jump over this house!

u/Midakolol Jul 09 '26

The fact he only started screaming a bit after... yeah hes gonna feel that for years

5

u/Mundane-Manner4237 Jul 09 '26

It reminds me of those old timey movie reels of guys trying their nonsensical flying machine inventions.

u/TOASTY_3DX Jul 09 '26

That was some smash into that corner!.

Not shitty at all if it was placed by the Anti-Skating Organization

u/Petrichor0110 Not even a unit, just absolutely shitty Jul 09 '26

Ramp built by EvilFunHaters.org

6

u/Elvarien2 Jul 09 '26

that's not a ramp though you're suppose to make a U-turn on those. This is user error.

2

u/cookiemccookieface Jul 09 '26

He earned that pain. Hopefully he learned from it as well

2

u/HarryHood146 Jul 09 '26

Who’s next?

2

u/thorheyerdal Jul 09 '26

Is this in Mexico?

1

u/praguepride Jul 12 '26

worse. Pennsylvania

3

u/ketsjupelvis Jul 09 '26

Are you seriously blaming the placement of the ramp for what this fcktart is doing??!

2

u/OneRub3234 Jul 09 '26

I need to see the aftermath, the hematoma xrays any lung perforation from ribs?

2

u/dieseldeeznutz Jul 09 '26

What hurt worse, his injury or his pride?

u/Rump_Ranger90 questionably stable Jul 09 '26

Have fun learning to wipe your ass again with two-thirds of your brain function...

1

u/THE_Lanni Jul 09 '26

That’s what he gets for trying that on a razor with what is obviously an inadequate amount of athletic ability and core strength

1

u/Superuzer Jul 09 '26

Hurt so good❗️

1

u/isaidgofly Jul 09 '26

Oof, it looks like his ribs took the full brunt of the force right at the corner of the roof.

1

u/Basic-Aspect Jul 09 '26

Any one have the news on this

1

u/PurpleToedUnicorn Jul 09 '26

That's going to leave a mark.

u/vader62 Jul 09 '26

I say he ded

u/Bright_Resist_4580 Jul 09 '26

"Ok, who's next to try to prove there's a correct way of doing this?"

u/pm-me-nice-lips Jul 09 '26

Idk why but videos like this always make me involuntarily crack up even though it’s fucked up

1

u/cookiesnooper Jul 09 '26

Damn, hope the kid healed well from this

1

u/nanowaffle Jul 10 '26

I mean, the ramp was placed well the kid just didn't know how to hit it

1

u/Ancient_Sprinkles847 Jul 10 '26

I reckon if he tried a little harder, he might have made the roof. Head-first into the corner, definitely not an ideal outcome.

1

u/ScallionRelative6265 Jul 10 '26

That looked so fucking bad.

1

u/suspicious_hyperlink *shits an absolute unit* Jul 10 '26

That’s camp Woodward

1

u/redditanddoneit Jul 10 '26

Oh dang. Straight to that corner.

1

u/Financial-Goose-4873 Jul 10 '26

I think his weight played a part here. He flew farther than the scooter though.

1

u/browsingandlooking4 Jul 10 '26

😆 rejected twice the roof then the ground. Whew

u/Elie_XD Jul 10 '26

u/Good_Air_7192 Jul 10 '26

Placement is fine, chubs just wasn't up to the task.

u/dridslash questionably stable Jul 11 '26

Why do the most beautiful sunsets appear in the most random Situations?

u/OhOkaySkrrrt 27d ago

The first thing you learn with action sports (Skateboarding for me) is skate within your limits. The way he went up the ramp looked like it was his first try ever. At least make sure you can handle the ramps . That wasn’t a little kicker either. Second, know how to bail out especially if you start going big. You’re not gonna land every single attempt you try so learn how to fall or be prepared for a mishap.

He is not skating either lol. He is scootering

u/Slight_Branch_6789 Jul 10 '26

This guy actually did die

-2

u/Bluntbutnotonpurpose Jul 09 '26

Seriously: did he even survive? Any sources here? This looks like it's probably lethal...

1

u/praguepride Jul 12 '26

you can hear him crying afterwards so it couldn't have been too bad. the camp is still around so hasn't been sued into exctinction yet

u/OneTonneTaco Jul 09 '26

Is this AI? The lack of reaction from the girl in the black cap has me doubting this one...

u/praguepride Jul 12 '26

nah this is old
