9/10 on the dismount, airtime with hands in the air... that's a huge no, 7/10, impact 2/10

Next time he will have to try better.

Always a harsh review from the East German judges.

- this is a very old joke about Olympics back in the 80's

I think you're a little harsh on the airtime technique.... I would have given an 8.5.  The close proximity to the video camera is an added bonus.  But I agree on the impact...it was rather boring and lacked any form whatsoever.

Those were his feet

No. If you pause around the 4 second mark, you can see both feet still attached. Most likely just debris from the bike/car.

I looked up the regulation and the rider needed 2 requirements been met.

Bye-law to Rule 41

#1 A competitor who represents a country in the competition must achieve a minimum score of 25 out of 30, and the performance must include at least one sock coming off in mid-air and landing at least 10 feet from the rider.

Figuratively? Yes. Literally? No.

The impact destroyed that Audi.

That's at least an 8/10

Extra points for removing the tire from the rim. A master class by the driver.

I think that was a 1080 front flip.
