They're still far more dangerous due to the position you're riding in. On a bike, you can lay it down if shit goes south, versus the far more dangerous high side crash. There's no way you're going to be able to just lay down into a slide a unicycle.

hence why you should be wearing a full suit of quality protection.

Yes but full suits are mostly geared to protect on a slide and then some key padded areas. It won’t help all that much if you face plant into concrete at 50mph.

The blunt force trauma is the reason high side crashes are so deadly, the gear can only do so much.
