Video: X-Games; Extreme Skateboard Fall by Jay Brown

I really don't understand the X-Games, or much less partake in any of the events; however, I did catch the series in Philadelphia a few years ago at the Wachovia Sports Center/Complex. Of course thanks to Youtube, I wanted to post a clip one of the scariest falls that I have ever seen -- one that made me go "holy s**t"... Anyhow, the athlete you see, Jay Brown goes into freefall in this incredible halfpipe accident. He fell about fifty feet, landing so hard his shoes flew off. Brown was injured and will require surgery to repair torn ligaments.
