Next time you see Vince Carter struggle to get up after a minor bump, think of Jake Brown.

This crazy SOB lost control of his skateboard during the Big Air event, and fell 50 feet right onto his back (Watch video until the end). Most amazing part is that the dude walked away from the fall. Need I remind you, he fell 50 feet onto his back. Landed so hard his shoes flew off ... and walked away. I can't remember a worse fall in sports, aside from maybe Brady Quinn.

You have to give it up to these X Games Athletes/Crazy People sometimes.

I was watching last night, and I heard the announcers scream and yell after the first ramp, and I look over and see this guy fall from the roof. And he turned around to land on the part without the pads/protection.

0	(Edited by MrNFL) Wow! It's amazing that these guys can walk away from that stuff. I missed this competition, and I thought the guy doing the double backflip crashing was bad. Yikes!

0	Since he didn't get hurt just bruised i can sort of laugh at that a little.

0	The funniest thing is the announcer, seconds after the guy fell 50' and is lying there not moving, saying "I can't believe he made a 720" The guy is lying there, possibly dying, and he still can't believe the great move beforehand!

1	(Edited by Twiz) Wow that was scary, they should of gave him a high score just for walking away after that.

0	No doubt, it's amazing that he not only got up, but that he was able to get out of the hospital the next day and make an appearance at the X games. But kind of crazy he will be back next year
