I had to laugh at some of these - particularly the snow mobile: all self-inflicted 'accidents' seem to go with the territory. However, the dirt bike wiping out the kid was not good & should be a lesson to us all - remember that there are others out there!!

What made me chuckle was that damn snow mobile that wouldn't stop rolling and the idjiit following it and trying to catch it, whilst getting himself run over a couple of times, D'OH!

I don't think he had much choice in the matter! As I saw it, he and the snowmobile failed to make the last few feet of the climb and both went all the way to the bottom. There is a clip somewhere of the same incident, filmed from the top of the climb. The last 10m or so were much steeper than the rest of the slope and a lot of riders failed to make it.

He was damn lucky it didn't murder him on the way down. He did well to keep clear of it. Snowmobiles roll well, don't they?
