Not entirely sure it's the same guy. Different jersey patterns, forks, wheels, and helmets. Could be though?!

 

What I do know is that the guy about to go OTB in the second pic is the 4X legend, Jared Graves.

 

Here's another crash involving him (far right)... this time BMX at the 2008 Olympics

 

Note a certain South African rider (Skizo, bottom left)

George Atherton falling off a mountain. Only thing better is watching him get knocked out off a hot seat!

Funny enough there aren't many images of him crashing, but those who have seen freeride films with him in, will know he can't go a day without a crash.

*education on *

 

why did this guy crash ? no enough speed to carry on down the slope ? land the bike to flat or to much on the back wheel ?

It appears he cased the landing with his rear wheel. This often results in the front wheel slammomg down hard and fast and the rider going OTB (over the bars). Clocking the front wheel also didn't help his cause.
