Holy hell. Look how his shoes went flying as soon as he hit. That's insane.

He looks rather dazed afterwards. And he's very pale.

Amazing they actually let him walk away.

Skateboarder Jake Brown, whose 45-foot free-fall Thursday night brought a hush to the Staples Center crowd, remains hospitalized after suffering contusions of the liver and lung, stress fractures in his vertebrae and a small fracture on the top of one hand.

I'm surprised he didn't make his legs break. I love the shoe flying, reminds me of a skit Dane Cook was talking about.

I can't believe he's fucking alive. I think I just replayed that about 15 times.

I heard today on the news that he's out of the hospital.

Video is no longer available, copyright issues.. I actually saw it live though. Not that I was watching the X Games, but it happened to be on for some reason. Good timing I guess? Crazy shit though........

Yeah, I was shocked to hear that he walked away from it. Someone's a damn lucky guy, heh.

I read that they are getting sued by someone. I was going to post the story but decided to start drinking beer.

Miller Chill + Corona = One fucked up HoH. I get to really drink this weekend when I visit friends in my old town. I don't like getting drunk by myself, but when alcohol is there it is fun. I'm hoping we can spring for some higher priced shit.

I was actually watching it right after it happened, pretty intense .. definately. He fucking landed the first huge ass jump which was sweet, then tried going up and totally lost that shit...
