    As a 42 year old man that’s grew up in the hills of Southern WV in Hatfield & McCoy country, I saw y’all have some vids here. You getting out of that crash with that minimal damage don’t have nothing to do with machine brand, driving skill, aftermarket components or anything like that. You just had a horse shoe In Ya back pocket that day. It was all luck and the good lord. But I’m glad it worked out that way for ya bubba. Get Er fixed and give it hell. Good vid I’ll sub I just found ya channel.

    If you haven't been to church yet to say a thank you, you probably should. The harness saved you from being hurt badly. The sturdiness of the Kawasaki suspension and even the cage are impressive. So glad you're able to make this video and live to ride another day.

      I agree!! The harness and cage definitely did it's job protecting him. He just had a custom cage built and installed which should help protect him now better than that stock cage. Thanx we are all very happy he was able to walk away from this one! Thanx for watching the video.. I really enjoy making them and thankful I will be able to make more videos with Mike.

    That said, Carburetor Hill is not on Hollerwood. It is closed by the Forestry Service. Maybe change the title of video so others aren’t misinformed that this is a part of Hollerwood Park.

    You are definitely lucky to be okay. But just so you know? The reason your cage isn't bent is because you're a roll cage didn't take the brunt of the impact. A buddy of mine rolled his k r x over on its side at tackett creek and bent the cage three inches to one side or the other. If you're going to be hitting trails like that you should definitely get a stronger cage.
