Chris, Watched this three times and cannot get over your style and toughness. I could use some friends like you. Looking forward to more of your inspiring work. Very best to you. John
Awesome spirit after all that happened! I've no idea how long it would take you to recover but definitely, "not if, but when!" thank you for the inspiration! :)
I would just like to point out for any American viewers, see the air ambulance, the surgery, the hospital stay and all the doctors and Nurses? All free. No need for any insurance. God bless the NHS!
Seriously, did you just say that? THIS IS THE LEGEND. Chris is older than danny and a many times trials world champion, I'd tell you that he inspired danny but someone luckily has already told you that.
hi! sir chris, i just got into mountain biking,... and i just got my Mongoose Khyber Elite 2010... last of its kind in singapore. got it at a good good price,, because of clearance sale. i really admire your videos, watching it makes me brave to attempt downhills and hit the ramps. i grew up with a bmx, due to some reasons... i stopped. i know this is too much to ask from you... or its kinda outdated, because of the model that i was talking about.
I feel your pain . I broke My elbow pretty bad. 1.5 inches separation. I have a large plate with 7 screws holding it all together. Hope all is well now for you. I only got 80% of movement back. Keep riding till you can't. LOL.
damn....hope ur better man. ur a great rider. u got talent. srry i saw this vid 2 yrs after it happened. i didn't know about utoob till the end of 2011. i know sad.
It's sucks when you break your femur. I broke mine in 5 places and had the same rod installed and my left foot broke it in over 50 places all at the same time. Get well soon.
wow man it just goes to show us yorkshire lads are tuff nuts ayee keep on going chris just be carefull hope u get better soon lad i shit my self when you just shouted ambulance oh mand get well soon
I think you are right when you say that you could have come off alot worse and with the hair raising things I have witnessed you do first hand back when I was still a school kid you done well too only have had one really bad accident just shows how good you are as I used to be hurting myself day in day out when I used to try live upto some of the crazy shit you do I think I'd have prob killed myself if I'd have carried on and can't wait to see what you get upto for GT cycles as I'm sure alot of people will be.
(3)sorry i have a lot of concerns,... as you can see... its my first time to own a bike. i really love it. looking forward for your answer! take care master!
(2)maybe you can make a video... using Mongoose khyber elite. i saw one already.. with the blue coloured one.. maybe you can ride on some of the models... or boot'r if you may.. i was also checking mongoose website... and i noticed that khyber elite is not available. the one i have is a black colored frame.. with gold decals. with a mixture of some white. then when i check others... it comes in black and white.
Chris, Watched this three times and cannot get over your style and toughness. I could use some friends like you. Looking forward to more of your inspiring work. Very best to you. John
"you alright chris?"
"AMBULANCE"
Doing Yorkshire and England proud. Keep on going Chris :)
Man you are a legend! You and Danny inspired me to ride 4life.
Sorry this happened, and happy you weren't killed. But the way you casually call up "Ambulance" cracked me up. Yorkshire men are made of strong stuff.
A brutal reminder the cost of becoming accomplished. Brilliant skills Chris, and I can't get enough of watching you on the bike.
Jeez, didn’t realised how purple your right arm was watching this years later.
Crazy video dude! I miss seeing your riding!

TheDave000 as an American I’m pissed about our situation. My sister died because of it.
Nothing is "free" and yes, you are quite the industrial giants and freedom fighters of our time. =-P
Free backup from mongoose?
Lightning never strikes twice they say.....you are The Man
I wish you a speedy recovery!!! Cant wait to see more videos from you in the near future! My friends an I here in SO CAL are pulling for you man!!!!
Seriously, did you just say that? THIS IS THE LEGEND. Chris is older than danny and a many times trials world champion, I'd tell you that he inspired danny but someone luckily has already told you that.
My 6 year old is wondering if you are dead...??? He is worried. Watching your videos is what we do on a rainy day. Thanks!! I hope you are not dead!
I hope you get well soon and come back Chris

Ambulance!!
sad end,right?
hello dearest love by the appleseed cast
not every day you get to watch a man fall off a cliff is it? Hope you get fixed soon and get back on the bike.
how can you dislike this video!!
i got one word of advice for these guys....DO NOT DO IT.....it will come back to haunt you when youre older.
4:22 oh mein gott!!
哇塞，恐怖😱，好坚强
was that in ilkley
looked like it yeh but can't be shure
Definately looks like cow and calf to me, if your from that way there's a few decent quarries Baildon way, and up above keighley that are good fun
3:30 back D son!
You will recover, i would have the hardware removed later on tho. Then do another recovery. Then train and strengthen.
warning: explosion at 2:07
Is that a 26' trials mountainbike?
26 inch dirt jumper/modded for trials
next Danny Macaskill
HOLY SHITT 4:21
Talented but crazy.
😳
You only needed a rope hidden between the rocks to grab
I tried to count to see if I can at least do 1 of his tricks...........NOT!
How old are you Chris Akrigg ?
What model bike is that?
You silly sausage.
why do all the best bike riders have british/scottish/australian accents. Danny mac, Chris akr, and Gee atherton.
Funny how the jump istelf had nothing to do with the injury.
do you custom level your mic?
Song?
I can’t work out if your about 25 or 35
Thanks doctor obvious. What I meant is why are they all from those places. Why aren't there any from India, or China, or America.
1:43 I can do tha... Nope
