      I'd say it's lucky, This is a really dangerous sport. Though this was noting especially difficult, the increases in mountain bikes has just caused people to do more extreme things. IOW, safety is a receding horizon because people will always push the envelope.

    At least they took x-rays and found it. When I broke my leg, the urgent care doctor didn't want to do x-rays because he was convinced it was just a bad hematoma. After two weeks, I was still in major pain and my dad had a friend was a radiologist do some x-rays. Sure enough, leg was broken.

    I feel your pain, bro! Yesterday I was bombing a high school race track. There was a HUGE ditch that was part of the trail (about 10 feet deep!) I thought there was gonna be a ramp down, but there wasn't. It was a sheer drop-off that you could clean if you were ready for it. Me, who sucks at mountain biking, flew off of it, slammed my chin into my handlebars, sprained my left wrist REALLY BAD. My bike was fine, but it doesn't matter, since I have to wear a huge splint on it for a week.

    You're lucky man.. A few years back I went over the 'bars at 35mph. My right wrist was bent back an additional 45° from 90! I broke 2 carpals and tore all the ligaments between the carpals! I underwent a 5.5hr surgery and spent 4 months in a cast that went up to bicep. Now I have about 45° of flex in my right wrist as opposed to a full 180° like a normal human. The good thing, I never had any pain post-op, but now, I feel changes in barometric pressure. Take care bud and hope you have a speedy recovery.

    The similar thing happened to me year and half ago. Went to local hike trail which I use for cross country and the day went amazing until that same injury. Went over the bars just to land on my left thumb. Didn't hurt much, I really don't know why, but I remained brave during the recovery and now I'm happy because I went through that, because it gained me experience and now I ride more freely but also more carefully. Get well soon Seth, can't wait to see you again on bike!

    Take care Seth, take it slow and hope you don't have further complications. Fractured my radius snowboarding a couple of years ago, the crack split the bone laterally at the wrist. Took 6 months with PT yo get the strength and flexibility back. Three months ago during a cyclocross race, I slid out and broke my leg. Had a spiral fracture of my tibia and fibula in my lower leg. Had to have surgery and plates put in. But having nerve damage and dealing with foot pain, numbness, swelling and discoloration have kept me nearly bedridden since with what appears to be at least another month, if i'm lucky, before I'm able to try to ride around the block. It might be hard to stay off the bike but don't do anything that will mess you up for the rest of your life. Best of Luck

    Heal up soon Seth. Maybe some vids of Drama? I could watch a whole lot of him doing nothing.

    Hi,
    Writing the comment with my left hand, just broken my right wrist yesterday.
    I've seen you post two weeks ago and just thought "Wow it's tough! This is not a worse injury that could happen, but your disappointing to be off rides touched my heart. Now I feeling the same thing, just stupid crash and have to be out my new :( bike 3-4 months, also doctor said I have to do a surgery, that do the things more complicated.
    I'm 41, have family include two kids, riding 12 years, and I even can't explain how much I love to ride my bike...
    Now I'm a slightly in depression to be off rides. The injury affected not just my riding, but also my family, and my job (although I'm working in a small company).
    So I'm sitting here and thinking what will happen after my healing. Could be I able to ride same trails with same confidence to not get hurt again, even though I know the injuries it's a part of the game. It's tough... and I hope everything will be fine and in the end.
    Wish you heal up soon, be strong, and keep making videos for us :).
    P.S. I have a new account and just subscribed to your channel again ;)

    Sorry to hear about the injury. Better a break than a tear of some kind though. Those take forever to heal from.

    Sorry to hear about your break but give it time and your recovery will fly by. I fractured my ankle skimboarding several years ago and had to take about 4 months off; since I was on crutches I had to rely on alot of delivery pizza. By stoke level was so high by the end of my recovery that I never even missed a beat from those few months of no-riding.
