I think he/she was out after the first impact. Looks like Moab to me.

Saw that yesterday, after reading the article he is very lucky to get out with so little as far as injuries go. This guy is lucky but he will be back at it I'm sure

 

[sixstringsteve]

that makes me sick. What were his injuries?

 

[TJDukit]

"Compression Fracture of the T12 Vertebra, 5 stitches to the eye, 6 stitches to the chin, severely sprained Back, wrist and hand. multiple bruised areas."

 

[sixstringsteve]

kinda looks like potash rd to me.

 

[blznnp]

that sucks, but he did make a video about it with the editing and all so he must not feel to bad about it now.

crazy lucky to just have that, even though it would all still suck, could have been so much worse

Could someone post a link? It must be imbedded, because it doesnt show up on my phone.

Where did you see an article?

 

[mesha]

for some reason it didnt seem gross to me until the hand started flopping around.

The slow motion didnt seem nearly as bad as the regular speed.

The blurb I read was on Vimeo I believe, linked from FB but I can't be too sure.

Seems pretty elegant in slow mo. Glad she is alive

Here's an actual news article though it seems they just quote the blip from Vimeo

This is from the bottom of that article. GRAPHIC!! HARSH language.

I cant believe how calm he is about his leg.

[TJDukit]

Wow that makes it look worse than what the little blip said.

 

[Rot Box]

Um...

Wonder when it happened. We saw a bunch of base jumpers in Moab over thanksgiving.

 

[jeeper]

These are separate accidents.. The first guy lands right near the road, the broken leg dude is high up in the rocks.

 

[jeep-N-montero]

Yeah, the broken leg guy is from about a month before this other incident, both are not too bright but lucky to be alive.
