Andy thats awesome, i'll have to remember to come out next time your riding. Bet from now on everyone with the cameras will be behind you.
Good entrance into the Stack of the Year award, blood, stitches, A&E, Photos. All that was needed to guarantee the trophy was a broken bone, so you must try harder next time

crispy bacon: This was me a few hours later after a visit to A&E
didn't know they offered cocaine on the NHS
So it's not just me who thinks he looks pilled up....
Ian I promise to try harder next time, maybe lose a couple of teeth. 
Guaranteed to happen when Gav`s camera is out..... 
a bit wet now...
That downhill one is outstanding..... 
I need to look through my old pics, I have an ace one of me from 89, it'll **** those above up the ****.
an old one at Bedgebury. Look to the left of the bridge
Helping Sue out of the stream
It was November, the water was cold and she was fully submerged hence the look of shock on her face (but Gary on the right seemed to find it funny)
another blast from the past for those of you who remember 'Rat boy', misjudging the depth of a puddle and getting fully submerged after going head OTB
Keep em coming
I'm scabbing up nicely(picture taken by my concerned wife)
Expertly captured by simonfbarnes.
The aftermath (lost count of how many stitches although I was amazingly lucky to have no real scarring and not to break my neck/teeth etc)
Ooops sorry wrong thread!
May I dedicate it to all of you?

Someone must know this guy...
SOme crackers on here... Stoney, I always wondered what our FB profile pic was of... lol
Crazy legs I think I speak for a lot of people when I say, do that again, please!
On a serious note, when I first started biking back in the day I would go along at a good speed then jam the front brake on. I would then learn to jump over the bars onto my feet and also how to land without injuring myself.
It might not be a bad idea to learn how to do that, get an old bike not a new one and practice jumping over the bars, sound stupid but it is a skill that everyone should have, as sooner or later chances are we are all going over the bars
Some of us will have our heads go one way and our bodies the other while we attempt to plant our faces into the ground, some of us will not That said if I do I will come back and show everyone the picture!
TSY, that's not the best jump I've ever seen, but it does have a certain class.
It could have been so much worse!

50 stitches after getting up close and personal with Edale Tarmac.
This pic is very pathetic compared to the other pics posted on here, I LOLed lots at them^, so thanks for that you people. This is old skool over the bars tho 1996, I think in a peat bog somewhere in the Yorkshire Dales
@raggatip, you like it crispy then.
great. I already mince about with shin pads on. Now I need a full face after seeing those 
And even roadies can get it wrong,
Can't find the original, but here is one that my friend mocked up after stacking it on a loose corner last year and double breaking my nose:
And a couple of days later:
Incredibly it actually straightened my nose from a previous break.

Me. I could almost breathe through my new extra nostril caused by my m-frames going into my nose after landing on a small tree stump, oh and bust ribs

I did this on the Quantocks in Triscombe last year, also fractured my elbow which i didn't realize until i reluctantly went to A&E the day after. Still managed 12 miles back to the car afterwards though
My helmet didn't look much better either!
Over the bars in Spain.
Concussion and a broken collarbone.
Oh... go awn then, over the bars onto sharp dolerite (chin hanging off) in Tasmania in 2009:
Patched up in A+E, the aftermath...

Day after pic, one tooth knocked clean out, one broken at the root and still in place, bitten through bottom lip, front wheel wash out and face plant in to a root sticking out the bank at the top of pepsi max in the wyre, 5 years on and the teeth marks are still in the root, there is also a deer walking round the forest with a dashing smile 
Lol @ Mark.
Slightly broken nose!
Week after nose job.
Pedro's sympathetic text pic.
SPOOOON!!!!!
I hope you don't mind John, I stuck that lovely clip on the Switchbacks Facebook page.
Here's mine from about 6 months ago, riding home from work & managed to catch my bars in a mesh fence...
flamejob - no problem, we spent literally hours bawling our eyes out watching that clip the following evening.
None of you were any oil paintings anyway, so no loss to the world.

Not me, but some guy we were following down the White's trail today.
I believe his bike ended up 20 foot futher on down the bank, he didn't look too bad/damaged back at the trail centre.
OI JON I WAS ABOUT TO POST THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
