How I Shattered My Femur
It was Fathers day weekend, a beautiful day at Dogwoood Mx park. There was a 120 foot uphill triple. I was jumping it all day. Then it came time to go. I wanted to hit it one last time. Well I came around the inside line, 3rd gear tapped... Ended up making it 118 feet. ... NOT GOOD. I landed on my frame. Which then the bike came over and basically drove me in the ground. I split fractured my femur, and drove that bone 8 inches up the side of my leg. I instantly knew something was wrong. I could not move my ankle, but every time I tried it felt like a bag of corn flakes were in my leg. So we went 120mph to the hospital. They put me in surgery right away, I told them I had no pain. Which I didn`t so they thought I was in shock. They said that the surgery would only take 35mins, it took 5 and a half hours.
