  • how can you watch this without fighting back tears?...terrible, terrible loss

  • @chrisxcore19 I always well up with tears watching this one, as well as others. Some of the tears are sad tears for what happened at the end, but most are happy tears because their love happened in the first place. :)

    All Night Doctors

    by Bush

  • Another 12 people with no heart! RIP Sarah!

  • Love you sarah, may you rest in peace :)

  • Fate...it is so cruel...You are truly an inspiration to all of us Sarah...RIP

  • We just lost a beautiful person who has never forgotten where she came from. On the slopes she was simply the best. Off the slopes she treated everyone as though they were her friend, including her fans. The world has just lost a legend, she was only getting started. God Bless Sarah, Rory and their family. She was taken from us way too soon. This really hurts!

  • I still ride for Sarah. RIP

  • A beautiful and talented woman....taken too quickly from this world...may she rest in peace.

  • RIP SARAH

  • Sarah you are my idol <3

  • nooooo!!!! I still can't believe she's gone.  I am so sad :( Oh, how I loved watching this girl live, what an absolute inspiration. This is such a shattering loss. I've been a huge Bushy fan for years and was so stoked when the two of them married. They were perfect together, they were freeskiing's royalty. She will never be replaced, or forgotten. RIP Sarah Burke, your spirit lives on! Say hi to CR and Shane for us. We will miss you dearly

  • rip

  • @legrospete esl?

  • @legrospete esl?

  • Im soo bummed. Our little town is mourning this tragic loss. love u sarah and bushy. One Love from the Callaghan Valley

  • They were so in love!! You can tell he just thought the world of her, you can see it in his eyes!! My condolences to her family and husband. Terribly sad!! RIP Sarah!!

  • Rest In Peace, Sarah.

  • “It’s what our lives are, being on the hill and there’s a reason for that, it’s amazing, it’s where we met, where we live, …. And hopefully where we die” :(

  • rest in peace brave woman

  • :(

  • It’s not about the medals! It’s about the nervous build up standing at the top, the run in, then hitting the lip and that single moment when you’re in the air spinning and world slows down. You then spot your landing, land, ride away and it’s over, it’s death defying and you’ve just defied it. Then everyone tells you how great you are and hands out medals but you are still feeling the buzz and it doesn’t matter. Sarah knew that feeling and so truly lived!

  • My heart goes out to Rory.

  • OMG Rory need a lot of strenght. RIP Sarah from Chile

  • @legrospete ..make your point to persons you might influence,which most likely not make an effect here.not the place or time:love overcomes the love of power. no one would wish that on you personally, to lose a loved one- no matter how upset your post makes them feel.

  • Rest in Paradise Sarah!

  • R.I.P sarah!!!!!! You made woman in the skiing world!!!!!! so sad

  • Has her sponsor Monster Energy offered anything up?

  • Very sad loss but I hate to broach the subject because life is more valuable than money (I will donate). But don't athletes traveling to the US have travel insurance to cover medical costs?

  • @63lozza Insurance doesn't cover everything...

  • @Briggie07 That is the unfortunate thing..people can say what they like about the Canadian system but you would never end up with hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical expenses. Anyway, enough money was raised to cover costs according to the website, so that is great!

  • Wtf kind of ass backward medical system charges a family half a million dollars in wake of their loved ones death. God forbid that an accident like this happens but then the rest of the family has to pay out their ass for the rest of their life because of it?? Absolutely ridiculous!!

    American medical system=Seriously Effed.

  • My thoughts and prayers are sent to Mrs. Burke's family and to her husband Rory. To the greatest female skier in the industry.

  • An incredibly beautiful female athlete & with an even more beautiful and gentle heart. May her soul be granted eternal rest & her husband and family find true comfort in their unimaginable loss. And she will live on through her final request ~ that her organs & tissue be donated to those in need. Rest In True Peace Always!

  • Too sad! What a sweet lovely young lady and a elite athlete, pityingly passed too young!

  • SERIOUSLY, how many more examples do we need of why not to engage in risky activities? WHY on earth is she doing a flat spin 540....huh?? Such a tragic death, my sincere condolences to her husband.

  • RIP Sarah Burke and may your husband find the strength to go on.

  • Rest in Peace <3

  • @BigBagsForRent2 You are an asshole.

  • @BigBagsForRent2 how do u feel now?

  • @ranitamia6 Well I'm just on break from work so I'm feeling a bit hungry. Why do you ask?

  • @BigBagsForRent2 Accidents are not gender specific you idiot. There was just a male before her accident that crashed and suffered a tramatic brain injury.

  • @chloegirl1005 That sucks. Tramatic brain injury is certainly a horrible thing. Just about the only thing worse is dying lol.

  • @BigBagsForRent2 A man suffered a similar injury in the same general area a couple years back you dimwit. Injuries aren't gender specific. How do you feel when you insult the death of a truly unforgettable woman like this?

  • @cuband8 How do I feel? Well I dont know her, so what do I care about her?

  • @BigBagsForRent2 It does not matter whether you knew her or not, you are insulting her and the way that she died. Grow the fuck up. It's a terrible thing when a person like Sarah dies while people like you are left in the world. Maybe it's because you are too cowardly to leave your computer chair

  • @BigBagsForRent2

    you're scum and if I saw you I would kick your sorry ass to hell.

  • @freddy5861 Yeah I doubt that bro. I'm almost positive I'm bigger than you and can pack a harder punch. But you could sure try.

  • @BigBagsForRent2 Hey bro - I'm positive you're a fat fuck, so naturally you're bigger than me. Keep your ignorant comments to yourself, especially on a forum like this where you should be leaving condolences for Sarah instead of making your childish comments. You're not good enough to lick dog shit off her shoes.

  • @freddy5861 lol I go to the gym every day, bud. Keep projecting tho you fat fuck.

  • @BigBagsForRent2 You are on fucking youtube, telling people that you are bigger than them and that you can punch harder than them, AFTER YOU insulted a person and the way she died. God damn you are more pathetic than I thought!

  • @cuband8 Well I guess you have 2 options. 1) you can cry about it or 2) you can get on your knees and kiss my bum bum!

  • @BigBagsForRent2 show some respect i'm done with you. have fun trolling someone else you moron

  • @cuband8 Sweet bro.. seeya!

  • @cuband8 you are probably yelling at a 10 year old. Agree with you 1,000% - just saying. Don't even give him the time of day. Karma is a bitch and he's got credit on the Karma card. Words are powerful.

  • Rest in Peace Sarah :'(

  • she was a great skier and beautiful woman.. i'll miss her

  • Sarah Burke is a role model for skiers and snow boarders everywhere. She is going to be missed  by so many! She was fearless and beautiful!

  • R.I.P Sarah Burke =(

  • rest in peace beautifull sarah burke and bless her family

  • Rest in peace Sarah <3

  • Just donated $20. Give a little, you won't miss it, but it will make the pain and grief a little less crushing under the medical bills for the family.

  • RIP Sarah <3 you where truly an inspiration to men and woman skiers and men and women atheletes alike...

  • <3 RIP

  • :(

  • RIP

  • This is such a beautiful union made sad by Rory's loss.

  • my heart just broke!

  • What a terrible tragedy. My heart goes out to her family and friends. A great loss for them, Canada, the entire ski community and the world. Rest in Pease Sarah. :*(

  • Heartbreaking to watch. My thoughts are with you Rory. RIP Sarah

  • Huge loss to her family, the sport of skiing and all of Canada. She had the courage and determination to pursue her dreams and sadly paid the ultimate price. Such a tragedy. Sincere sympathy to her husband, family and friends.

  • Their love looked amazing. one of a kind, Sorry for your loss Rory

  • Rest in peace Sarah... You will be remembered in 2014...

  • R.i.P. Sarah! A lot of strength to you, Rory!

  • Heartbreaking but I am glad they were able to spend a year or so as a married couple.. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Rory and the family..

  • Huge loss to the skiing community, RIP Sarah!

  • Huge tragedy. Hard to watch.

  • @twentysack20 yeah, but she was hospitalized in the States, so there are medical bills.

    RIP Sarah Burke. You were an inspiration to me.

  • A lot of people go their entire lives without finding something they love, after watching this video it would seem that Sarah was lucky enough to have that love twice.

  • @TheChallenger2011 - Actually a lot of people do find what they love, but it's rare to get to do what you love for a living.

    I don't follow the X Games, so to be honest, I hadn't even heard of her...but she was really pretty. Also I have to say, that is a dangerous sport.

  • Great love story! Sarah was a great example of a person who knew joy pursuing her dreams! RIP Sarah! Thanks for your exmaple!

  • I doubt he'll ever get over her, they are just so right together. Watching this video will tear him apart, but at the same time it shows how much happiness they shared together. Agree with comments about the look she gives him at 4.37, thats true love. One of the saddest things i think i'll have ever watched in my life.

  • her smile is so beautiful and it seems like she lived a great, fulfilling life before and after she met her husband. makes me cry :(

  • @healaryclenton male skiers have never died? wow!

  • winningest? Is that a word!?

  • @Cptnc Yes

  • cmon guys and girls help her family pay the 550 000 dollars in medical bills, they have lost their daughter they don't need to lose their home and things too.

  • @21centurynostradamus She's Canadian... what medical bills.

  • @RayCar805 All NIght Doctor's by Bush @gavinrossdale So beautiful, but so sad

  • Watched this vid last night, heartbreaking. I'm not familiar with skiing, but the moto racing world lost a similar shining light of our sport last season, Marco Simoncelli, and it's tough for everyone, from the athletes to the fans to get over. Peace to her husband, family and fans. They seem like one of those two peas in a pod-type couples, I can't even imagine how he feels, especially when you see them together. Her statement at 4:29 is heartbraking, it's once in a lifetime to have that. RIP

  • RIP Sarah  God bless

  • Ugh, my heart just broke for Rory... I couldn't imagine that kind of loss, and I hope I never have to!! RIP, Sarah.

  • Rest in peace, Champion!

  • Rest In Peace...another legend in heaven :(

  • Honestly, the kind of blatant disrespect a few of you have for a human life gone too soon, its a pity your waste of a life wasn't able to be exchanged for hers, clearly you all aren't worth it however, so kindly leave and allow those who mourn to mourn in peace

  • RIP

  • R.I.P. Sarah <3

  • II’m sure you will have lot of fun skiing great clouds in heaven too, you’ve had a great life on hearth, but the best is about to come, rest in peace Sarah

  • This is really painful to watch, they were so completely in love. Life can be twisted sometimes.

  • rip

  • rest in peace, Sarah.

  • R.I.P and legend SARAH :((

  • omg this is so heartbreaking :'(

  • @DrBukcake youre sick in the head. Go get some help.

  • Hey Sarah ... you pushed female free-skiing to a new level ... we miss your shiny, happy personality and of course your sexy cuteness - you will always remain in the heart of all freeskiers and many many others ... dont forget to say hi to Shane ... we miss you all !!

    Warmest condolences from Europe to Rory, the family and close friends (you had the honour to share your time and love with her)... R.I.P Sarah, you r an everlasting star in the freeski-sky !!

  • This is so sad, she was so beautiful, brave and young! Condolences to her family and friends.

  • That's true....she died doing what she loved... that is the dream! R.I.P. and God bless her family. Hold on......

  • oh god, I didn't even really know who she was before her accident... what a perfect couple. She's skiing in the highest mountains right now....

  • Very sad.... such a great athlete full of life and bright future with loving husband.

  • She died doing what she loved (at 0:43). You will be missed.

  • @DrBukcake hope you'll be the 2nd!

  • So sad and so painful ... RIP Sarah ...

  • So Sad...Gotta Be So Hard For Rory!!

  • Watchin this was so painful. I pray for her husband and her family. RIP Sarah Burke.

  • Comment removed

  • R.I.P Sarah :(

  • RIP (Rest in "Piste") A PISTE is a marked ski run or path down a mountain for snow skiing... FYI

  • she lived a great life, I feel bad for her husband and loved ones. I'd be grateful to live a life half as fulfilling as hers. A great athlete and hero to many aspiring young skiers.

  • I never really knew who sarah burke was until i heard a news story about her crashing. After surfing the net, reading about her, watching videos of her (even saw a montage of her wedding), I am DEEPLY saddened by her passing. That is what is weird to me, especially since i never even heard of her before, then i realized its because the little i learned about her in like 2 days, was enough to tell how beautiful of a person she was both inside and out. she died chasing her biggest dream. so sad

  • R.I.P Sarah

  • Sat through "Winter" film at GoPro X Dance film festival in SLC on Saturday where the film was featured - hard hold back the tears as you watched - seeing how incredibly beautiful and fun she was - and how great she and Rory were together. There is nothing good in death other than wishing you had spent more time with them. Be well SB. Be well.

  • Who would have guessed that so many people would fail to point out such easily identifiable logical fallacies like, equivocation. straw man arguments, ad hominem attacks and the like?

    Guess they deserve to lose time out of their day arguing about a variety of different things other than the thing they think they're arguing about.

    Who knew that an ubermensch would get such joy out of arguing in such an infantile way while pissing all over the basic tenets of argument?

  • At 4:37 to have someone look at you like that and then to lose it is something a man will probably never get over; you move on at some point but you never forget. Painful to watch...

  • 0:44 premonition. 

  • RIP Sarah!!

  • My deepest sympathies go out to Rory and Sarah's family and friends. What am amazing couple!

    I will be watching the 2014 Olympics with more even more Canadian pride because of Sarah's efforts!

  • This breaks my heart. Just an old redneck boy from TX. But saw her on TV from time to time and she made me smile. And she was so talented and gutsy. A stunning unique beauty has gone ahead for reasons only known to her and God. Rest in Peace pretty girl.

  • R.I.P Sarah... ㅜㅜ

  • Such a cute couple, R.I.P Sarah :( so sad you had to die this young. You were a great role model!

  • @Pizuzuzimmer The inspiration is in that she lived her life the way she wanted to. You don't have to understand that, but why take it away from someone else? Live your life.

  • @Pizuzuzimmer What a irrational comparison. You obviously are trying to hard to appear like you're actually intelligent. It is clear by your inability to see the difference between this girl and a serial killer that you lack basic analytic skills that a 9 year old has. Clearly, this girl never sought to hurt anyone or even herself. Yeah it happened, but I am pretty sure this was not her intention. Stop being an idiot.

  • @Pizuzuzimmer omg the imbecile is back! jeez

  • Oh my gosh how sad.

  • am i the only one who can't stop crying right now?

  • I didnt know her. I live in a ski community in ont. this made me tear up. For her and her husband and family. But she had more shining moments as a skier in 29 years then I will ever have as a 34 year old framer. U were beautiful and talented. And u will b missed

  • What a huge loss, my condolences to her loved ones.
