  • your leg looks just like my leg does after my bike accident in 2007. just posted a video response

  • would all that have happened if he was wearing racing leather? besides the broken bones

  • your lucky to be alive! Hope your back riding.

  • Man Im sorry May God Be with you!!

  • Oh man! Du hast echt Glück gehabt! Ich hoffe bei dir ist wieder alles ok und deinem Bein geht's wieder gut. Das wünsche ich echt keinem. Hing selbst mal in der Leitplanke, aber bei mir blieb es zum Glück *klopf*klopf*klopf* "nur" bei ner Prellung meiner linken Seite und einem Totalschaden am Motorrad. Aber scheiss auf die Maschine, solange dir "nicht mehr" passiert ist!

    Gute Besserung! Grüße aus Hessen.

  • motorbiking is great if u know n can ride the best way..but sometimes we do mistake..hope this will be ur once in lifetime mistake..

    GET WELL SOON!

  • hmm.i think biking is such a adrenaline, but what i'm whatching such a videos, i start to fear this things..

  • how is your leg at this time?

  • my tibia is still not perfectly healthy, it´s still a little bit broken. in april i have another x-ray in the hospital and there we will see if it´s ok. if it´s not i will have another surgery again :(

  • Hope you don't need that surgery...

  • omg man were you riding in your pants??????

  • i was wearing a dainese leather suit. this 'ripped-off skin' was made by the doctors cause it was too damaged. This injurie is called 'compartment syndrome' in english i think

  • fast*

  • man thats insane how long were u sliding for and how was were u going

    ur lucky to be alive

  • i was sliding for a couple of metres right into the rail guard. My leather suit saved a lot other injuries

  • wow you're very lucky i had an accident with my bike in 2006 after 9 months in a hospital and with 7 sergeries in my stomach and 2 on my legs i'm still wayting my body to make new bones to make another 2 sergeries,I can't believe that you still love motorbikes that lesson hadn't learned you anything...?

  • WOW what an accident. Hope you ok now. I came off my bike this year and only snapped my thumb bone, and that hurt like hell. You must have been in pain. Will you still ride?

  • i take it you got thrown over the gaurd rail???

  • Thankfully i didn´t get thrown over the guard rail. Behind the guard rail and the little forrest there is a big canyon. I wouldn´t be alive if i would have been thrown over the guard rail...

  • OMFG!! Whata fuck is that gray thing? :O

  • That gray thing is the skin which they took off from the left femoral. They doctors had to do this cause the skin on the lower leg was 'dead'.

    Now it looks a lot more nice but still you can see it of course very good that this isn´t the original skin

  • hard accident....respect to the driver!looked horrible...but nice video to show the danger of driving bikes

  • WoW man, this is a horror crash...

  • nice song lol evanscence bring me to life

  • fatal accident....

  • Holy christ that is gnarly. I can't believe how busted out the guardrail anchors were from the cement. Tearing up the open road is a great way to raise some pulses, but also a great way to get a toe tag. Glad to see you made it. I like the Suzuki stickers on your crutches.

  • omg...a terrible accident,respect for this person!!! drive carefully in the future

  • Sorry for the guy?!?! Was he wearing full leather suit?!?!? no?!?! oh ok.... Jeans, t-shirt and nike shoes i bet.... idiot!!!

  • No, sorry. I was wearing a dainese leather suit, a arai helmet, alpinestars racing gloves and motorcycle boots. this 'ripped-off' skin was made by the doctors, not by the accident itself...

  • ok man. sorry my reaction but i hate people in t-shirt and no leather on superbikes... but next time go to a race track... you just have track and if you fall you'll find just grass and sand... open road is too dangerous and with gard rail even worst... i ride a GSXR600 K6 every day to work and fast only on a track. try it on a trackday or something. you will like it =) Good luck!

  • good luck mate next time and drive safely.

  • Wowe, that wuz brutal! Glad u made it though, it was bad..but coulda been worse. My friend dumped his ninja 1200 and broke both his legs and is now getting around good and is riding the same bike now (his accident was less than a year ago). Hope u get to ride again...and not like u can prevent everything, but be a lil more careful maybe! Good luck to you guys, shred pavement and dirt..not urselves. see yah on youtube.

  • kinda looks like a designer tattoo now - some guys would pay lotsa money for their leg to look like that. BONUS!! more importantly, how's the bike??

  • omfg!! :o

    His leg was terrible

  • what is the name of first song?

  • pleace,sorry i get it. only respect for this person!

  • damn i hate those fucking staples, dont worry you will be back to pushing your luck in no time at all, its funny how when your back on the bike you seem to forget all the pain youve been through ....

  • =O what the hell!!!

  • everi fink is ok live man !!!

  • Sorry to see your injuries were this extreme. I hope you can ride again soon.

  • cool hayabusa. happy for u, mean ur lucky coz you didnt die only crushed leg. :(

  • I came on youtube and searched for gsxr crashes because i felt like I have been pushing the limit on my gixxer,this video was exactly what I needed to slow me down a little.

    I hope you get back full health and don't get to post another crash aftermath.

  • ok. i changed my mind about buying a bike...

  • oh :s ure leg look very very terrible

  • Damn dude.. i bet you learned a lesson if nothing else.

  • Hey you fully recoverd yet?? i now how you feel i have part of my arse grafted to my right ankel, i high sided at Brand Hatch 4 years ago and my leg got traped in the rear wheel of a duke 996 but all is well now and have just started trackdays. hope it all gose well for you and hope you still ride. jon No.76

  • Hi Jon!

    I´m not fully recovered yet. next week the doctor will make another checkup. And there we will see if everything is ok. But if the broken bones didn´t adnate correctly, i will have another surgery again. i´ll write a new comment next week when i know what´s going on.

    Tom #18

  • Btw, this guy prolly had shorts on, and if are freaked out about this video, think about how stupid this dipshit is when you ride on a fucken mountain side.

  • sorry, but i was wearing a dainese leather suit. the knee may look like i was wearing shorts, but this crappy skin isn´t from sliding on the street

  • You only live once, ride people, don't be pussies and ride a fucken motorcycle.

  • hard reality behind the fun ride!!!

  • Servus Super Video das beste das ich bis jetzt gesehen hab, Ich hatte auch schon einige unfälle aber so einen schlimmen noch nie!!! respekt und wünsche gute Besserung Gruss aus der Schweiz. Suzuki vor ever

  • Great video!

  • Man!!! You're lucky you didn't lose that leg!!!!

  • nice video but i wanted to see you crash thats why i searched it and watched it!

  • sorry for that. have no pictures / movie about the accident itself

  • did you get back on a bike?

  • yes. i´m driving again. but for sure alot more slower. but i´m really happy that i can drive!

  • always get back on its the only way!

  • ...My frend allways telling me ,why u are so carefull in curves? And i keep saying that i dont trust the tires and nieder the road.U man good luck and dont give up its our life,and one more thing shit hapens to anyone bay Honza

  • I was thinkin what to say,i biker to i got cbr 1000rr repsol edition 07,just to let u know but not importante i lost my grip too few times but allways lucky i gues,i dont now in witch country that hapend(i gues germeny) but the doctors did excelent job (u too of course)i've never seen something like this before,im just happy that u where lucky on them...

  • the accident happened in south tirol. but the surgery was in innsbruck (tirol). it´s one of the world´s top hospitals. they really did an excellent job. that´s true. whish you a lot nice trips with your beautiful repsol blade

  • Servuso Tom, Deine Botschaft ist angekommen..das beste von YouTube allermall. Mensch pass auf Di das naechste mall o und die beste Besserung wuensche ich Dir. Gruss.

  • omg! after that i would not even want to see another motorcycle.

  • Servas Tom,

    lg from the better part of lä.

  • FUCK THAT EMO ROCK SHIT. Video is still cool.

  • Hi Tom,

    ich wünsche Dir alles gute und hoffe, daß es Dir gut geht.

    Wenn Du mit dem Video eine Botschaft rüberbringen wolltest, ist es Dir gelungen.

    Hut ab und eine Verbeugung von mir.

  • wow, guys look cool riding fast... That little " not me" light in your head will get you killed. Or in Tom's case crippled.

  • all i can say is this , thank god ur alive, i had been in accidents like that 2, totaled 2 06 gsxr 1000, and been in hospital, but nothing compared to you. i give u props . and go with ur heart , and i know its tellin u 2 ride again. cuz i will ride till the day i die.

    and im only 19.

  • This singer is so fucking mediocre. Who is she?

  • She is Amy Lynn Lee, now Amy Lynn Hartzler from Evanescence.

  • Props to you, excellent video.

    I too have been in a bike crash, had to put a steel pin through my shoulder, so I kinda understand what happened to you.

    Let me ask you: where is the intro video from? What kind of street race is that? Got any links/more videos? Thanks in advance, hope you get well soon.

  • Hi!

    That street race at the beginning is the "Tourist Trophy (TT) Isle of man" race. Look at the website: iomttcom

    There is also a second popular street race called "northwest 200". Look here at youtube for more video´s on the isle of man or the northwest 200, there are many ;-)

    greetings Tom

  • den anfang vom video finde ich ausgezeichnet. zum unfall: stimme zu, sowas kann passieren, also immer vorsichtig fahren und alles gute für die zukunft

    derbester

  • yes its a good video...remember they bike guy's are good kidney donador's

  • Well done making that film. I hope it reminds some people what you risk every time you go out on your bike. I broke my neck in a bike accident back in November 2000. Fortunately it was what they call a stable fracture, and I suffered no paralysis. I had that accident at about 11mph (car pulled u-turn in front of me.)

    I wish you a full and speedy recovery. Ride safe, and try to keep it rubber side down.

    Elliot.

  • so inspiring

  • f*ck me man hope every thing goes well

  • You o.k NOW?

  • FCK YOU DRIFTED WITH THE BIKE, PRO @_@

  • Wow...pretty bad carnage on your leg. Just be thankful your leg even works. heh. Good luck with the doc.

  • Thank you guy´s for all your good words. That´s really nice and helps me a lot handle my crash and the injuries! Thanks a lot! in 3 months i have to go to the hospital again to have a look at my knee. i´ll tell you guys what the doctor´s said. c u

  • Dude there is noo!! words in the worldd!! that can explain how insanly tough you are for pulling trough that you my hero man Props!!!

  • Man...i can't iven imagine hou mutch did it hurts...

    Hope u get better;)

    Remember...bikes r cool but cars r more safe.

  • i crashed on my 50cc scooter and hurt myself not bad but it shook me up a bit. that l teach me to go 50mph down through dodgey bak lanes :P hope u get better tom that looks really bad :/

  • good luck on the road 2 recovery, and hope you're back riding again soon

  • Can sum1 send me what the song is?

  • it´s "in the end" from "linkin park"

  • Good on ya mate making and posting this video diary of your accident. I had a 70mph crash on the motorway here in the UK, had all my leathers on despite it being a hot day as a result I only suffered a badly grazed knee and some minor bruising. my Kawasaki ZX6 came off worse than me.. I see these idiots riding in shorts and Tshirts, maybe they should watch this video and think again. good luck with your recovery dude and get back on a bike asap... bikes rule!!!!

  • wow.. was that road racing?? the roads weren't closed off earlier in the vid :s

    my mum has huge scarring from a car accident, look likes she survived a shark attack. Tom's leg is quite pretty compared.. both very lucky people.. glad your here to tell your story.

    This flick kinda pisses on all those people who ride an R6 with shorts and t-shirts... your skin will not protect you over 3miles per hour... why push ur luck?

  • Hi!

    yeah, i also say that you should wear anytime you ride a bike a good helmet and leather! i never drive with t-shirt or shorts.

    good to hear that your mom survived such a horrible shark attack! greetings from tirol

  • "huge scarring from a car accident, look likes she survived a shark attack"

    read again lol.... it was a horrible car crash not a shark attack.. it just looks like a shark has had her for lunch... i have a bug on my screen =[

    only place i ride without my nylons is college only 3 mile and i can't go over 45 on my bike =p its a 50cc

    if someone hits that fence again they may not stay this side of it... that should be fixed

  • Oh sorry that i misunderstand. I´ve readed "she had luck she survived a shark attack". sorry.

    That fence got fixed allready.

    whish you all the best, and take care when you go out for a ride

  • My fella and me were knocked off hs gixer 1100 five years ago in a hit and run broken legs torn ligaments the works. Last year some twat in a car nearly killed him again, he was in intensive care for over a week, nearly lost his left arm broke his leg, pelvis on both sides, arm, all his ribs on the right, punctured his lung and had to have his ruptured spleen removed. What I'm trying to say is we feel your pain and love to you all who've been there! Bikers forever, car drivers suck.

  • mate i feel ur pain! 2 weeks ago i came off my bike and broke my leg and shatered my knee cap on my left side. i also had some serious gravel rash. i hope u managed to get back on a bike! i sure hope i will soon

  • Suzuki walking sticks the best, keep them in your bdroom just in case, get your self a big ass 4x4 insted, you got enought scars to impress anybody, keep it safe, braza.

  • holy shit i feel lucky about my stack now i crashed my rm 125 on dirt gowen 70ks and only got a broken coller bone but put a huge crack in my helmet that would have been the side of my head....a 10$ helmet is for a 10$ head

  • good luck on you recovery you,ll be riding again soon

  • OUCH! really, i think u should advertise with that, and the best of luck recovering !!!

  • wow i like died while watching this man i wish u a fast recovery

  • the start of this video shows why we love riding so much! But the result of falling off needs to remind us of our Limits! I just Bought a K6 1000

  • good but a bit full on

  • Hattest ja nochmal Glück im Unglück. Diese verdammten einfachen Leitplanken... hab auch schonmal eine erwischt, war aber nicht so schnell. Gute Besserung

  • I wish I could have some sympathy. Ride hard. Crash hard. You got what you deserve.

    Speedy recovery though.

  • interestin vid that ,i did same thing but broke femur too .skin grafts hurt more than snapped bones !

  • this wasn't the right video to watch today, i'm supposed to buy a suzuki SV650S soon

  • scheisse....wird gesund und schwing dich wieder aufs bike....unfälle passieren,und die verletzungen sind hart...aber sei stark

  • I wish you a Speedy Recovery: My mom Want allow me to get a Bike. My Cousin was Killed about 20yrs ago.

  • Ich hoffe dir geht es mittlerweile besser, mir ist sowas auch schon passiert, bei mir war es aber ein Auto was die Vorfahrt nicht beachtete. Das Video ist toll gemacht. Ich fahre trotzdem wieder, aber mit etwas mehr Vorsicht gegenüber unachtsamen Autofahrern. Ich wünsche dir alles Gute auf der Welt.

  • i hope u get better...and this doesn`t happens again..next time u don`t know how lucky u would be...what speed did u had in that corner?? pls PM me when u`re next video it`s coming.

  • I was about 100 KM/H in this corner. I´m definetly no aggressive driver. It just happened. I´m no kind of like "Ghostrider" or something similar. I just wanted to show with this video how i love riding motorcycles, but also how fast something can happen.

  • At least you can tell us your exp... you're very lucky to stay alive...

    a few years ago i have a car accident and my leg broke as yours... so i understand the pain and how many time you need to recover from that...

    Thanks for sharing your experience...

  • wow, best of luck getting better!

  • omg that was a hard core crash, that was the biggest injury I've ever seen. The injury on his leg the big gash one was nasty.

  • hi tom, sitz grad beim rettungdienst und hab dein video gefunden! super video, und wir sehen uns dann sicher bald wieder! Robi

  • ich muss kotzen

  • Very interested , you have pain, i see. You do this never again...Next time, you would be dead, perhaps.Best wishes for you.

  • this can happen to ever1 be careful i now you ride good

  • man

    u needa learn how to control ur bike b4 u get one of the big machine

    i had a crash wehn i raced in the motogp 250cc class but now im in the 990cc class. i had a crash in the 250cc class, it wasnt pretty, i crashes at 165 mph in philipe island. but the next day i wuz back on my bike racing hard. if u wanna b a gud rider, u better start playin around wit a pocket bike b4 u get one of the big boy bikes.

  • Hi!

    @boisseluver46: i crashed cause i lost grip on the front and rear tyre at the same time. also valentino rossi wouldn´t be able to avoid that crash

  • Rossi probably would have saved his more aggresive riding for a race track. Sucks about your injury and I hope you recovered well.

  • Im also biker and I also had very nasty fall. My left leg is similiar to yours except my bone was crushed and leg was almost off the body. My right leg has been "only" broken, I had injured spleen and I was drivinh wheelchairs for 6 months and I learned how to drive hem od back 2 wheels:-).

    Im still riding the bike offcourse!:-)

  • omggggggggggggggggggggggg

    you are a hero that you servived a crash like that

  • pretty bad crash!!! but you can't ride a fuckin bike without expecting to fall off somtime... especially speeding!!!

  • That was a very thoughtful film. Thanks

  • omg poor guy

  • ok boss im sorry .. the sound of the bike like a 1000-ccm bike . grezz sadi

  • I think i could know what u passed brother.

    i've done you similar accident with my R6, the guard rail broke my femor ,tibia and peron like yours.

    I wase more lucky because i hadn't muscle and skin problebs, but i had a kind of letal embolism (the same of Petterson after F1 monza GP '79) but after 4 days of coma i woke up !!

    Take care!

  • you must .. beginig whit little machines .. 50²

    not like you to buy a suzuki gsx-r 1000 you must have kontrol on your machine

    but i dont want to say you some things

  • who says that i ride a gsx-r 1000? and who i says that this was my first bike?

    i started with a SV-650 for about 6 years ago. then i drove a gsx-r 600 and now a gsx-r 750. i never had a gsx-r 1000. i had the accident with my gsx-r 600, and i was driving for about 4 years when i had the accident. so i was definetly not a beginner

  • oooooooohhh .. fuck wehn my pearents see this video .. they never let me more .. to ride my (derbi gpr 50 nude)

    grezz from swizerland :-)

    tom first learn to be a rider ..

  • > tom first learn to be a rider ..

    what do you mean with that?

    greetings from tirol

  • thats the fuckin gnarliest skin graph i've ever seen holy shitballs

  • wow i´m really impressed right now. this is definetly very bad luck! i had 2 crashes myself and my knees dont look any better.... but i still ride like a devil. i can´t stop it its like a drug :( cya guys good luck to tom :S

  • Jesus man, grEat video.. . can i post a video response for all wrecked bikes?.. . its quite simple but nice ill make more videos of more modern bikes. But i just wnt to introduce my self to ppl. after watch it let me know if i can post it as a video reposne. Thanks man and drive safe.

  • nice vid, your road rash and breaks were hard to look at though . glad that barrier kept you on the road. how many lives left now?

  • > how many lives left now? 6... and i hope this will be a very long time from now

  • fuck....thats make me think about bike riding...thats not fine...

  • what happened: i was driving through this left corner, at the end of the corner, i´ve lost grip on the front and back tyre. so i started sliding into the rail guard. i was about 120 KM/H (75 MPH) fast when i hit the rail guard. The curios thing is, that i didn´t hurt anything else except my left knee

    after i got back from hospital, i sold my bike. i was very long thinking if i should ever ride again a bike. but now i´m driving a GSX-R 750. but with much more respect of course

  • i really dislike this tune sorry to be negative but it makes me feel better saying it lol

  • schaut echt übel aus gute besserung, wenn man fragen darf was ist genau passiert, zu schnell, oder weggerutscht?

    that one looks bad, i wish you the best and a good healing of your leg, what's happening in your accident, too fast, or lost grip?

  • sick man sick

  • very lucky and brave. men do cry, they just don't give up.i wish you good and safe rides.

  • unlucky man, made me feel sick lol

  • Great video!

    This' what they should show to youngsters that want to start bike-riding!

    Great to see that your wounds are healing!

    Take care!

  • Hy, Tom , I'm curious... what did you do with your bike after the crash???

  • this was a great video even though it was your first time. You were lucky to have survived that accident. what happened, your back wheel spun out going around that curve?

  • i had a similar accident you justa broke the tibia?.

    on my leg they had to do ankle fusion

  • I broke my tibia, fibual 2 times, dislocated my ankle, on the top of the tibia i also broke a little bone out of it and i got cut off my cruciate ligament. i got 4 surgeries. i hope that everything will heal perfectly

  • shit, the reality of crashing is quickly reminded when watching a video like that. I will think of that leg everytime i drop a gear and roll my wrist around.

    Crashing is the only fear when riding hard and fast.

    I wish you all the best for the future and your leg.

  • this is a real touching video ps wat software did you use to put that video together u r a ledgend!!!

  • i´ve used adobe premiere. it´s expensive and a little complicated, but it´s a really great application!

    I´m definetly not a legend! this was my first movie. it´s not really good since i´m a beginner with movies. but i hope the 2nd one will be a lot more better

  • so wat if it was ur firt one well u can say it was ur first good one. i'm sure i can get that software my cuz does that kind of stuff he's a photographer!

  • please tell me how to use the god damn thing (premiere pro)

  • evanescence - bring me to life

  • how this song is called?

  • evanesence - bring me to life

    linkin park - in the end

  • Well I'm sure you were warned like a trillion times about the basic risk involved pushing the limits...not that this will stop any others from doing it anyway!<br />

    Must have been painful as hell.

  • For sure i drive now a lot more gentle and slower. I never thought that i would have an accident like that, but it happens very quickly.

    And yes: The pain was sometimes killing me. But hey, i´m a man, and man don´t cry ;-)

  • Aua, das glaub ich!!

    Fährst du noch Motorrad? GSXR?

  • Jo, fahre inzwischen wieder. Eine 750er GSX-R K4...

  • Bloody hell bro, this must have been a bloody nightmare, I remember I fell of my bike by only got my skin ripped off my left leg pretty hard, it heart but comparing to this it was nothing. Why did they put this kind of net in your leg?

  • This "net" is the skin from my femoral. It just looks like net. Meanwhile it looks a lot more nice.

  • Verdammt!!!

    Trotz Schutzausrüstung, so übel, ohne wärs glaub vorbei gewesen.

    Was warn des an deim Bein des Netz da, wo die Haut fehlt??

  • Naja, dieses "Netz" ist die neue Haut. Diese haben sie vom Oberschenkel runtergenommen (sieht man wo ich die kleine GSX-R halte). Diese Haut haben sie dann mit einer Maschiene gelöchert, sodass sie diese noch mehr dehnen konnten. Dann haben sie diese Haut über das "Loch" gelegt und angetackert...

    Ich werde dieses Jahr a neues Video machen, da sieht man dann wie es inzwischen aussieht. Ist schon um einiges schöner geworden, aber die Karriere als Fuß-Model ist definitiv gelaufen ;-)

  • Hi, is echt übel!!

    Hattest du bei dem Unfall Schutzkleidung an?

    Also ne Kombi??

  • Hi!

    Ja, hatte ne Kombi, Stiefel, Handschuhe und alles drum und dran an gehabt. Fahre auch nie ohne gscheiter Ausrüstung. Ohne dieser wäre es wohl noch schlimmer gekommen.

    Gruß

    Tom

  • Nice clean break of your tibia and fibula. Any idea what your leg hit? By the looks of the fracture and the bruise it was something with a small surface area. OUCH!

    Also, the pic at 4:20 with the little motorcycle...is that where they took the skin for the skin graft?

  • Hi!

    My knee hit the pole on the guard rail. Yes, that pic with the little Motorcycle is where they took the skin off. Now it looks a lot more nice.

  • woa bro, im gettin a bike in 3 months, scary stuff...good thing ur ok, whatever doesnt kill you only makes u stronger!

  • Woah thats scary, really glad to hear you're ok though

  • awesome intro. ride safe and get better

  • drive slow

  • OMG dudee...i cant get on my bike again...just kidding. Nothing can keep me away from my passion...hope you gonna heal just fine. take care

  • If i show this to anyone in my family, i will never ever get a bike :) Hope you're ok and don't live these again :) Drive safely on roads, go crazy on track!

  • Sobering

  • thats some scarey shit dude. you hit that rail fucken hard. i wont show my wife this vid or my bike is gone for good. have you been riding since the accident?

  • yeah, i´ve been riding since my accident. for sure you think a lot about the accident. next summer i will make a 2nd movie with some new pictures of my knee.
