A guy loses his balance around a sharp turn and saves himself with his elbow. AMAZING.

It's Colin Edwards. I posted this in April last year but it still looks as good today. :rockon:

Awesome thread...I love stuff like this....It is amazing the combination of luck an skill these riders have...these are the kinds of things that would likely kill a rider like me!

Thank you all for posting!

Amazing saves. I would scare the ****z out me. Now imagine if that rider was squid and saved it with his elbow like that...Ouch that would hurt.

I'm sure I saw Colin Edwards save himself with his elbow in a race once, wasn't the same incident as in the opening post. Great reflexes!
