Snowmobile Rider Caleb Moore Fights For Life After X Games Crash


Freestyle Snowmobile athlete Caleb Moore is currently in a critical condition with brain complications after his accident on Thursday at the 2013 Winter X Games in Aspen.

The Snowmobile Freestyle Competition saw several accidents (including Calebs brother Colten, who separated his hip) but viewers were releived to see all who crashed were conscious. Caleb even reportedly walked from the course after the accident.

However, it has since been reported that Caleb suffered from bleeding around his heart after the crash, which has led to further complications with his brain. A spokesperson for the family described Caleb as "...in critical condition and is being closely monitored."

We sincerely hope that Caleb shows some signs of recovery. You can show your support on Calebs Facebook Fan pages.

Lucky Escape Moto Crash



Normally, a post like this would be followed by "And that is why you wear a motorcycle helmet". However, honest question - would this dude have been better off without his helmet?

Either way, what could have ended up as a rather unpleasant POV video ended up as a lucky escape that has landed the uploadeder a current count of 28k views. Which is why we didnt feel guilty about laughing when the guy just rides off after fishooking his buddy on the front of his bike...
