@@speedkingz u have to cross the crashline (line after the finish line) with both ski's on. For example if you go over the finish line, stop before the crash line and take off one ski you get disqualified. (happend to Hermann Maier)
The fact that Hermann Mayer and Vitalini left the track basically unscathed is beyond comprehension. In the following days Mayer was able to win a couple of gold medals at the Olympics. 😂😂😂 After that fall he earned his nickname Herminator
as someone who is in a team for skiing and broken 4 of my bones from skiing this is a dangerous sport and im thinking of quitting since im starting to get really scared especially from todd brookers crash
Had that secondary barrier not been in place TJ Lanning would’ve definitely at the very least been paralyzed from hitting those trees. World Cup downhill racers are literally putting their lives on the line every race.
Want there another crash right after Maier? I remember watching it and singing else got wrecked on that same drop. Iirc there was a cross wind causing problems for several people.
But in motorcycle racing the speeds are higher. I never raced, high sided once - pretty scary. But it was 60-70km/h accident when someone decided to cut in front of me that left me with screws in my tibia. No more double diamond skiing since then, at 55, I can barely ski Blacks - my knee just can't take the abuse.
and werent really hurt ! thank you for that!!, as an austrian , i know there were very bad lifechanging crashes.. its a risk and those who can build up enough confidence to do it for a race, they should be reveered(?sic).. @@speedkingz
Number three is absolutely brutal. But they didn't show the guy who ripped his pelvis in half and left a trail of blood as he slid down the hill. I guess because it's too graphic, and he died in hospital. Wasn't as spectacular as some of these, but was the worst I've seen.
Those guys can go up to 140 km/h. It's probably one of the most dangerous sports. However, I cannot blame them for loving it. I'm a pretty good recreational skier. I have the app ski-tracks on my phone. It tracks your speed. My record was 90 km/h. Skiing very fast is an absolute thrill, the dopamine and adrenalin rush is undescribable amazing. It's like a drug, it's like an addiction.
the worst was reinstadler in wengen, period. Seeing the pictures in my head wants me to vomit till today. Kilde crashed today in same style at the same spot. Due to better security nowadays "only" a open fracture to his leg.
Kilde kinda slided into the net, reinstadler litteraly flew straight into it, so its a small difference, although i dont want to know what would have happened with the old security standards today.
For sure. They get real hurt. It's more ice than snow, and the speed and force is insane. Hitting the ice is like hitting concrete and the net has a crazy deceleration
As a competitive slalom skier at 13 years old I can attest to the fact that the snow on race courses is not soft, if you listen closely you can hear the edges of the skis fail to grip the snow/ ice even though they are most likely sharp enough to cut your fingers.
@@speedkingz yes a saw it on another video..But still there's practicly the same turn in Val d'Isere.That was I had the first idea on the french spot Never mind..The good situation is that Maier despite his crash won a gold medal 3 days later...

If the skier falls but tumbles across the finish line, does it count towards their time and a win?
Yes, I think so. But, most often they will lose a lot of time so they dont Brother about the result or just say its a DNF
@@Defender78 yes, Lara Gut's first podium had such finish
@@Defender78 When I raced you had to cross the finish line with 3 pieces of equipment to count. ie. 2 poles and 1 ski for example.

First to say
I’m a MotoGP fan, but after watching this I wanna get into watching some downhill skiing, looks like a similar kind of rush.
The rush is comparable - but in downhill skiing your body does all the work. That ads a whole other dimension.
@@jclemme1 I'd also suggest that a MotoGP bike has far more effective brakes!
Sure. At the end of a downhill race there is no power left for braking.
@@jclemme1 Or when you're airborne and facing a tight turn! When's the next downhill competition to watch, I'm excited!
But in motorcycle racing the speeds are higher. I never raced, high sided once - pretty scary.

Kitzbuhel has flattend the vicious hill just before the finish. Many accidents occur on the Hausbergkante; steep, bumpy and the racer is tired.
