I guess it's self-gratifying for you guys to act high and mighty regarding ATV's for some reason...

If you aren't falling off the ATV on occasion then you aren't on the limit. They're designed to be operated on the limit. If you aren't crashing them you're missing the point.

They're like BMX bikes or skateboards. The most important skill is to know how to jump off, tuck and roll or take a fall without getting seriously injured.

I've flipped an atv on it's side more than one time and I was riding at this so-called limit you speak of begle, but i never had 4 people on an atv and hit the side of a tractor trailer at full throttle, there's a difference between pushing the atv to the limit and pulling your friend around in a childs toy in the street and hitting the side of cement barrier, to me that's not pushing a quad to it's limits it's pushing stupidity to it's limits

That's the only inexplicable one I saw posted.

The one with the guy getting towed behind the ATV is close to inexplicable, but I once set my pants on fire being towed across a dry lake bed on one of those giant snow frisbees, so I have an understanding point of view on that one as well.

pertiain to the video to where the guy was being towed , was his head on backwards at the end?

that guy had to be seriously injured same as the semi trailer one

About the video of the guy being pulled either the helmet twisted or his neck did, hopefully the helmet, as for the semi trailer one I wouldn't be to surprised to find out that someone didn't make it out of there alive or seriously messed up, a lot of videos on here are very avoidable because they're rolling around on normal quads with multiple people on them, not saying I haven't been guilty of that, but riding style needs to change to compensate for that extra person, and to Begle, I used to tow around my little brothers in a snow sled behind the 4 wheeler, still there was nothing but snow and ground that they could've ran into, granted still dangerous but pulling someone around on pavement is a retarded idea

just make sure you dont loop the rope around your ankle :)

as for wrecks , i grew up on a 125M Honda 3 Wheeler , i rode on state trails everyday , during the summer dad would being home 5 gallons of gas from work every single day.

i rode that 3 wheeler so much that i would put my self in the record books if it was tracked, its all i did as a child.

and guess what ... ive never owned a helmet

this one place was hard to maneuver but it was in the middle of trail connectors so it had to be passable ... every time i would get to this spot i would flip it and land in the briers every single time , the 3 wheeler just couldnt do it , it didnt matter if i was sitting on the fender it would still flip , just got back up and went on , god looks after idiots and little kids ..thats proof of both
