Danny Way Falls 45 Feet During The X Games, Showing Why We Watch Them

For the second year in a row, the X Games had a stupendous crash highlight during the Mega Ramp run, which shoots skaters 62 feet in the air after tricking along a 293-foot-long platform. Last year it was Jake Brown who got all the highlight reels going, but this year’s lucky loser was Danny Way, ironically the first person to build and bring the Mega Ramp to the masses. And what did he get for all his troubles? A silver medal, with the gold going to Bob Burnquist. But in 10 years when they have a retrospective, Burnquist’s gold-medal performance probably won’t make the highlight reel. What follows will.
