Frame snapping goodness (video) 11 Months, 1 Week ago

This is why you NEVER ride a cracked frame...
I knew the frame was cracked but thought that i would just bend it appart... its funny cause i knew/ know aluminum is brittle and would just snap, but for some reason i convinced myself that it wouldnt. As extra measure just incase i disconnected all cables so if it did snap i could hopefully jump over the bars... I then procceded to case the jump repeatedly untill it happened, took 4 or 5 trys the first bunch were rear wheel cases and then the last (obviously) was a massive bottom bracket case, i really pushed on the bars to spread the frame appart and had no chance of bailing. FYI the frame was a 03 Rocky Mountain Grind. This was filmed in Hamilton a couple summers ago. Enjoy.
