The Atherton Project - Back Breaker

- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- Episode 7 starts back at the Athertons' home in Wales. The family have their own trails behind the house which they train on whenever they're back home, and Dan and Gee hit the jumps.
Testing out a new line, suddenly, Dan disappears behind a jump for a lot longer than seems normal, and Gee and Clay rush to investigate, to find Dan on the ground. It's a neck injury, and it doesn't look good. In fact, it turns out Dan's lucky to be alive.
It's at least three months off the bike for Dan, which has him thinking about the bigger picture. This episode is dedicated to the fallen riders who may not have been so lucky.

I love it how Dan breaks his neck, so gee makes a turkey out of a glove in the hospital. Typical Gee. Mind you from this stage to where dan is now, what a recovery!!!!
For anybody wondering, a BMX Dirt Jumper Stephen Murray had a similar accident but wasn't quite as lucky as Dan as he was Paralysed from the neck down. The last part of this video's description instantly made me think of that and the utmost respect for Red Bull / The Atherton Project for including that indirect tribute! Stay Strong Stephen!
MrTechEasy Amen to that....Much respect Stephen👊
When you break your neck and someone in the room is having a good laugh in the background.
What a cool family!.. & props to Red bull & all involved in the tribute!..
Dan is a warrior. So strong physically and mentally. What an inspiration.
get well soon Dan, your basically the reason i got into mtb and inspiration to me and thousands of other people, can't wait to see you back on your bike being the Dan we all know and love. get well soon
Wow Dan is a trooper and a hell of a lucky one get well soon.
Love Dan's yawn @ 8:54
I know this is an old video but.... OMG.... i can’t say how inspirational this is! X
major props dude. Hurts to see a fellow biker get hurt like that. Hope you get better soon and get back doing what you love
this has inspired me to buy a neckbrace. glad to see your back on the bike now dan!
i fractured 4 vertebrae 3 years ago so i know how awful it is in that situation
Watching that gave me goosebumps, get well soon Dan
Haha Dan on the ground holding his head: "Why the F**K did I try that?"
Gee: "Cause you're rad!!!!"
I know people who have had to have halos (the head gear) and my respect for him being an athlete after needing one of those is immense
Best wishes from Austria, get well soon.
mate i was in the exact same position a year ago. All i can tell you is that by doing it on weekends when I can and a good bit in holidays I can now do the majority of the freeride trails in my local woods fairly confidently, working on tweaks. I think if you practice alot there is always a possibility but i know how frustrating it is not to have started at 7 at snowboarding, biking, art (so basically all the things id love to do for a career).The only way to find out is to keep trying! Gd luck!
i have a friend. he also broke his back from a month. the doctor said he cant move his arms and legs anymore. but today he can move his arms and this is so great because he is only 18 years old and its realy hard for all of his friends to see how he wont ride a bike anymore.
Dan, you are the bomb. Speedy recovery man.
good luck with your recovery, hope its quick.
GL on a speedy recovery!
Get well soon Dan!! You got great support.
hope you get well soon dude
I love this show, thanks for the post it looks like he recovered quite well which is awesome, surprised they didn't show the crash
Nick Beaudoin it wasn't in shot read the description
Get well soon dude
man i hope the best recovery possible for you!
3rd time I watch this, third time I say it : UNLUCKY POOR DAN
good luck with everything Dan
get well soon mate
thats really terrible, i feel really badly for both of you. I sincerely hope they come out with a treatment for it. I hope all the best for you and your brother.
Solid as a bloody rock. He is such a warrior.
cant wait for you to get back on your bike Dan!
I hope dan makes an amazing recovery and has super bike powers
Well man you on your way bike in to it now keep up the progress man !!! Good luck !!!
@valanidi Clay Porter makes the videos. Redbull has nothing to do with it. However, I too wish he would add the track listings in like he did in season 1.
Good luck Dan!
am i the only person who teared up a little around the 7 minute mark, watched Gee feeding Dan...
get well soon
Holy crap that must hurt. Can't wait to see him back on his bike racing 4X and Downhill :))
Imagine the pain. We've all slept funny and woken up with pain in neck and that's bad sometimes
@BlueAllJ well their are titanium bolts which are screwed into the outer portion of his skull.
Oh man freaking gee with the glove! haha
Dan i love you.....from brazil!!!
Do the metal spikes go through his head, or am I being stupid?
Strong dude 👊🏼
Get well soon!
daim, those ambo's were hot. thumbs up!!!
It's a shame that Rach and Dan seem to try the hardest but don't always do as well as they hoped whilst Gee seems to cruise on though, still got big love for all of them though!
Poor Dan, get well soon man!
get well soon men.
i think everyone will join me when i say i wish you a speedy recovery and get back on the bike soon dan (:
Get well soon Dan, your a legend!!
get well soon bruv!!
ps. damn redbull people, get a bloody tracklist in there..
Get well soon Dan looks like the man above is looking on you!
what is the song when there dirt jumping i doesn't say :(??? plz help
get well soon. crazy shit!
Gee and Rachel wouldn't be as strong without Dan
He is so lucky.
C1 vertebrae is instant death.
It provides your whole body with commands and electric pulses.
Unbelievable.
Get well soon mate.
Anyone know the song during the dirt jumping section??
welcome back bro!!
martin sands from the downhill track in llangollen told me about this, said you were stuck in oswestry orthopedic! unlucky fella, you'll be back riding before you know it!
@silistylefly well a neckbrace only helps if you are wearing a fullface helmet...
Would any type of protection actually of saved him from this injury, such as a neck brace? I'm guessing not.
i wanna know what the song is in the background at the end... any ideas people?
Get well soon Athy :)
lol, they are screwed into a head support, not his skull.
Dab you are a legend..get well soon dude from all the cyclejunkies
Your the man, Dan. Heal up soon.
nasty injury - hopefully the recovery will be uneventful. Good luck
Dan: Dying
Gee: MMM YES TURKEY
Is there somone know the opening music title?
is there no ep 8 :??
I can't image that it would have as it was the force of him hitting the floor practically vertically that cracked his vertebrae, but if I was him. I would have worn it if I had it.
get well
legend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
fuckin hell thats scary
so glad he got lucky
i love how dan always gets hurt
Shit Dan, never nice to see any riders get hurt.
Get well soon Dude!

ive seen a lot of riders wearing neck braces and i think they do help, check out the wingsforlife website, they make neck braces and explaining them. After watching this im seriously considering getting one, even though im not hitting the kind of jumps they are.
Everyone crashed dude no one can help it.
