My gosh.

I wonder how fast he was going? He was airborne for what looks like 100 yards. His head bounces. Horrible.

Man that was crazy! Not only did he bounce his head on the landing but dragged it all the way down the hill on the side of his face.

Anyone know what happened afterwards?

OOff. Ow. I wish him a speedy recovery....

I don't think he was having a seizure, he was out cold.
He was still sliding downhill, without a background of any color it was hard to tell his speed.

There was a radar speedo on the lower right corner that said 141 when he biffed.

141kph= about 80mph, by my mental calculation of 100kph being 62 mph,
