    Yikes! Still, it'll take more than that to get a mountain biker down. I know a few, and the way they seem to shrug off injuries is quite inspiring.

    Yeah saw this one... man... he's gets thumped. That's pretty much like getting hit by a car.
    Ouch!!! I'm sure there is an impala/car joke in there somewhere. :( (if that doesn't make any sense I present to you the '67 Impala SS)

    I don't know, as a mountain biker that's probably the most horrible thing I've ever seen happen to a rider that didn't involve a large vehicle.

    It's the randomness of it as well. I mean, it's almost as if the antelope chose his moment.

    what could the biker possibly have done to him though?

    Kid Moe Peace that don't belong

    But you have to admire the sense of timing that Buck has.. He intercepted that biker with such precision... :D I hope the guy is OK...

    PS: I was chased by an elephant when I was in South Africa... We were in a national park called Pilanesberg. All of us were in that tourist vehicle, something like a jeep... He came so close... I have it on camera... :D

    Truly amazing footage, especially the way he dropped his head right before impact. I wonder what he was thinking? "Who's king of the jungle now......?".

    I've been hit by a car and I reckon the antelope would be scarier with all that pointy crap on its head.
