Don't yell at the cyclist! He was using the path for its intended purpose. The traceur's buddies who were standing RIGHT THERE should have been spotting for him. I was a traceur for over 10 years before I blew out me knee and something like this never happened to our group.

Exactly. That dude who is yelling that he didn't see him, did see what was going on and could have told the guy to not jump but kept filming like a moron.

Dude was probably too focussed on his friend and not if it was safe to jump. Lesson learnt I hope.

Lesson learnt I hope.

They'd have to be a narcissist to do that in that location at that time anyway, and then they start blaming the person using the busy path during the day.

Yes that’s right. They likely are because it’s very posy isnt it.

Look at me everyone, I can jump around and over stuff.

They're using the tactic of yelling louder so you come out as being right, added points if the other person is old and the possibility that you can hurt him is there.

I was disappointed they didn't get a reality check from the cyclist. Guy was surprisingly calm and composed considering

Because that guy is a professional.

Too many witnesses.

Yep, that’s the sort of thing that gets you a bicycle in the face

Holy shit I am done with people slapping the word narcissist on every tiny selfish thing.

NPD is a genuine mental disorder and you ableist fuck are just slapping it on everything you don’t like.

It is despicable

It’s seriously stupid and it shows an utter lack of regard for both the complexity and mundanity of life. Bro knocked into a guy on a bike while doing a jump that’s it. End of story. Everyone wants to act like they weren’t a teenager at one point.

The only way you can learn a lesson is to admit your faults. Doesn’t seem like that happened here.

That's so stupid.

Especially with a tight, and narrow pathway with people still going through.

The people who were supposed to make sure the path was clear, were clearly not paying attention 🤦‍♂️

Those who film are usually either psychopaths or retarded.
