SAN JOSE, Costa Rica (AP)—Jeremy Lusk, an American freestyle motocross rider, died of head injuries Tuesday after crashing while trying to land a backflip in competition. He was 24.

Jorge Ramirez, chief of the intensive care unit at Calderon Hospital where Lusk was taken, said the motocross racer suffered severe brain damage and a possible spinal cord injury.

Very sad. That said, I'm really surprised more of those guys aren't killed doing some of that stuff.

Tragic indeed, but I agree, you'd think there'd be more accidents like that one.

sad indeed. i too am amazed that there isn't one killed or paralyzed every other week. these guys break bones that Evel Knievel never even heard of.

women are like tornados. In the beginning there's a lot of sucking and blowing. In the end, the car's gone, the house is gone..
