Convince me that the kid in the first photo clears the entire line of kids before landing.

I can assure you as being one of the kids doing the jump and as one of the kids being jumped over in moments from around that time frame…that you did not always clear them.

Those always hurt like hell (both being on the bike and off) but I wouldn’t trade that experience away today. Some of the best times I had as a kid involved crashes, pain, ER trips, and stitches.

Good times!

I had the same thought. The kid in the end is looking into the camera like he knows he's about to be cut in half.

Right, he’s definitely at the apex and not halfway over the line!
