 | Forum Reply | So I had a crash on my bike Tuesday Morning. at 13:34 9 Nov 2024
I cracked my shoulder turning right on a mini-roundabout - not nice. The worst accident though was riding my beautiful Mercian fixed-wheel into the back of a car stopped on double yellow lines. I should have seen it but the car shouldn't have been there! 50/50?! Anyway I went through the rear window ending up in the rear seat footwell and leaving a piece of my scalp with a tuft of hair on the rear parcel shelf. I know that because the police showed me the photos when I went to pick up the bike (which was wrecked) after leaving hospital. I was not wearing a helmet which probably saved me. My head punched through like a karate punch. If the helmet had taken some of the momentum away, the neck would've taken the main fI cracked my shoulder turning right on a mini-roundabout - not nice.

It is true that Chaplin was moving to his left. Just before the impact he was barely moving forward at all. The defender had all the momentum. Watch as the defender sees Chaplin move to the left. The defender's left leg goes wide left to enable him to push to his right (at speed) and hit Chaplin. That is why his left arm hits Chaplin. He has turned into him intentionally (see Ftnfwest above). Both players fall in the same direction; away from the goal. That is where the force came from. |
