I’m sure they mean Jake Brown at X Games I think 2007? He went over the megaramp with a backside 720, then when he tried to do the backside grab to turn around (going at fuck mph) he overshot and landed on flat from like 30+ feet in the air. Knocked his shoes off but he managed to walk away with assistance. [VIDEO] yep here it is. Tony Hawk was so stunned that he ends up mumbling “I uh…. Can’t believe he got the 720…
