Jeremy Lusk Accident Video – Metal Mulisha Rider in Coma

Motorcycle freestyler Jeremy Lusk had a bad accident during a competition in Costa Rica and remains in coma and critical condition. The competition was broadcast by Costa Rican television so the accident is recorded on a video. Jeremy Lusk, who’s a member of freestyle biker group called Metal Mulisha attempted a front flip and it didn’t quite go as he would have imagined. After a bit of a flight, Jeremy Lusk landed on his head which was stopped by the ground, while his body continued in a motion down the hill, ultimately twisting biker’s neck. He remained motionless on the ground as medical personnel approached his body to take care of him.

After the accident, Jeremy Lusk was immediately moved to Calderon Hospital in San Jose where he was put into a doctor induced coma, because his brain was swelling. Coma apparently pauses your brain from functioning which could prevent it from suffering permanent damage as result of unwanted activity. According to Metal Mulisha publicist Cheryl Lynch, Jeremy Lusk underwent 4 hours long brain surgery as soon as he was hospitalized to deal with subdural hematoma.

Cheryl Lynch further stated that Jeremy Lusk didn’t suffer any damage to his neck or spinal cord. So even though it appears from the video as though his neck got it really bad, it wasn’t in fact his neck, it was the blow to his head that struck his brain badly and knocked him unconscious.

Following hours are crucial for Jeremy Lusk. Doctors are scarce on details, but they all say the same thing – the future of Jeremy Lusk will be decided in next couple of days. Many fans of Metal Mulisha or just freelance motocross in general are sending their prayers his way. There’s been an emergency fund set up on Athlete Recovery Fund Website where people willing to donate to help with Jeremy Lusk’s recovery can do so easily with just a click of a button.

Hope he pulls through. Video of the accident is below:
