Stupid question here-ive seen em a thousand times, but what exactly causes a highside wreck? I understand lowsiding a bike. Ive watched a ton of videos but cant seem to make the connection in my mind as to what happens when someone highsides their bike, I mean what are the physics involved?

Well in that video it looked like he hammered on the throttle the rear tire lost traction skid and then all of a sudden stuck to the ground. With the front and rear tire out of line both trying to go two seperate directions and WHAMMY!!!!

Glad your alright man. Bike can always get fixed but the body, sometimes not so much.
