Kurtis Downs Flies Head First Into a Fence | Tommy's Epic Fails

The definition of luck is a fluid thing, it turns out, especially when you do what we do. Case in point: A few years back BMX phenom Kurtis Downs was helping test a prototype pulley system for one of our tours, and it gave him a slightly harder pull than anticipated. The result is an overshot that was somehow saved by a chainlink fence and Kurtis' helmet. About us: Nitro Circus is what happen as when a group of extremely talented and fearless friends decides to make their hobby into their profession. This crew of wild ones represents a cross section of everything awesome in action sports: freestyle motocross, BMX, skateboarding, scooter, snowboarding, skiing, BASE jumping, sky diving, and a bunch of stuff that shouldn't be taken down a ramp. Nitro Circus tours the world putting on shows featuring all of the above and more. In our constant quest to always do what we love and push the boundaries of what's possible in action sports, we have some epic crashes and legendary fails, but stick or stack, our only goal is to have fun and entertain the world in the process.
