Spong's was a crazy hard hit. I think his hurt the most out of all three.

Dumont overshot a jump, spong undershot. They both went about the same distance, give or take 20ft. Dumont landed and kept moving forward, spong landed and stopped. Spong was going faster and when he stopped the g's must have been enormous. Dumont was lucky he survived too but still I think spongs was worse.

Spong was given a 4% chance of survival after tearing his aorta(sp?). The mother fucker was so fucked up. Way worse then any other crash. Dumont just got fuckin lucky, but Spong got a fuckin miracle.

spong's and dumonts are a real tough two to decide from at first thought dumonts looks worse but then when you think about going like 80 and then stopping on a face of ice its obviously more painfull

Darell Sprongs was by far the worst. Some one said it well, that he was going SUPER fast and went right into a wall of ice.

Get well soon friend

Derek Spong was hurt the most....but Dumonts crash was the worst by far. He SCHOULD BE DEAD.....let alone be skiing. Just the impact it self schould have killed him, but i guess it all worked out.

Any crash like those are awful, because on each crash theres a few seconds where the dudes heart drops all the way down to his shoes because he knows there is absolutely nothing he can do and pure fear overwhelms him. To me, thats the fucking worst part. Everything else except death you can heal from, but those few seconds really fuck with you.
