This guy is literally the craziest person ever. I watched some videos of his crashes for the first time in a few years the other day and it still blows my mind that this guy can bounce right back up from some of this stuff. He has no fear, and absolute balls of steel. At 1:06 in this video has to be the biggest overshoot I have ever seen. He is easily 20 feet above the "knuckle" on chad's gap which is already 120'+. I think it might be even bigger than dumont's crash although he didn't get injured because it was into pow.

The landing on Chad's is a lot shorter than it looks in most shots. The other side of the gulch rises up quickly and sharply. I would guess Wilson landed in the flat, if not on the up slope.
