Do not try this at home.
Professional BMX rider Anthony Napolitan would have been counting his crown jewels after spiking himself on a fence in a failed flip attempt.
The 31-year-old American, who earned mainstream notoriety by landing the first ever double frontflip in the X Games Big Air event in 2009, was filming a new edit when a near-tragedy happened.
Attempting to front flip out of a skateboard bowl and over what appears to be at least a two metre high fence, Napolitan finished well short — and skewered himself.
But his legs slotted perfectly between the upright bars, allowing him to walk away unscathed. "I really don't know how to describe this except for the fact that I'm really lucky," Napolitan wrote on Instagram.
