GREATEST MOMENTS

Pastrana was one of the bikers in 2003 who had considered attempting the flip trick that Deegan eventually owned, but Pastrana earned back his credibility three years later by shocking the motocross world with a trick many thought was impossible: the double backflip. Doing impossible things in the face of massive danger is what makes certain X Games moments legendary, and Pastrana put a lot of jaws on the floor when he landed a trick that just as easily could have killed him as make him a legend. No trick in this sport has been quite so awe-inspiring since. Travis Pastrana Double Backflips HisWay Into America’s Heart (2006)
