I used to ride BMX bikes up the age of 34.

Then one day I was riding down the street and a group of hot chicks saw me and laughed and said "Get a real bike!"

that prob happened to him and he did what I considered doing

Also, fun fact, but when you ride BMX, everyone that you pass on the street will yell "Do a trick!"

Sometimes you do them, and sometimes you wipe out. Then they all laugh

God, I'm 100% certain I know what happened to Dave Mirra

If you're over 20 and riding a BMX everyone just assumes you are on your second or third DUI.

depression finally overcame his desire to not abandon his wife and child

sad

luckily we still have travis pastrana who is immortal and unquadriplegic-able

If he cared that much about them he could have at least rid his bike off a big cliff or something so it would look like accidental death and they could still collect life insurance policy :shrug:

Lol okay yeah that is a good point.

Next question, do you think maybe he was depressed cause he had CTE like I figure he hit his head real hard a lot over the course of his career

What's CTE?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_traumatic_encephalopathy

They keep finding ex football players that had it, some of them killed themselves. It can only be diagnosed post mortem.

Dave is a person I have not thought about since middle school when the X games and riding my BMX where a big thing to me . Kind of a weird way of being reminded that he existed, by finding out he killed himself.

to be fair to the guys riding a BMX bike over the age of 20, they usually actually are on their second or third DUI
