Now that this is a thing, I’m quitting my day job so I can finally pursue my dream of starting an entertainment channel and social networking site entirely devoted to accidentally hitting animals while downhill skateboarding. It’s going to be called i-roadkill, or ZuubSplat, or something similar. I expect you all to bankroll it via kickstarter. You owe me.

From YouTube user lpe360screeners:
Amanda Roden, Maryhill Loops Road In Washington.
“My friends and I hiked it, we knew there were cows hanging out as we hiked up, I sort of just hoped they would stay on the side of the road…. but apparently cows have the right of way. I think I must’ve been going 30 to 40 mph. I didn’t see them in the road until i went around the corner, by that time I was already about to run into them, I figure it was to risky to try and go around, in case one ran me off the road….where there is a pretty good drop and a lot of rocks, so I put my head down and hoped for the best, I clipped the first cow you see, then I hit the other one, Gopro first and my gopro fell off, ended up with totally ripped pants and a hoof shaped bruise on my leg, plus a scar on my right arm. After that, the cows steered clear of the road, mooing angrily as they ran off. Having just ran into a group of cows you can imagine the amount of adrenaline pumping through my veins…. so my buddies and I hiked it again and made it down just fine the second time around.”

Your gopro and camera survived?! I’d be contacting gopro and whoever made the camera to try and work out a deal for the footage for advertisement.

My brother-in-law ran into a deer on his bicycle. No, the deer wasn’t on his bicycle.
Wait, wrong site.
Sorry.

They could have seen this coming. Kind of stupid to assume cows don’t move. Hell, they move when I’m cruising along a field on my longboard. A bad one for DH.
