Crashes and slams are part and parcel of the sports we enjoy. Not a day goes by where we hear about someone falling off a ledge, hitting a patch of ice or just generally injuring themselves doing the sport they love. For us lot that prefer to watch more than partake, we get the joy of watching videos of these things and laughing our little hearts out to every scrape, cut and break. Sometimes it gets a bit too much and you just can’t look at the screen while that kid busts open his scrotum, but it’s more than entertaining when someone else ends up falling 300 feet down a slope cartwheeling.

If you’re a fan of watching these or just a sucker for punishment, then you’re in luck! We’ve lined up the best crashes and slams of 2012 so far! All you’ve got to do is sit back, hit play and be happy that it’s not you in any of these videos!
