X Games skateboarder still in hospital
Saturday, August 4th, 2007
X Games skateboarder Jake Brown walked away from maybe the nastiest fall ever when he plummeted 40+ feet during the X Games Skateboard Big Air competition at the Staples Center in LA [video]. Jake didn’t come out completely unscathed though, the skateboarder did suffer from both a bleeding lung and liver. The hospital is reporting that Jake has stopped bleeding from his lung, but is still bleeding from his liver. Jake is expected to make a full recovery, but the hospital plans to keep him there until the bleeding in his liver stops.
