Looks like he got lucky he didn't get hurt! Does it say what kind of axle he was running? With that hard of a landing, I'm sure he could have snapped any axle.

Yeah any axle would have snapped. That is almost a flat landing. The force on that axle is unbelievable during a landing like that. But otherwise, yes that DEFINATELY would have left a mark haha.
