Eighteen-year-old Canadian mountain biker Tom Van Steenbergen attempted what is being called the biggest front flip in MTB history with a 72-foot upside-down cliff-gap huck. Steenbergen was competing in the Red Bull Rampage, an MTB contest held last Monday near Virgin, Utah.

Lucky for Van Steenbergen, he was able to walk away from a hard fall. Lucky for us, he was wearing a camera. Check out the video below.
