man he is awesome! truly amazing when that can happen and he still makes life good. most people would just shut down. i wonder how that full roll cage effects him. most paraplegic only run the lower cage. none the less he is a BA

an awesome interview with the man, the myth, the legend. Doug Henry.

and for the guys who dont know Doug Henry's story, please i beg you to look it up. you will never find another guy with as much heart, courage, or dedication as you will find in Doug Henry. he is, a true legend. not just in the sport of MX, but in life itself. a true hero. you guys think some of yall have if rough, your lives dont compair to the things this man has gone threw, and worked past. plus, non of yall would be riding a 450 stroker, if it wasn't for yamahas wallet and Doug Henrys testing/bike skills. cause he is the guy who raced a 4stroke for yamaha for the 1st time. and he went out and won on its madin vouyage. so all us new school 4 stroke riders, we all owe him a huge thank you. cause with out him, we all still be banging on our 2 smokes..

dude, i remember watching that on ESPN the race it happened. he was battling "the king" and i was not ready to see what i was about to see. pure crazyness. but you can keep a good man down. he came back with a venginse. and that was onky the beginning of his awesome story. its just sad we all know the ending. either way, Doug henry is a true insperation to us all.
