Jeremy Lusk in Costa RicaTaking advantage of my weekend in San Jose, I bought tickets to enjoy a motocross show taking place on Saturday night: X-Knights. We arrive a little early and had great seats, the adrenaline was rising up and we were hoping to enjoy a very extreme show, and the heck we did.

 

Only a few minutes after the X-Knights show began the famous motocross driver Jeremy Lusk had a terrible accident and after flying up on his motorcycle he fell on the ground right on his head and was rushed to the hospital immediately. This was not the first time the X-Knights visited Costa Rica and although every safety measure was taken, extreme sports are called extreme for a reason.

 

Reading the newspapers I now find out that the motocross driver is still in the hospital, in coma and according to official statements from his publicist: -Lusk, of Temecula, is in Calderon Guardia Hospital in San Jose, in stable but critical condition with swelling of the brain. His coma was medically induced.-

 

It is really disturbing to see an athlete fall extreme sports in Costa Rica are very common and that is probably one of the reason the X-Knights show is so successful here, our prayers go to Lusk’s family and we hope he gets better in no time. Back in Guanacaste my kids are still talking about the accident, we did stay for the whole show; yet seeing such a moment live has them a bit altered.

 

Regarding my housing development project, business went great and all I have to do for now is wait and try to remove Lusk’ image falling from my head.
