"Adolf Silva has been evacuated from the Rampage venue in a helicopter after a horror crash while attempting a step-down double backflip.

During his second run at the 2025 Red Bull Rampage, Silva had a nightmare crash after failing to complete the second rotation of a double backflip of a step-down feature of his run. Medics were able to quickly reach Silva and he has been taken away from the venue in a helicopter.

We do not currently know the extent of Silva's injuries after the crash. Our thoughts are with Silva and his family in this difficult time and we are all hoping for a positive outcome.


Update:

The condition of Adolf Silva has not been updated since the report that he was awake, responsive and talking with his family. Out of respect to Adolf Silva and his family, we will not be reporting further on his injuries until an official statement is released to the public."

Commentator should never have said, seconds before the disastrous back flips: "And here is where things might get really crazy" .... either a true prophecy or else self-fulfilling....

I am guessing that he will/might make it back to his bike.
If not Red Bull will drop him like a rotten potato, because no longer of use to them.

Oh yes, of course, that slogan "Red Bull gives you wings", lol

Red Bull: "Do you value your life?"
Him: "Nah, not at all"
Red Bull: "Perfect. You're hired"
