The winner of the first Red Bull Art Of Motion was the Brit Ryan Doyle, who was the last to make the finals. But he had to celebrate his triumph in hospital: Doyle attempted to break the artistic record of the day with a three-fold corkscrew from a three-and-a-half meter high platform. What he broke was his leg: "Not such a big deal," he commented on the accident, unperturbed. ?With the victory itself I got more than enough compensation.? www.redbull.at/artofmotion
