Music video

The video chronicles Sinclair's life-threatening accident at the 2009 Red Bull X Fighters Freestyle Motocross event in Madrid, Spain, the rehabilitation and training he undergoes in the aftermath of this accident and his subsequent return to competition at the 2010 X Games in Los Angeles. In addition to Sinclair, the video also features appearances from a number of other athletes including, Robbie Maddison, TJ Lavin, Aaron "Wheelz" Fotheringham, Jaie Toohey, Cam White and James Doerfling among others.
