Carey Jason Phillip Hart (born July 17, 1975)〔 〕 is an American retired freestyle motocross, motorcycle racer and current off-road truck racer. He is known for the first attempted back flip on a 250cc motorcycle in competition and for his company ''Hart & Huntington Tattoo & Clothing Company''. He and singer Pink have been married since 2006. ==Career== Hart was given his first motorcycle by his father at age 4 in hope of creating a father-son pastime. Riding quickly became Hart's passion and he began competing in races at 6 years old in 1981, turning professional and competing in the AMA supercross circuit when he was 18 in 1993. Two years before turning pro, Carey had sustained two broken femurs, broken tibia and fibula as well as fractured wrists, after he was blind-sided by a tractor working on the track he was riding on, smashing straight into the vehicle. Hart was among the first riders to begin competing in freestyle motocross in 1996.〔 Carey was the first rider to publicly perform BMX trick the "superman seat grab" at IFMA events in 1998–99. He was also the first person to perform the "invert superman" seat grab at the 1999 Gravity Games in Providence, Rhode Island. This trick is now known as the "Hart Attack".〔(''Inked'' magazine )〕 In 1999 Carey took home the Bronze medal at the Summer Gravity Games and Gold at the Australian X Games. During the 2000 Gravity Games in Providence, Rhode Island, Hart attempted the first back flip on a 250 cc motorcycle in competition.〔http://expn.go.com/xgames/sxg/viii/s/020815_backflip.html〕 Hart is credited with the first "attempt" of a back-flip as he over-rotated his flip and suffered a hard landing, displacing him off the seat. 2000 saw Carey win several FMX competitions and honors including the Silver at the Las Vegas LXD Freeride MotoX and Toyota's Trick of the Week. At the 2001 X-Games in Philadelphia, Carey attempted the backflip again for the best trick competition but suffered a bad crash coming off his bike at the beginning of the rotation. His injuries included several broken bones and ribs along with a bruised tailbone. It was there he met his future wife, singer Pink. In 2002, Carey again picked up the Gold medal at the Australian X-Games as well as gaining the Silver medal in the MotoX Best Trick at the Summer X Games in Los Angeles. The same year, Carey participated in the ''Tony Hawk's Boom Boom HuckJam Tour''. At the 2003 X-Games in Los Angeles, Carey successfully completed the backflip in the best trick competition picking up the Silver medal behind Mike Metzger, who landed a no-footed backflip. The same year, Hart participated in the Gumball 3000, an annual British 3,000-mile (4,800 km) international road rally which takes place on public roads. 2003's route was from San Francisco to Miami. He is also featured in the film ''Gumball 3000; The Movie''. The biographical documentary ''Goodtimes With Carey Hart'' was also released in 2003. Carey again participated in the Tony Hawk's Boom Boom HuckJam tour but was seriously injured on the first night, having to bail into the scaffolding to avoid hitting a skater after the mistiming of their jumps. Hart broke both his arms and legs as well as suffering severe blood clotting during surgery. The crash took him out of competition for three years. In 2004, Hart and John Huntington opened Hart & Huntington Tattoo Company in Las Vegas. The A&E network followed Carey and the workings of the shop on the reality show ''Inked''. Hart and Huntington Tattoo Company also launched a clothing line based on the designs of the artists at the store. With H&H's expansion, the clothing line is now based on the tattoo/action sports lifestyle and culture. Soon after the opening of the Las Vegas store, John Huntington sold his 48 percent ownership back to Hart. In 2006, Huntington filed a lawsuit against Carey, alleging he owed large amounts of money for his trademark and likeness. Hart reportedly hired high-profile Las Vegas attorney Gene Porter to resolve the case through a mediation settlement, which was in turn successful. In 2005 Carey was the host for ABC's Live's X Games FMX coverage and was a cast member on the fifth season of the VH1 reality show ''The Surreal Life''.〔http://www.vh1.com/shows/dyn/the_surreal_life_5/series_about.jhtml〕 In 2006, two Hart & Huntington Tattoo Company stores opened in Hawaii and Cabo.
