Let's describe what you're seeing.... each of those tubes relate to a section of the shock and how much damping it provides... it's adjustable both by disks and nitrogen pressure
then you have the bump stops that are actually shocks.... each portion of that shock and damper is adjusted so that its reaction to the movement of the suspension is choreographed

so now look at this - he uses air shocks (which set ride height with air), quad bypass shocks with coil overs and hydraulic bumps .... each part is tuned for a specific portion of the travel.... so the idea that you'd break your back on a landing would require a lot more air then they're getting on that course
