I stepped down off a high stool and ripped the hell out of my favourite pair of jeans. I am a very new beginner sewist and want to
try mending these if possible, but the rip is really big and in a high stress spot. It connects all the way to the crotch seam and continues to rip in the other direction if I wear them.

Is it possible? Is there a technique and fabric anyone recommends? Should I just take it to a professional?
