Whoa! This is the first I have ever heard of him or this incident since I dont follow that sport... Daaaaamn, he died from that? Did he die instantly, or later? Any more info that people can share for the noobs such as myself?
When I first watched it I said "Holy crap, looks like he broke his neck". guess I was right...
That is what happened right? Broken neck?

Nothings been mentioned about a broken neck, but they do say he had severe brain damage and even after the surgery they couldn't get the swelling to go down enough to close his skull. Also mentioned possible spinal cord injury. They say he died when the doctors were pulling him out of the medicine-induced coma from respiratory and cardiac failure.
They've pulled the original video I seen that showed from the crash to him being pulled off, and Im no doctor, but Im sure the way he was taken off did not help him at all. Although they did put him on one of those boards with the neck brace, they manually carried him off the track while jogging and you could see his head bouncing around

flat that file. Flag it everywhere. Imagine if that was your son/husband/brother. Would you want people watching it like some terrible horror flick. So sad.
I just talked to a guy in my car club that knows him VERY well. Has known and been friends with him for 12 years. His wife his very tights with him and his family. This is a hard enough situation for them without the videos.

yeah, faceplanting over the bars and having your legs flip over your head is the scariest feeling.
