that was a horrible crash

A friend posted this on Facebook. I was clueless as to who it was. I just thought it was a friend.

 

[Darrell]

Terrible.

 

[Natasha]

I don't watch racing, but a friend of mine posted this on Facebook and I watched it. It looked like a horrific crash...I'm surprised more people weren't injured more seriously (or killed). I don't know anything about Dan Wheldon, but he looked like a youngun. I can't imagine what his family is going through right now.

 

[Panacea]

Very sad, it says he was 33 I guess, and looks like he has a young child. Like Natasha, I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often...it's so incredibly dangerous. Horrible.

 

[Alien Allen]

I saw one view which looks like a wheel hit him in the head.

Holy crap :shock. How the h e double hockey sticks were more not hurt/killed?! There have been way to many tragedies going on lately. This made me think of Dale Earnhardt. So sad

 

[Peter Parka]

R.I.P. Although he was not really known here, he was British and was touted as a future F1 star.

There's something to be said for going out doing what you love to do.
