Kyle Larson crash at end of Nascar race at Daytona today

Saw this live, it was pretty crazy. His engine, tire and suspension parts flew into the crowd injuring at least 6 people.
edit- not sure how to embed, someone tell me how?

Your horrible embedding killed at least 2-3 internet kittens.

:fu:

WOW!!!

Holy shit!

Word on the newswire is that Cuomo is already calling a special session to begin drafting up the NASCARSafeAct to prevent a tragedy like this from ever happening in NY. By morning, all NASCAR drivers will most likely be felons, at least in NY.

That spectator video is on youtube is someone wants to embed it.

HA

Wow. Looks like from that phone video that the tire & misc. parts went through where the camera man was positioned in a area of the catch fence that wasn’t fully covered? And then there was a tire sitting next to him. Crazy stuff.

Really makes you wonder how nobody was killed. I saw a picture of the kid who got hit with the tire being taken out on a stretcher and he was really beat up. His arm, leg and head all had bandages wrapped around.

Just heard on the news that there are no life threatening injuries, so that’s good. The guy who was hit by the tire said “Damn, I hope I don’t miss the race tomorrow” while he was bleeding, lol. Another lady who broke her leg said she’d definitely be at the race today.

NASCAR is giving all those injured really good VIP seats for today’s race :tup:

no more than 7 cylinders from now on. these 8 cylinder tragedies need to stop.

The tire doesn’t look bad, until you see this angle.

Incredible.

that’s insane.

i read that at least 2 people were listed as critical and 2 were on trauma alert, whatever that means.

but this was in Canadian media channels who have no stake in NASCAR ratings so probably more reliable :slight_smile:

Espn said 28 injured but no life threading injuries. I love how no one watches NASCAR untill something like this happens .

You are correct. That is scary!

This is the only reason anyone watches Nascar.
