I can't stand how people view these sorts of things as tragedy. This is not tragedy. This is a guy who knew the risks of a 300 mph funny car. It's like when someone gets eaten by a shark, everyone gets all mopey and mumbles about how tragic it is. It's not tragic, it's the food chain.
Now I can understand being sad about it, I'm just a cold bastard that has a problem with calling the highly likely a tragedy.

This is how every racing game I've ever played ends, either through frustration or sadism.

They show it anyway because the risk of a fatal crash is one of the only thrills to be found in watching this shit.
GOD BLESS AMERICA AND SCOTT KALITTA

He died doing what he love and on fire. We should all be as lucky.

zatojones - 2008-06-22 imagine if he loved being on fire. this would be the perfect death

One less idiot wasting gasoline....
I don't care if it would be "insignificant", all I know is that if "motorsports" were ended, gas would get cheaper.
|
drcrypt - 2008-06-22 Uh. No. It wouldn't. At ALL.
|
|
Ursa_minor - 2008-06-22 Also, the yearly gasoline expenditure of all the "motorsports" in america would probably equal that the yearly gasoline expenditure of 1 or 2 operating diesel tractor-trailers. Pick your battles.

Mike Tyson?! - 2008-06-22 I was beaten to this already, but they don't even run on the same fuel any highway vehicle does.
|
CornOnTheCabre - 2008-06-22 Well then what the hell are they doing wasting all our nitromethane?! Traffic wouldn't even be an issue if we were all going 300 miles per hour.

|
Ursa_minor - 2008-06-22 Most of all, because he wastes nitromethane, he deserved to die.

who would have thought that riding a car-like sled with a supercharged, nitro burning, V8 engine strapped to a frame that weighs slightly less than a fart at 300 mph would be dangerous?

Who put that concrete wall there? You think it'd just be open track for miles in case of something like this.
|
|
Syd Midnight - 2008-06-22 I'd think a long stretch of mud at the end would be more logical than a wall. It's like BASE jumping onto concrete while carrying a barrel of burning rocket fuel.

Probably less risky than driving every day

I'm less bothered by people calling this a "tragedy" than the people who try to take these kinds of accidents and extrapolate them into "this man is a hero."
That's the point where racing fans go into their loony-bin fucktardedness.

Toda la gente que acude a esta clase de eventos, lo hace con la intención de ver algo como esto... por lo menos esta vez no se sintieron defraudados.
|
mr666 - 2008-06-22 Sin duda algunas personas esperaban esto
|
mr666 - 2008-06-22 Hooray! I got to see how much of my high school Spanish I remembered!

Hooper_X - 2008-06-23
ayep.
that's pretty much the risk every one of those dudes takes every time they get in one of those things. I'm pretty sure he had no idea what the fuck even hit him, just YEAH VROOOO-

No one will ever fall in love with a nitro burning funny car
No one will ever eat lunch with a nitro burning funny car.

They took it down. Probably because it's worth too much money to put it up on youtube for free.
