43371, Luge Death in Vancouver
Posted by Babbz413, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
Anyone catch any of the footage of the 21 year old georgian luger who flew off the track at 90 mph? pretty devastating. the olympics will not show or release any footage on the air and its hard to find online as well due to copyright laws from ioc...

Yeah. from 90 to stop via steel beam.....I don't think he suffered or felt much. There are a few pictures floating around, one of the he's about 2 inches away from hitting the beam, square on his back, neck, and head.
