    Absolutely tragic.
    For those wondering about the hit, see Dale Earnhardt sr.
    The impact he took did not look to bad either but if i recall, it was considered blunt force trauma to the chest.

    I thought I remembered it being a pretty big hit. That hit was also a wall.

    yeah but go back and check it out. When it happened it was thought of as a softer crash at first and people were perplexed until the math behind the force was brought to light.
    He was turned sideways and drove five feet into the wall and didn't look like he hit it hard at all.

    But the point being is racers are extremely well protected. Nothing really even hit him in the chest directly. Just the force of hitting the wall created g’s enough to kill him.
    What i recall anyhow.

    Saw clip of Tucker Carlson going on and on about how this could be the vaccines fault on Twitter. Left a comment that he should go play in traffic now I’m banned. Buhbye Twitter.

    They weren't as well protected then. He hit the wall at about 160 miles and hour, but it was both the impact with the wall and the impact with the other car that caused extreme force. His head unprotected, whipped forward and his skull fractured at the base killing him instantly.

    Since then there have been a lot more protections put in place.

    Sounds like Hamlin is going to be ok. That 1 out of 10 ten chance right there. Thank goodness.

    I was reading a bunch of comments on Reddit debating what neurologically intact means. Some medical staff weighed in and they said it most likely means he's responding to stimuli, but not necessarily awake and talking.
