[sparfunk]

RIP - this is a really sad video :(

[MadisonCutlass44057]

He will be missed. RIP. :(

[catstalker1]

Maybe he hit a hole in the road, then him fly through the air with the greatest of ease.

[rovilsonalcarde]

e o risco que se corre na yndy infelizmente que deus o tenha em bom lugar uma pena............

[Ktonrider]

Wrong cars on the wrong track. Nuff said.

[SwedishG2]

ohoooo

[ALLRacingTV]

Right at 2:02 you can see where the car gets hung in the fence and really slows the car down a lot. RIP Dan

[1995Yoyoman]

lame go get a real camera...loser

[th3l4dy]

@1995Yoyoman fuck off you filthy troll

[1995Yoyoman]

@th3l4dy lmao ur mad

[rohanjones100]

which one was dans car?

[Ziklos2]

@rohanjones100 Pause at 0.05 and you see 2 red cars, behind them is 2 green ones next to each other, Dan was in the Brown one behind those cars. A little later you see him crashing into the car infront of him and go flying through the air and exploding as he hits the wall.

[Uoyabrox]

@Ziklos2 Dans car didnt explode he is in the black 77 verizon car. he hits the wall the car that flew in the airfirst exploded when it hit the wall. i would know i was there Rest in peace

[Uoyabrox]

@Ziklos2 check that wrong sponsors my bad but his car was the second airborn

God is a mushroom, read a book. christianity formed from a sex and mushroom cult. Read the sacred mushroom and the cross.

[I3adkin]

Shit.. I was watching this and i was like ''fuck..'' R.I.P Dan

[josephine938]

Someone has High Definition T.V....

[EpixXHD1]

can't see the attraction of this so called racing-sooooo boring going round in a circle all the time. rip dan.

[RoadRacer54]

@EpixXHD1 its an adrenaline rush going that fast... its like riding a roller coaster that YOU control.

[OUTOFGAS88]

why are people so upset about this dude being killed the way i see it him and everyone else that participate in this sport are asking to be killed or seriously injured.

[kristimetal10]

Racing is still a dangerous sport. R.I.P. Dan

[thedereklee9]

wouldn't they be dishonering him by not finishing the race?

[LxE100]

@thedereklee9 No...

[thedereklee9]

@LxE100 uh i think it's more an honor to finish the thing he loved to do instead of quit...

[haddock4056]

@thedereklee9 wheres the honour in dieing

[farstarfilms]

yeah that wheel and assembly came right down on him and killed him. Poor design should have protection around him.

[ripster8675]

LOL.... U PLAY WITH FIRE, U GET BURNED... LULZ

[DickLodge68]

@ripster8675 LOL??? WTF is wrong with you? This is a dangerous sport. Wheldon died today and you make a joke? LOL? You're a just an asshole!

[Polybun]

get a capture card you fucking loser.

[filmsforpeace]

@Polybun LOLOL what is your problem?

The other car was not airborne, Wheldon hit the capture fence first the other just right after.

[Ramubay]

@filmsforpeace 2 cars went airborne, :11 and :15 inside track.

[filmsforpeace]

RIP Mr Wheldon, so tragic a loss. Sad to say, but this is an excellent video. Were two cars airborne--Wheldon & someone else and did they crash mid air before the fence?

[Ramubay]

@filmsforpeace Yes at :11 and :15 inside track.

[velcro62]

RIP Dan Wheldon

[bizfer]

Que triste noticia. Me arruinó lo que era un perfecto fin de semana. Se nos fue un excelente piloto dándolo todo hasta el final.

[HaikuAutomation]

Best video so far I have found with the different angles and clear what caused him to die. Hitting the catch fence at 200+ mph decelerating to 100 or so in a second or less would cause his internal organs to liquify.

[velcro62]

@HaikuAutomation why would they liquify?

[DickLodge68]

@HaikuAutomation Oh, that is the best video you've found of a driver being killed? What a champ, or chump you are! What the fuck is wrong with you?

[THEORIGINALEXSCAPER]

His is the car tumbling @ 1:58 from the middle right to top center. He impacts the catch fence pole at 2:03 bursts into flames then slides down the track. (None of the other uploads showing the wreck show clearly what happened.Thank you for posting this part. Yours is the only upload that shows various replays that I've found.) Its really sad and unfortunate that this happened. RIP Dan.

[THEORIGINALEXSCAPER]

Weldons is the black and white # 77 at the bottom of the racing line near the start of the video

[3ISAMAGICNUMBR]

which car was his?

[patrickryan814]

@WarriorPaxo they didn't kno at the time that he died, I'm sure if they knew that he passed they wouldn't have shown it, and I wish YouTube would take these videos down out of respect to the family and friends of Dan wheldon

[rocker1030]

@patrickryan814 I'd argue someone who lived like this and did this profession would have been happy to go out like that. He wouldn't have wanted to die old and sick in bed. Respect his choice, honor his memory, and console/reach out to his family and friends who nevertheless will be hurting. (then again, this seems more for people who actually knew him, what are the rules for celebrities in their own right?)

[WarriorPaxo]

very sad.. forget the "talent" "good driver" screw the sport dude

that was just that guys job... supporting a family (i suspect i dont know)

and this happens can you imagine what the other drivers involved feel its just horrible man

and what is the delay on these channels and sporting events for if not to edit this shit why is a partial boob such a big deal but death and devastation oh!! we have to show that shit from every angle.. its sick

[squeak1964]

RIP----great talent lost!

[thedknuckles]

Damn shame, RIP...

[MatrixFactoryGuy]

why are hot chick videos linked to this one? good lord..doesn't the world have any respect anymore?

[asgeek]

@MatrixFactoryGuy Its because DaleInSales5 apparently likes comic con girls and watches Indy car racing, he uploaded those videos

[craigandrach]

Some people got no respect. Fools. R.I.P. Dan

[08170813]
