[2ILLWorldProductions]

Is that coming out of the second last chicane?

[JLUnlimited]

I like the guy with the flimsy broom sweeping up ! ! ! LOL . .

[peppecat1]

no ma il carramba che lo tira per un braccio?

[nandovtec]

certo che la sicurezza una volta era un optional...con tutti quei guard-rail cosi vicini a bordo strada... possibile che a nessuno veniva in mente che sarebbero morti tutti quei piloti...sia in F1 che nel Motomondiale...???

[VecioZeBoss93]

Video epico

[1dogeez]

[matteorava]

...il carabiniere gli ha buttato la paletta per fermarlo... Meno male che ha portato le penne a casa. Picchiare contro delle balle di fieno non sarebbe stato il massimo...



[DRAYPRESCOTT58]

These idiots just took off the helmet without any doctor

[Trulyloyale]

@DRAYPRESCOTT58 that was customable in the 70s in all worldwide circuits : think at your germany and hot criminal idiots they looked f.i. at Nurburgring when they left Lauda burning in flames and an Italian driver had to stop his car, work with the estinguisher and carry Lauda off bursting car in place of retarded marshals who were too scared to rescue the austrian .....

You're 50 aged, you're supposed to remember all that .....;-) !!!

[DRAYPRESCOTT58]

@Trulyloyale :

I remember that Lauda crashed in curve at the old "Nordschleife". In this curve were no marshalls located directly, because of the rocks at this location.

All drivers had to block their cars because they could not pass this place. It is no question that all who could did help him out of his car. Otherwise he would have died in his Ferrari.

So what do you remember ?

Just read a bit in wikipedia about Strietzel Stuck´s part in this situation...

[LB1973]

@Trulyloyale It was Arturo Merzario plus Brett Lunger, Harald Ertl and Guy Edwards that got Lauda out. It wasn't that tthe marshalls were scared either its just there wasn't any around at Bergwerk.

[Dazzler59]

@DRAYPRESCOTT58 1st aid in this situation does actually reccomend removing the helmet since the chance of worsening a neck injury are miniscule compared to the risk of death from a blocked airway.

[DRAYPRESCOTT58]

@Dazzler59 :

The removing of the helmet should not be done without a doctor.

Of course a helmet can be removed but not like they did it.

There should have been trained persons at the circuit, not such dilettants.

You can free a blocked airway even without removing the helmet.

[LB1973]

@DRAYPRESCOTT58 You are working off 2011 safety standards and medical practice. In 1974 the idea was to get him out of harms way. btw the guy in the shorts was possibly a marshall, all the guys in the red shirts were. Its not like today where you have onsite marshalls in full fire suits

[SeeItMx246]

R.I.P Marco Simoncelli he was a truly great rider in the making.

20.1.1987- 4.56pm 23.10.2011

[schwarzesschaf1234]

[OtomoTenzi]

@schwarzesschaf1234

Yeargh, without any knowledge that they might be already injured... : P

[schwarzesschaf1234]

@OtomoTenzi

of course that´s damn right buddy

[MrOwnr1]

Racing suit

[notwocdivad]

Jeez Hope he didn't injure his back or neck in the crash those guys would paralyse the poor bloke. Total bloody waste of space those guys, Where were the flag marshals in all this? What a load of bollocks

[neochase1]

wow. This reminds me of american health care !

[doctorwhoshow]

why is the marshell half naked

[manero170869]

@doctorwhoshow No marshells, just volunteers and one carabiniere (police officer). ;-)

[doctorwhoshow]

@manero170869 thanks

[RedhotIta1]

non ho mai pensato che in uscita ci fosse stato un incidente così... va beh... Incidente = morto ai tempo.

[pmay222]

if he was wearing todays modern back protector and armour...he would have got up from that no prob..!

[skizzo19761]

THAT GUY that jump IS A FUCKING homo...

[Tayuk]

@skizzo19761 And you are an idiot.. Your point?

[skizzo19761]

@Tayuk my point??? no point dude just a comment the guy looks fucking guy to me that's all!

[Tayuk]

@skizzo19761 My bad, I thought you were commenting from a position of knowledge.

[iXhermitXi]

im no docotor but im pretty sure your not ment to take his helmet of, or move him at all to prevent further injury..

[warp65]

Looks like Phil Reid on the MV opening shot, never seen that footage before.

[XxCedDragoNxX]

dont worry he was saved by a guy wearing noting but underwear

[RoughTemptation]

@XxCedDragoNxX I guess sometimes one has to laugh even in the worst moments! I'm so sorry, but your comment made me laugh and I thank you for that. I feel really sorry for this guy and I'm so happy he's still alive, but I couldn't help laughing!

Anyway, today's a sad day... R..I.P. Marco.

[ImChapperz]

@XxCedDragoNxX Super man <3

[MCXpress]

@XxCedDragoNxX  LOL :D

[CELEBICI3]

thank god for air fences

[Ad1T]

skool of hard ROCK beibi!!!Like this

[spike6819]

broken neck sir? no problem...

[Redline748]

No slow down flags? just drag the poor bloke out of the way? my god!

[Tayuk]

@Redline748 1974, where men were men!! and it seems track officials wore only erm underpants.

[Trulyloyale]

@Redline748 as said in the title , safety was so different from today and in 1974 no circuit used slow down flags or other safety tools ....!! Just look at the USA : they're probably the most arrear country in the world in motor racing , even today they have as same safety as 40 years ago , they're stuck in the 1960s .....!! ;-)

[Redline748]

@Trulyloyale yeah I understand just still a bit amazing to see it

[jraybay]

his ok?

[manolobortulen]

yes, now is a truck driver: mimmo cazzaniga from genova, italy.

[KACIARO]

che moto e' una kawasaki 500???o paton??

[manolobortulen]

kawa500 dell'importatore abbo di genova.

[bravo3000pirate]

than it was GP500, not motogp

[manolobortulen]

mimmo cazzaniga da genova: ora fa il camionista!

[gabryjoint]

quando è a terra con la mano dx sembra ke faccia il gesto di accellerare.... ma com'è andata??? sopravvisuto??

[manolobortulen]

hai indovinato!! bravo, non è facile! la curva pero' è la tosa e non la rivazza come ho scritto. quell'anno sheene cadde alla rivazza e al pronto soccorso era vicino a cazzaniga!

[supertallo]

Mi spiace ma non posso esserti d'aiuto. So solo che si tratta del GP delle Nazioni del 19/5/74. Ci vorrebbe l'elenco degli iscritti (mi pare che abbia il #14).

[manolobortulen]

in effetti hai ragione! ricordo che sheene cadde alla variante bassa e forse il fotografo si riferishe a quella caduta...infatti i due piloti s ritrovarono vicini di barella al pronto soccorso! tu sai come si chiama il pilota del filmato? era di genova e ora fa il camionista!

[supertallo]

Probabilmente ti è stato riferito male dal pilota o ricordi male. Se fosse la Rivazza si vedrebbe il muro di cinta dell'autodromo (vedi minuto 5'11" della terza parte del tuo filmato sulla 200 miglia 1973). Anche la luce del sole è quella tipica del tardo pomeriggio alla Tosa. Quella è inequivocabilmente la Tosa. Il fotografo che si fa cacciare è invece all'ingresso della variante bassa come dici tu.

[manolobortulen]

sono sicuro al centopercento: uscita rivazza e ingresso variante bassa.

[supertallo]

It's the exit from Tosa, it's not Rivazza.

[ilchinca]

bene dai, però, certo che ne sono stati fatti tanti di progressi da allora, però le moto di quei tempi erano veramente "pure" e spettacolari!!

lamps

[manolobortulen]

the riders is ok and now is a truck driver!!!
