Tribute to Edwin Fernandez

*Edit* - I had to remove the music from this video because Greenday apparently won't let me use the song on this tribute. What a heartless band.

The original video featured "Time of Your Life" by Greenday with the orginal audio from the newsclips of NY1.
This is a video tribute to the memory of Edwin Fernandez, a very close friend of mine who died a premature and tragic death on April 16th, 2006 in a supposed drag race. Edwin, i'm still upset with you and i don't know when i'm gonna forgive you, but i know you had a passion for racing and if there is a heaven, i know you're there right now. Everyone misses you and will never forget you. I hope your death is not in vain, in that people will take a lesson from this and see how dangerous racing is. Well this is "Davey" as you always call me signing off. Rest in Peace my brother.

I read the description, and I'm really sorry about your friend, but I now have to change my view on greenday. That's disgusting. Not letting you use a song on a video dedicated to a fallen friend? Unbelievable.

@fanfam you'r angry but you should understand that for most men you never feel really alive until your about to die, a real man needs adrenaline to course through their veins, its what nature intended,

You can't turn up to a drag strip at 10pm and race but you can on the street and no street racer wants to kill anyone, even themselves but sadly due to inexperience that sometimes happens and is sad for both parties involved.

I don't know ED but I lost a lot of homies in the racing scene so I got smart and left it behind now I just drive slow and low (lowrider) but I still have the passion for the racing but we have lost so many friends, cousins, brothers,sister I think we all should learn from the mistakes if you wanna race is fine but let's race at the track were we know at least there help right away R.I.P homie I know you r up there right know racing in heaven giving them a run for there money in another note lo

@fanfam

this video has become that's become like a memorial to the victims and family that knew edwin and here you come giving your two cents like anyone cares to hear it. First of all you don't know that he killed anyone else in the crash and secondly how would you like it if someone came under presumption and pissed on your grave? Stop leaving reckless comments because you're no different than the people you preach against. I don't like street racing any more than you but that's disrespectful
