That's not good. He always had a guardian angel, hopefully this time also. Enough athletes had not and died outside their sports.
Yes i've read it some minutes ago. He was shaken by something but was in full awareness and probably even posted himself somewhere. MS don't do that Sh...T. Skieing is not worth the fun with the risk to die as 7 time champion of asphalt on snow.
It doesn't have to be risky...I've been skiing for 28 years and never had a serious injury, and I've done some gnarly stuff here and there. However, I see people skiing above their abilities all the time--people who are clearly 'out of control'. It seems like each year you hear about a race driver injuring himself on the slopes, though. These guys, though, are adrenaline junkies and always have to push the boundaries of what they're capable of. It's their own mindset that gets them in trouble. Plus, there's a LOT more variables when skiing than there are on the track. People do stupid stuff on the slopes that you couldn't get away with on the track--pulling out in front of you, etc; and off the groomed stuff, you never know what's waiting for you under the top layer of snow. Skiing balls-out when there's people around is like trying to drive a F1 car through a city full of traffic.
I was sure I read seriously, must have missed the not, sorry it happens No they have changed it, originally it said he was alone and it was serious, I wasn't being misleading honest!
I know well what you mean, even i don't have any skiing experience, me was a marshal art guy ( over 10 years 7 days training the week ), now i'm starting with Wing Chun with my 40, was an high speed sprinter on 100m reaching limits of low 10 sec. with a age of 15 already, one of the best at everything i did but unfortunately some accidents outside my sport finished my career because i always was searching for adrenaline. I understand him, look at his face when he is doing any sport, he is always max concentrated and focused, no matter what he did as Vettel as well has this bite, me as well had and every champion or candidate has. Just people with this task and talent, her chi can focus are successfull. Training alone does not help and don't makes people without the talent to champions, no matter how hard they try, there is always one better who has the real power. MS is still one of the most powerfull atlets on this world, no matter how good he is at anything different than racing, he always gives his best. Yes this guys are junkies.
let's hope the best for Schumi. news but he always knew, what he is doing. it was his own decision... keep fingers crossed, that he will get well!
http://motorsportstalk.nbcsports.com/2013/12/29/michael-schumacher-injured-in-skiing-accident/ I really, really hope he pulls through...
Just read the latest news, doesn't sounds that good, reminds me to Mika Hakkinen's accident in Adelaide 1995 (i think). Lets hope for the same good outcome.
I snow board a lot , I use top quality helmet (same make as the Olympic teams wear ) I imagine Schumacher uses a top quality helmet also He must have taken a mega blast to the head for this to happen, perhaps losing control and flying through the air head first and landing on his head on a rock Must have knocked him for six, reports are saying he's in a coma right now
