Schumacher seriously injured

Your guess is pretty amazing

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

BBC reports that's exactly what happened, he WAS wearing a helmet and he hit his head on a rock whilst falling
 
Hate to see accidents on the slopes, I have seen someone be air lifted off in a stretcher before too

The response & care centers are top class around the Alpes, they get to people very fast -even though he was apparently off piste at the time they were with him within a few minutes (according to reports)

I'm sure he is in the best of hands

In Acoma and has brain bleed... Was operated on and the next 2 weeks are critical...Wishing him and his family all the best for a good speedy recovery.
 
I hope he recovers soon. I had a cousin that suffered a similar accident with very similar consequences. Fortunately he fully recovered although it was long recovery since he suffered amnesia and other brain damage. It is typical that some epilepsy might remain from the accident. I think Michael is a strong person that will fight for living. I pray for him.

Hmm what an irony.
When he was racing these last years after his championships, I used to shout to the tv COMMON MICHAEL GET OUT OF THERE, WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT!
But, he just couldnt get away from his adrenalin dose it seems :(
Hope he pulls this through.
 
Gary Hartstein posted an update, his interpretation of the press conference a few hours ago:

"First off, this press conference was rather more reassuring than what I expected. I’ll admit that I feared an announcement of a second operation for persistently elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), and the fact that that’s not been needed is good."

Schumi is still in critical condition. The next 48 hours will be vital.

C'mon Schumi, pull through mate.

I met him quite a few times back in Adelaide, both prior to being World Champion and after being a double World Champion. He stopped, gave me lots of time and we had a chat. One chat was only a few hours before the 1994 race, just after the warm-up. Other much lesser talented drivers were blunt rude, but Schumi not only stopped to chat but was super friendly.
 
I went to the CHU, and if one thing to do, not trust anything that isn't from official conference.

The guy from the Bild was looking to go inside the hospital "to see somebody" sunday night, with a photo reporter.
There were the guys spying the helicopters all days long, on what was a very hard day of work for the emergency service.
Today Sabine Kehm said that one journalist has tried to go inside the bloc where Michael is...

About the accident, there were a lot of talks, we will know in time how everything went, but it seems he was really unlucky.

The guy is in good hands, probably one of the best place of the world for that kind of problem, he's fighting hard, and it's better to not have news report before tomorrow morning or later, that would mean everything is going, slowly, on the good direction.

If this is true then it is really a shame! How deep must a human fall to do something like this ? Very sad .

Agreed. This is a shame. How come someone could be so disrespectful and insensitive to him and his family in a so delicate situation?
But this is a rhetorical question, this reporter is a prick but unfortunately this moron was trying to satisfies morbid, disrespectful desires of a good part of our society.

I feel sad for both.
