Monster Truck Accident


If you have not watched my YouTube video on this following video I would encourage to do that first. The image in the following video is quite disturbing. I fought with my morals putting this video however I've decided that it's something I think if people want to see to gain a better appreciation of life then I'm somewhat obligated. This video sure has gripped my innermost being, and showed me how amazingly precious and fragile life is.

well, yes, it's a tragedy. but i've always wondered what the attraction of this activity is. i suppose there is one, but it escapes me.

I to witnessed a bad accident at on off road event. No guard rails were in place to protect people on the sides, just chicken wire. One truck ran by himself and his drive-shalf broke. He lost control and went into the crowd where he killed four people. It was like a scene for a horror movie. I am a EMT so I went to help because there was no medical vehicles on site. I have never seen something so bad in my life.

i agree that this was a tragedy, i have been to many monster truck shows and have never seen anybody get hurt except for one of the drivers who broke his arm. this guy was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. this has been the 2nd death at a monster truck show within a month, both with innocent victims

Why on earth would you walk in front of any vehicle? I find it hard to believe this guy didn't notice it coming.

It's really sad, but also disturbing. Critical question - who really goes in the middle of of a monster truck arena, not noticing what's going around?

They were both human.... and we all make mistakes... hockey, football, racing, snow boarding, even a carnival ride... no activity is going to be 100 percent safe.. And it caught your attention, whether good or bad... Don't blame this tragedy on the sport... cause it can happen anytime, anywhere... Sister will never be back from the store because boyfriend hit a big rig... that doesn't mean take the big rig off the road. It means all parties should pay more attention to what they do with their lives and other lives!!!!

just to let you all know... the earphones the officials wear are noise cancelling... point 2... He was looking a different direction... the rii was ingaged but didnot shut the truck down in time... 3rd point... the driver did not see him intime regardless if he had ingaged the breaks he still would have connected with the truck. yes it is desturbing, it is sad and everyone at the event on staff is saddened that this happened... but as the saying goes we live and learn... the world of racing is an ever evolving community.
