Is there any vid of a fatal crash at Isle of Man? Never seen any footage, being on TBK since 2004


Probably not.

Most likely some will have been caught on tape over the years, but all the telecasts of the races (unless i'm mistaken) have been post-produced, rather than televised live, so naturally no fatal crashes will be shown on something post-produced.

Yes it is a serious question. :p

Sorry for being so straight to the point. I tried searching on youtube and being on TBK, and TT having 230 deaths, when seeing most of the fatal crashes from Indy, Nascar and F1. It was driving me crazy. Racer69 you probably nailed the answer why not, thanks. :thumbsup:

But the lot of videos in this tread already can make you imagine why and how someone can die in this type of race. I haven't seen more than a couple of crashes from TT before either.

Nope, the seagull had a damaged wing and was taken to the RSPCA, but is alive!
