The accident itself ha sbeen braodcast continuously at high resolution on Dutch tv as recorded b tv cameras. You just see him fly out of the last bend and fly twards a pillar and then see people running over.
There are pictures (stills) of people trying to resuscitate all over the internet. The link K7 posted has both the moving pictures and the stills on it (or at least it did a couple of hours ago)

@Ellorhir yes it wa sluge, but IMO skeleton is moust dangerouse, you ride down whit head forvard, small crusch you're dead, ok skii jump, , alpine sking, yes but there bigger chances survive even many bones be broken,

The song Bryan Adams and Nelly Furtado di was borin indeed but she is one fucking hot chick
Btw that violin stuff was boring as hell as well and also way way way too long, and the same goes for thee tapdancing. The entire show was way too long. It bored me to tears but unfrotuantely had to stay awake cause I didn't know the exact moment the subtitling translation was needed for the poem, the speeches by Furlong & Rogge, and the two Olympic oaths. So I had to sit through the entire ceremony which also ran 30 minutes than it was intended to do.

Well if its be summer its be longer, winter OG ahs no so many nations who march there, I hope Norway get 2 golds this year and they recah 100 gold, Bjerdallen hope he do it hehe and Canada has hosted 2 WOG and non gold, they shood change it this year

i like violins better how Adams song it was to long , they reapite frases ,
