Richard Hammond in 280mph Car Crash
« on: September 21, 2006, 04:35:29 PM »
One of the UK's favourite TV personalities was seriously injured, reportedly trying to break the land speed record.

Richard was famous for his work on Top Gear and Brainiac: Science Abuse.

Does anyone else think this is reminiscent of Steve Irwin's accident, ie; seriously injured doing the job that he loves, whilst being filmed. Let's hope (touch wood) that it doesn't end the same way (no I am not implying there was a stingray in the car before anyone jokes about this).

Frankly, I'm shocked. But, even more frankly, I'm always shocked.

The actual conspiracy is to discredit the safety of cameras. It's been empiraclly proven that cameras provide the ulitmate protection against any sort of accident. You can do anything and as long as it gets caught on film--you will be safe. Thus, everything should be filmed as that would make the world completely safe.

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)
