Michael Schumacher

I'm sure you've all heard already but not he was critically injured in a skiing accident and fighting for his life. Very unfortunate....hope he recovers. He truly is a legend.

Prayers for him and his family. That dude goes 200 mph on a regular basis and gets injured skiing. What a crazy world.

Get well soon Stig.

Hopefully he pulls through. Crazy that this happened even with a helmet on.

Bless him

Anyone hear any updates?

 

[Millennium Falcon]

He's in critical but stable condition still.

 

[lightningjack]

Such a sad accident. Let's hope he pulls through 100%

He turned 45 today and doesn't even know it (still in a coma). Wishing him a full and speedy recovery.

Can't believe that happened. I can't imagine his son having to see that too. I have to point out though, It's a shame he wasn't wearing a helmet - at least that's what it seems looking at the picture. Hopefully this makes people think twice when they decide to hit the slopes without one

He was wearing a helmet actually. I guess he was also wearing a Go-Pro...

Holy shit, he must have hit that rock really hard then

 

[JanK]

Yeah, authorities have the footage.

He's also a racecar driver meaning I'm sure he's already had some serious head trauma before which doesn't help in a situation like this.
