[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don't understand how netting (at 65+ mph) would be a "safety" item.  Anything at that speed is dangerous.[/quote]

That was my thought, too.  It's hard to believe none of the engineers could foresee what would happen if someone hit the net.[/quote]

I hate to write this, but since you've chosen to read this far into the thread. . .  Some have said that he was decapitated by the netting or the metal framing for the netting.  There was blood pooled in the water at the the bottom of the track.[/quote] I've read a few articles on this and none of them and none of the witnesses mentioned that. It's possible that it's just not being reported at this point but all of them said he was laying on they ground and they saw him laying there when the paramedics pulle a white sheet over him. Seems like if he were decapitated they wouldn't have necessarily known it was a boy and the witness statements might have been different. But in definitely not an expert on any of this. [/quote]
