Dan Wheldon Fatal Crash (HD Pics, No Gore, Still Impressive)
Daniel Clive "Dan" Wheldon (22 June 1978 – 16 October 2011) was an English auto racing driver. He was the 2005 Indy Racing League IndyCar Series champion, and winner of the Indianapolis 500 in 2005 and 2011. He resided in St. Petersburg, Florida. Wheldon died of injuries suffered during a racing accident at Las Vegas Motor Speedway At the 2011 IZOD IndyCar Series season finale at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on 16 October 2011, Wheldon was involved in a 15 car pile up during lap 13 of the race resulting in a red flag. Wheldon had to be extricated from his car and was airlifted to a local hospital with what was described as "serious injuries," from which he later died at the age of 33 the 4th picture  talking about airborne for fuck sake.. . That's Wheldon, flying straight towards the security fences which ripped his car apart & probably caused internal bleedings due to the abrupt stop, because other than the walls below, the fence doesn't absorbs impact.

Thanks for the pics! The car in the fourth picture is actually Will Power's car. Dan Wheldon is in the #77 car, not visible in that picture. -Will |
