yea thats a bad one
he was dead before he hit the ground
transected his aorta

Flight is that something you can see from this vid :? You sure the guys dead, im not arguing he looks it im just asking.
Is there any information on how it happened :?


What does transected aorta mean :? Just asking cause i dont know :eek:

yea he's dead, if he had had 2 seconds of life when he hit he would have pulled his arm's down even if they were broke & dropped his leg down.
looks like that camera was rolling w/in 2 min. @ the most, more like <1min, by looking @ the antifreeze running down the road...
about 15% of all deaths following motor vehicle collisions are due to injury to the thoracic aorta. Many of these patients are dead at scene
from complete aortic transection.
from the blood coming out of mouth & nose he also tore his tracheobronchial (lung tube)
here is a partial tear:

the aorta is about the size of your thumb & under high pressure, its basically hanging in your chest by a few ligaments, when your going real fast
then stop all the organs are still going as fast as you just were, that ligament trys to keep the aorta in place & tears it...http://www.jvascbr.com.br/03-02-03/03-02-03-197/fig01.jpg

similar to an aortic aneurysm, which you may have heard of happening spontaneously, w/out trauma
those people are weird to work on, because they die. you know they are going to die they know there going to die.
I have had that non-verbal communication eye to eye, then they die, its weird, you dont forget it. A lot will die on the surgery table.
heres them working on one

you asked...

I too felt he was dead by the way his leg was positioned :eek:
Nice to have our own in house medical expert. Thanks for the info Medic.
His riding buds seemed unaffected by the death of their fellow rider. They had their backs turned to him and did'nt even pull a bike up to him to shield his body from any cars that might have come across the accident scene. I just don't get the thought process of some people. I know he's dead, but have some respect for the shell he left behind. They seemed more concerned with kicking debris off the roadway :cry:

Anyone want to take a guess at how fast he was going when he hit the car and done that much damage. Im guessing triple digits but him and the bike must of went straight up into the air then come down where they lay cause the debris scene should of been spread out a lot further.

Im thinking around 120mph :eek:

Yeah, Nobody was even standing with him. Even if he's dead you should at least, stand by your friend. And again you dont let everyone that drives by look at the body laying there on the ground? Also it sure took the medics a while the video was six or seven minutes, and they still were not there, and it looked like a pretty populated area, due to the traffic that was in the area.



bdlstyle

people never know how to respond to something like that
that looked like a pretty normal response,
there all pretty freaked & don't know what to do
if course there isn't really anything to do
we have 8min to respond to something like that & that is w/in the city
that looked like it was outside of Hungry somewhere
every min does seam like an eternity,
people always ask what the hell took so long

Its awful nice having you here flight to ejumakae us. So I guess he ruptured his aorta on impact.
What do you think his impact speed was?

I dont know, he really tore up that car & his bike.
I was kinda surprised his limbs weren't more disfigured
I bet his pelvis was shattered as well,
the leathers probably help keep everything in somewhat of alignment
you were right about the debris & him not really that spread out
if I had to guess I would say your 120 is a good one
if there is any cops/troopers out there they could make a better guess
I would be interested in knowing as well
