i’ve not much sympathy for these guys when something goes wrong. yeah, they may have families and all that, but it’s not like they aren’t/weren’t aware of the risks.

So very much like someone riding a mountain bike down a hill covered in rocks and roots when they should be sat quietly on the sofa watching the footie then?

I saw a documentary that featured Dwain Weston a year or so ago which kind of showed the footage of him hitting the bridge. The screen went black at the point of impact but the audio stays on. I think it was actually about Jeb Corliss. It showed him (Jeb) afterwards covered in claret. I vowed then never to google it. They spoke to some of the people who were on the bridge when he hit it and given that the documentary was a fair few years after the event you could see they were still very much haunted by it. Dreadful.
