      Lugeing is an awesome sport, but also very dangerous. This would be like saying professional stuntman gets injured doing stunt. It kinda comes with the job. Still, I send my condolences to his family.

        Just sucks. Although I am not a huge Luge fan, I am a fan of sliding in general. Watched the entire Women's World cup season in Skeleton this year.

        Just sucks.

          Don't mean to sound cold hearted, I'm a daredevil myself, but when your on an ice cream scoop moving at highway speeds shit can happen. What amazes me is the fact they've been doing this how many years and this is the first death I can think of. It's still one hell've a shock, and my heart goes out to his family. But he was following his dream.

            Whoever designed that track is retarded. Anyone that drives knows the danger in putting immovable objects so close to the edge.
