I was curious about that too.

Another thing I was wondering...it looks like he landed on his face. If he cracked C-2 b/c his chin touched his chest...would a helmet possibly make it worse? They save the brain but don't do much for your neck. The weight of a helmet would definitely put more stress on the neck. I just wonder if that extra weight could have caused the vertebra to completely fail. Scary as frick.


Edit: Since I posted the above I looked it up and there actually is an argument about helmet weight and neck injuries.


They make neck braces/collars all the way up to HANS devices to cure this problem in motorsports... Price range between $20-3500.

He should get the $3500. He can def afford it.

On another note, look at this dickhead from AJC tweeting about wanting more pics of Petrino. Talking about karma and shite. He's making fun of someone almost getting killed or paralyzed. I think this is a hell of a lot worse than anything Petrino has ever done. Jeffy is the one who should be worried about karma.
