Crass
Disrepectful
Unnacceptable

You absolutely disgust me Brucie - how can you make a flippant comment about a tragedy like this? "A fashion accessory"???? We are not talking about Hermes scarves you muppet

I merely point out that tragic accidents occur no matter how careful one is.But thank you for your comment.

No you don't - you make an unacceptable flippant remark about "fashion accessories" which you clearly mean to refer to helmets which, as was already pointed out, had nothing to do with the story. You don't "merely point out" you appear to be trying to ignite an age old debate on helmets which is long since closed

Other people on here share experience, viewpoints, lively debate etc and I enjoy their banter and their considered views - I sometimes don't agree but I certainly do not believe that I'm always in the right.

Your signature line is the most post ironic thing I have ever seen - you seem to make comments purely for effect and to get a reaction.

Yes I am furious - having seen my wife serioulsy injured in a ski collision then I find your attitude to these tragic events to be, frankly, disgusting

Rant Over

Information on this accident is still pretty sketchy, but several German news sites are now reporting that after colliding sideways with each other at medium-fast speed they then collided with a snow cannon mast, which is thought to have caused their fatal injuries. Sounds to me like they were having a race.

On initial inspection the helmets they were wearing did not display any obvious damage, a closer inspection revealed that one of them was undamaged and the other was very slightly damaged.
