Probe: Luge track didn't cause death at Olympics! Saakashvili dismisses finding!

Luger buried amid new controversy‎

As you know, He was going around a turn known as 50/50 as you stood a 50% chance of making it. He lost control at 90 mph and crashed head first into a pole. When I first wrote this it was breaking news and crushedhe Georgian team was goingto go home. All luge teams are meeting to decide if it is safe to continue on what has been called the worlds fastest course after already 12 crashes.

He was airlifted to a Hospital but efforts to revive him have failed. Olympic luger dies in training crash

I was up at 4:AM this morning and last I heard the entire Olympics was somber and all teams were evaluating whether to compete on this track or not. The remainder of the Georgian Olympic team will compete in his honor but the mood has been set.

The story of Nodar Kumaritashvili Rest in Peace!

If you can watch the actual crash video please do and realize there is no way the accident was his fault. Crash video

So far 12 accidents and that particular turn is known as 50/50. I just watched the footage of the crash, damn! I refuse to believe those braces are like solid steel and right above the run.

This is not after thought only common sense to make it solid steel but anything above the run should just be decoration it serves no functional purpose. That was tragic and senseless!

Saakashvili dismisses luge accident as Kumaritashvili's fault

* I just heard Kumaritashvili's body has arrived home in the Republic of Georgia amidst National mourning for their fallen star!

I heard on MSNBC that just prior to the accident a foil had been put on the track to prevent melting, Nodar was not aware of it and was blinded by the reflection. I have not found a link for the story yet.
