I know who made dale earnhardt lose control and hit the wall

Autopsy report basically states that the initial impact twisted his body to the right, turning his head to the right. Then the wall impact sent him forward, the 1 part of the lap belt sheared which allowed him to fling forward a bit farther, the back right of his head hit the right side of the steering wheel and thats what did him in. The wall impact dropped his total speed by around 44mph, or 70kph. Failed belt and a very unfortunate series of events But like others have said, this mans last moments were watching his team/son winning this race. He built himself a damn good legacy and made many people so excited. We all go eventually and instead of just passing out alone in an apartment, he died going 170mph watching his family win a race. What a man.

It was the basilar skull fracture that killed him. He wasn’t wearing the HANS device and the impact through him forward with a sudden stop causing the basilar skull fracture, killing him instantly

@sacr3

Жыл бұрын

@@sams.358 Yes and no, it was combined with the twisting of the vehicle, the failed lapbelt and the hans device that contributed to his death. If the lap belt didn't fail, his head wouldn't have twisted and struck the edge of the wheel as it did. It was a 44mph deceleration, people in cars have accidents at these speeds all the time and very rarely suffer a basal skull fracture. Hence why it was the set of circumstances combined with a failed belt, that allowed his body to contort the way it did and strike the wheel the way it did. A hans device may have helped, no kidding, but it would be interesting to see how an individual comes out of an accident when their head is held back as their torso lunges forward.

Watch in slow mo...u see Dale was headed for a hit on wall with right side of his car. After Sterling nudge he might tried to save it for a second which sent him back on track going towards wall in an angle but the Wallace nudge is the one who sent him into the death angle. If only Kenny was like 000.2 seconds ahead of original spot he would saved Dale from going into the wall like he did but instead his position made it worse.

I had the WONDERFUL PLEASURE of meeting this Legend at 12 years old. And I will never forget that day as long as I live. My dad was actually friends with a few people from NASCAR and we were at a friend's business and there was a 4X4 Black Silverado parked and I think he was actually waiting for someone. And I was actually a huge fan of his. So the guy who owned the business told me to go knock on the window of the truck and tell him I liked the truck. So I did. And then the window started coming down and I was able to see the Black tinted Aviator sunglasses and the mustache. And he smiled at me and said I like that hat boy. I was ABSOLUTELY STAR STRUCK AND I HONESTLY COULDN'T EVEN SPEAK.

I was watching that race. Dale was my favorite driver, and to this day he still is. I always drove his car in the Sierra NASCAR Series and still have all of them up to 2004 release. He'll always be The Intimidator, The Best...

What most people don’t know is that Kenny knew that dale was dead he just didn’t wanna be the one to tell Micheal Waltrip and everyone else. The image of seeing dale lifeless in his car has never left him to this day. That has to be traumatizing

I fell into a squat position and said you're lying. She said check the news. I couldn't stop crying. I happened to be at the gym on a treadmill when they were televising his memorial. I had to stop and I cried again in front of dozens of people. I will never forget that day.

My dad was actually friends with so many of the different drivers. And I will never as long as I live forget the first time I got the chance to meet Dale. I was actually 12. And I had my #3 hat on. We were at a friend's of my dad's. And there was a 4X4 Black Silverado with tinted windows. And the guy who owned the business told me to go knock on the window of the truck and tell him I liked his truck. He rolled the window down and I only saw the black Aviator sunglasses and the mustache and then he actually smiled at me and said. Boy I like that hat

I remember watching this race.. I loved this man he was my number 1 racer... he died doing something he loved.. R.I.P to the best race car legend ever

Back when I was very young, I remember meeting Senior.. what a guy man... what a guy... My dad was a chassis fabricator and master welder working with a few teams and building/setups for cars. I've met many drivers over those years, but I'll never meet a man like Dale. That man was so... manly.. yet loving.. intimidating.. yet... sweet and kind to anyone. We all lost a part of the world that was good, not just NASCAR. Too this day, I have a massive amount of love for the Earnhardt family.

Dale with his cheesy mustache above his big old grin. Miss you, Sir! Forever!!😢💔

He went doing what he loved. Bless his family and friends. A legend of the time. RIP 21 years later and I still shed tears.

Dale's passing doing what he loved, as a result, he has saved soo many lives. In the way he passed, safety changes were made, and the wrecks we have seen today that are much more violent, the drivers survived in part by the neck brace. Intimidator forever!

I’ve lived in Concord for a few years. I’ll admit that all I knew of the Charlotte Motor Speedway was the mad crazy traffic that it brought whenever races were held there. Now I see why. Now I see why Dale Earnhardt is so revered, not only in Cabarrus County NC , but in the entire country. LEGENDARY. ICONIC. PHENOMENAL. God bless him and his family. I look forward to learning more about NASCAR and Dale Earnhardt’s legacy. Got this Brooklyn girl all choked up. Awesome!

That was bad

3:49 Darryl Waltrip has it wrong. Schrader's impact on Earnhardt did not jolt Earnhardt's head sideways. What Schrader's car did was (so very unfotunately) collide with Earnhardt's car to point it more directly into the wall. For years I've been saying that was a KEY FACTOR as to why Dale hit the wall so hard. Not necessarily because of Marlin's bump at the outset. And because of his great skill, Dale was actually going to correct himself enough NOT to hit the wall so directly. But the second unfortunate bump from Schrader's car (no fault of Schrader) took that away 2:07. So sad.....So sad.

You’re right, you can clearly see Dale steering in a way so that he wouldn’t go head on into the wall and instead just wall ride it. But then he bumps Schrader and all of sudden his car clearly gets turned head on into the wall. But it definitely ain’t Ken’s fault.

20 years ago we watched this fateful race, I can still remember exactly where I was and what I was Eating/Drinking as this happened.

My mother first stumbled upon this sport 33 years ago, but she didn’t fully watched it until ‘92, and she became a big Dale fan. While Dale crashed in ‘01, she said it was the worst accident that she had witness, even though it didn’t seemed that bad of a wreck, but it claimed the life of her favorite driver. Today she hasn’t watched a full race since 2017, and as of currently her favorite driver is Kevin Harvick, and I bet Dale will still be her all-time favorite for many years to come. RIP Dale.

I was there in person and ive never felt like i wanted to cry in my life until that day

I watched the race live. I remember it like it was yesterday. I year later I remember being at the track and being on turn 4. Honestly i can't explain the feeling of being right there. Just a million thoughts.

“OOOO! Big trouble! Big wreck behind them!” gave me the chills..

That last lap still sends chills down my spine coming out of turn 4.

I still cry and get tears in my eyes when they are talking about dale Earnhardt sr

2:51, this is the moment that always gets me When the the realization REALLY hits

"Dale was superman,,, we thought he'd never get hurt...". No mortal man is invincible and if he ever thinks he is or others do,,, he is soon humbled in a terribly harsh way. It then serves as a hard reminder to everyone that we are all ultimately small and fragile. He got reckless out there and really tempted fate and fate answered. He was a great racer though. RIP.

Dale jr was my dads favorite driver I wasn’t born yet but when I was 4 he in 2011 I could almost fell how dale jr felt seeing that rip dale

I remember that day like it was yesterday. I was glued to the TV waiting for Mike Helton's words after the race. No one cared that Mike Waltrip won, that Jr. came in second. We just wanted to know about Dale... although we kinda "Knew" what was coming... The fact that There WAS no word for a long time spoke volumes that day...and even when Mike Helton announced it, I couldn't believe it could happen to him.... My question, like everyone else's was, "What's going to happen to Nascar?" It all changed in a Heartbeat. I'll always feel Dale WON that race for the Boys that day. Had he not held up "The Pack" they might not have won.. Not saying he intended to wreck. Just that he kept the field out of contention for the last turn Insuring Mike's win... Like it was said though, it was the "First" race that Dale was not racing to Win, but instead to Block the rest of the field so that Mikey or Jr. would....His plan worked to a "T"... Maybe if he'd raced to win he might still be here today... A lot of other Driver's said that Dale would loosen his belts sometimes before the checkered flags. He may have thought that they had "it" won and so he loosened them up to ease it in at 3rd place. Then it all went wrong...smh.

20 yrs this Feb. It's one of those times you remember exactly where you were when you heard the news. I wasn't a big NASCAR fan, but if you enjoyed most sports you knew who Dale was and you knew what he meant to his fans. Sad day!
