In this context the use of "Should have" refers to the severity of the incident, being so severe by all odds he 'Should' have died, how ever he defied those odds be it by luck or training/ saftey engineering. so yes should have is the correct term and correctly relays the severity of the crash

As someone who doesn’t speak English regularly, I understood the title perfectly and it baffles me how people who actively speak this language can’t understand that « should have » means he survives against all odds instead of a simple opinion the creator has. Learn to speak English before leashing out all your hate on someone with a great storytelling and a well built video.

I agree with your comment. It is also interesting, because the word >should< is obviously not used to imply that it would have been justified. It is like you say, that the term to a foreign speaker is similiar to the meaning of the word "mustn't". However even with a different definition the phrase could be read as a comment on how all the factors of the situation seemingly conspired against the driver, therefore making it a causality. In this way it is a different context, where in the importance of the person is not as high because of the purely chaotic nature of the crash. However the writer of the phrase might use it, because he sees himself as different from the driver, or better, or as purely a customer who has no interest in personal issues of the drivers or the theoretical possibilty of a human being hurt in the process of racing. The interesting thing here is, that not only this is a personality trait, it is also objectivly correct to see it this way, bevcause almost no one watching the race has a real insight into the human component of it. So even though almost no one might agree with it, it would be politicaly correct and just a madder of opinion, because the driver needs to protect himself and not act thoughtless.

@RedbullfanforLife yeah my bad I meant the track was modified in 2021
All the safety gear Fernando was wearing , that which was built into the car and that absorbing material in and on the track, helped to save Fernando's life. But the key thing here was the car was moving throughout the entire accident. Each motion expended terrible forces that could have been transmitted to Fernandos body and brain. I saw it happen, as did millions of other fans did, live on tv and was astonished he was okay. Robert Kubica's amazing crash at Canada stands out as one of the worst crashes with no real injuries in Formula One. In that case, there was a massive impact but the car never stopped, saving Robert's life. At the end of that accident, his feet were dangling out of the front of the car, incredibly...undamaged. And, of course, Romain Grosjean's car, stabbing it's way through a guardrail at over 140 miles per hour, while Romain still kept his head on his shoulders, thanks to the Halo device, ranks as one of the most horrific survived accidents in racing history. After many agonizing seconds, Romain's ghostly shadow, walking quickly through the flames, is a very welcome vision, I will never forget. All thanks to those who died before and those who determined that no more would die like they did. Thank you to all the people who saved these drivers lives and continue to do so today.

I remember Sophia Floersch as well. Of course not an F1 crash, but given she is german and currently basically the best female formula driver (driving F3 again now). If I didnt know she survived and was racing again I would have 100% said the person there died. It was in Macao 2018, basically at full speed flying into a catch fence.

Alonso was protected by angels. The first tests of the halo were carried out in 2016 and in July 2017. Since the 2018 season the FIA has made the halo mandatory on every vehicle in Formula 1, Formula 2, Formula 3, Formula Regional, Formula E and also Formula 4 as a new safety measure.
Oddly specific and well timed. I remember watching this live. At the time I thought two things which were, this isn’t going to be good and that camera shot was insane. Now imagine crashing and ending up on your side in the middle of a live race track.

Anyone with 2 braincells SHOULD understand what he means in the title.
It hurts my brain when i hear the 2015-16 engines right after hearing something from 2012
I've had 2 pneumothorax, that shot is very very painful. For him to he racing a few weeks later was crazy for me!
Love this Video BTW. Sharing where I can!
This was absolutely terrifying to watch I thought Fernando was dead when the car stopped moving it was an overwhelming feeling of relief to see Fernando out of the car and moving. This is one of those incidents that shows no matter safe the sport and cars are made racing will always be extremely dangerous.
Great video as always!
At that period of time it wasn't often that I set an alarm clock for the Melbourne's race, but that year, I've seen that crash live. Absolutely insane and I was in shock and in fear for Alonso's life!
I remember this really well when I was watching it, just the sheer shunt of the incident made me scared and seeing him out of the car was a massive relief, the way his car got to that point violently only made it worse, when I see him race now, am happy for him since that kind of force and shunt was real scary
I was in the stand that day right where he finished up. It all happened too quickly to comprehend. All of a sudden there was a cloud of gravel. Luckily he was quick to get out, to a large round of applause. I did get some cool shots of the damaged cars though.
I remember seeing this live and it was incredible he walked away. I couldn’t even see where the car was at first
What a legend to come out of this and recover so quick, i wish he gets to win champion again!. Nice job by the way, its totaly better than netflix how are you not hired to do the job properly 🏎🏎❤❤❤
He crawled out of a crumpled piece of metal. Incredible
This and the Robert Kubica's crash in Montreal are some of the worst pre-halo crashes I've seen. it's a miracle both survived.
Martin Brundle had a similar accident when he drove for Jordan. In fact, there's been several big crashes at turn 3, Albert Park.
people out here not understanding the title and just shitting on the guy
Bro looks like Jesus on the cross in that thumbnail
nuh uh
The more I learn about Alonso, the higher he goes on my list of favorite drivers!!! Alonso is I believe the most conscious awareness of racing, racing tactics, his ability to recover his coffin and regain control from where others thought it impossible to recover. NOT SURE THE. ORRECT TERM BUT I WILL CALL IT TRACK AWARENESS. He is playing CHESS where others playing tic tac toe. He can extract the most out of any car on any track. I believe that he should be I. The category of GOAT even though he is not I. The top 5 today. Being able to drive and perform in F1. For as long as he has without significant deterioration of reflexes. I hope Alonso, Is able to race for as long as he is competitive enough. Then he would make probably THE. BEST ENGINEER F1 has seen.( already able to change n control outcome of race by slowing g down, or towing other people.). He is able to see the big picture almost all the time. In truth the more I learn about individual drivers the more I like them. Like Norris, tsunodA, and thr. A or one HAMILTON. In the past Hamilton was my least favorite driver. I saw and still see him taking people out of race(front tire bump) and making it seem an accident or circumstance of turn.( Verstappen wallcrash at 51g.) saying he turned into him, Not even asking how he was for about a minute. Just didn’t like him at all. However since he has fallen and more I learn about him as a person the more I am cheering for him. Even being anointed a knight. He is Sir Lewis Hamilton. He has a life outside F1 that does not deal with racing?plays guitar and many other hobbies.
Amazing video. Really loved it. The story telling is up to the mark. The words, the hype being created and the script are all crisp. Keep on the good work. You gained a subscriber ❤️
Bro I remember this my heart dropped
To walk away. My God. No halo either. Fernando: buy a lotto ticket asap.
I really wish you would have shown a clip of the full crash, either the animated one or the real one. every time you showed the crash, it would get cut off, and it was never once fully shown.
Alonso to Gutierrez: Why are you crying, did anyone die?
Talk about creating a drama for tha sake of a video full of hot air.
What is the crash at 12:11 the one with the green car. It looks like the driver underneath is beheaded (he probably isnt but where did his head go)
I never write comments but change the title that "should" is not a good word for any human been, more for Fernando he is an awesome person.
Obviously never seen Martin Brundle's Melbourne Lap 1 shunt. Same track, same corner, made this one look SMALL. Car ended up in two pieces, Brundle took the restart...

Because it was a crazy crash and a quasi miracle that he survived.
Incredibly same kind of accident Jacques Villeneuve had with Ralf Schumacher at that same track and at the same place 15 years earlier. The difference was that Villeneuves crash was much worse. When canadian hit with his BAR-Honda in to Schumachers BMW Williams, there was higher speed and Villeneuves car lifted up to air immediately. It went totally in peaces when it ended up in to wall, minus the cockpit, and one of the track marsahlas got killed by the tire of Villeneuves car.
Alonso won't die until he's got his third title. He's that dedicated and tenacious! Though against Max, I'm not sure he'll manage.
“Altered the result in of the race”….. hmmmm💭
Looking back at things Ron Dennis sure wasn't wrong, no other team has won a constructor that didn't have a factory deal. The only team that came 2nd that didn't have a full works deal was RBR. Presently, only factory teams still finishing 2nd and with a cost cap. They still can't flush out the usual suspects.
He had another crash on his rookie year with Renault 2003 that was even worse than this
This also reminds me of Kubica's terrible crash in Canada...
imagine if drive to survive was a thing then, they would've milked this moment dry
11:00 Casually dropped the hardest quote
this can't even compare to Romain Grosjean's 2020 "burning man" crash
Using the Ferrari logo when talking about a Haas Ferrari, Ferrari is just the engine, the team was Haas, you didn't show a Honda logo for Alonso's car and call it a McLaren Honda
Correct me if im wrong but these quotes from several people really sound like ai
Everyone saying that have “should” in the title is wrong. At that time it was a very unlikely to survive a crash like that. So at the time of the race yes he should have died but he somehow managed to survive
Would love to see a review of Roman Grosjean's 93g crash

Nvm I found it, you already have
I don't think there was any way Alonso could have passed the other car cleanly with that right turn coming up so quickly. If Alonso was able to get past the other car, I think he would have been carrying too much speed and caught his left tires in the gravel and gone into the barricade regardless. Also, I hated the look of those tiny, high rear wings on the cars from that short era.
Esteban made a fan out of me for his concern about Fernando. That's how drivers should act after an accident

Very similar to Brundles accident at the same corner in 1996
Yep, Alonso almost definitely should have died. However, his car and the way it was constructed, definitely saved his life, that and quite a bit of luck on his part. The fact that Alonso was able to get out of what was left of the car and physically walk unaided to the medical transport is a small miracle in and of itself.

09:03 this is just simply wrong and sensationalism. In the broadcast, the broadcast cut to Gutierrez' car after the crash happend. Only the Haas car was shown. When they shortly after cut to the helicopter camera, you just now could see that the McLaren was involved. Alonso was then already visibly getting out of the crashed car.
Great video again mate!
The clips you have chosen throughout this video are shocking.
You have a bit of Austrian GP footage in the video XD
I’ll be honest, that video should have been half that length. Please don’t waste everyone’s time. 👎

Should…bro he’s so good bro
what about his crash in testing at barcelona that left him unconcious for a decent while and hospitalized? McLaren still hasn't told the truth but it is likely that he was ELECTROCUTED while driving. I feel like that was even more dangerous, as during a crash you need to be ready for impact and get your hands off the wheel. If you are unconcious, you can't do any of this...

2016 wasn't the best for Alonso crash wise
His crash probably saved the lives of Shou and Grosjean, and maybe also Hamilton.
People get in severe car accidents all the time and say “I should have died”. How do so many of you have such a poor grasp of the English language? It’s not a “wish death on Fernando” statement, for the love of god. It’s a “that accident was beyond bad enough to cause death, and therefore Fernando cheated death, and according to logic “should” have not survived the damage of that crash. How is this so difficult to understand?
