This has always stuck with me. When I was younger I was with my friend and his grandfather for the weekend. We ran into some traffic, the road was closed. The grandfather was so fkn mad about the traffic and the road being closed. I started agreeing with him to it sucked, and i was annoyed. The roads only close like this for fatal accidents, was still young didn't realize this at the time. I get woken up the next morning by my parents, they came to pick me up and bring me to the hospital. The fatal accident that day claimed my best friends life, and nearly took out his entire family. I think that's helped me keep a more observant and open mind towards things and not just look at the immediate affect on myself, but the whole situation overall.

I follow hundreds of car-related channels. I would never question Misha's motivation for posting a video. I have little doubt well over 750,000 followers feel the same.

Yesterday was supposed to be my first time on the Ring. Or any racetrack for that matter. Unimaginable excitement for a person that's been a petrolhead his entire life and bought his dream car a few months back. We drove past tiergarten right as the helicopter was arriving to the scene. Harrowing scenes, I was deeply shocked. And then when we went to TF entrance 2 hours later, hearse had just been let through to the track. Chills going down my spine as I realized what's going on. When we heard TF was cancelled for the day, of course I was hugely dissappointed, but at the same time I fully understood the scale of what happened and had no right to call anyone out whatsoever. I decided to make the trip again today, some 450km one way since I am staying near Ulm (i'm Croatian, but came to visit my family here). It was so worth coming again. Such an amazing experience, met so many wonderful people, seen so many great builds. I don't regret a single cent spent on making it back here again. These are the type of things no money can buy. Being dissappointed is okay. Being mad because track was closed after someone lost their lives there is just heartless. My sincere condolences to the families of our fellow drivers.

Also the track wasn't just closed out of respect or courtesy. Police was investigating the scene long after the crash and intended touristenfahrten times (Misha said the car or what was left of it was still there close to 10pm) because it's mandatory to do it if there were fatal consequences. It's a dangerous job/hobby, we are all aware of it and they were as well. That's why we do our best to minimize the risks and dangers. This was just a terribly bad luck.

Thank you for taking your time to do such an important video, Misha! Safety on the track is a topic that still gets to less attention in my opinion. What i don't really understand is why it is not mandatory to equip the cars that are tested during industry sessions with at least some additional safety equipment. Bucket seats, 6-point-harnesses, helmets and HANS could in this case have very well made the difference between life and death. And it wouldn't effect the performance of the car in any way.

Props Misha for making this video. You didn't have to. One always makes himself a target when speaking publicly about unfortunate things, because people are not happy about it and are looking for something and someone to blame. But you stand for something, and act accordingly. "Honorable" is the word that comes to mind. R.I.P.. Condolences to the families.

@@cee5212 idk cos its tyre testing I believe, so how they're strapped in has almost no effect on how the tyres behave. Seems strange to do 300kph+ speeds on a test programme and not be wearing full harnesses? Idk, I'm not trying to point fingers, just curious

what really scary when getting into a car accident, it not just the accident itself but if hi speed after hitting a car its the inertia / residual momentum that is left to dictate where your car ultimately rests and that truly what you can NOT control. Ive seen it in person and its horrible to witness

Very well stated! Condolences and prayers for the families, friends, and colleagues for their tragic losses.

Misha you are a good human. You allways know the right thing to say at a right moment. Condolences to the families and friends. And may the two souæs rest in peace

Also wanted to say that.

A stark reminder of how fragile life really is, and how dangerous high speeds are. Condolences to the ones left behind. RIP

Peace be with you brother, my heart goes out to those families. Keep your head up and thank you for the update. Your doing great work my friend

Well said Misha - thanks for letting us know. The two families can be assured, and may be surprised just how many people will have stopped in their day and be thinking of them and wishing them strength in these difficult times.

Life goes on, haters will hate as usual, you meant no disrespect 👍 RIP to all those concerned, condolences

Appreciate you sharing the life on the ring, please stay safe!!!

Misha, thank you for taking the time to post this video, and for putting the incident into proper perspective. The Nurburgring can be a very dangerous track, so incidents like this need to be understood and respected by others who enjoy the use of this track.

Thank you for the video. Your humanity and respect is highly appreciated!

Your a good Man Misha, your comments are well said. To the loved one's lost, RIP

Misha, sorry you have to make these sad videos, and please don't apologize to anyone. This is a tragic incident that you had no control over. If people can't understand that, then thats on them. Screw them. You continue doing you and continue making the fantastic content that you do with whatever you choose to do. With that being said, I just wanna say thank you for your awesome content and being awesome, amazing, and inspiring to a lot of us. ✌️😎✌️🤙😝🤙

Misha, Thank you for posting this. My deepest sympathies to the families & friends of those who passed away. Be safe out there.

Thank you Misha ,for putting across a very respectful video highlighting how high speed driving is so dangerous. Also showing respect and Condolences to the families of those 2 drivers . Keep safe ❤❤❤

May the lord rest these men's souls and comfort their families.

I regularly volunteer in the ambulance service. Thank you for making this video. Most times we give CPR there is a reason why the heart stopped, no amount of BLS/ALS will restart a shredded heart. My condolences goes out to all families that have lost people in roadside accidents. Be careful next time you get in your car/ on your motorcycle because these things can happen to anyone at anytime!

You have a respectful confidence that we would all do well to learn from Misha. Well spoken. You are a treat to the Motorsport community.

Misha , thanks for these very respectful words on what you could describe from this horrible accident , as for many who know or are friends of these two fantastic and passionate guys , it warms up our desperately bleeding hearts , rest in passion both of you , i still cant believe it

Awfully sad, my heart goes out to their families and I wish they rest in peace 🙏 💙

The reality of the ring is that it is as brutal as it is rewarding. Condolences to the occupants and their peers, but also a huge moment of gratitude to those who were on the scene and who supported the attempts to save them. People don't go out there without their presence and they deserve a tremendous amount of support. 🧡

Rest In Peace to them both and my deepest condolences to the family. Very well spoken words and you have truly a good heart Misha, i knew that after i visited your KZread channel videos.

Misha, I have total respect for you and the message you have posted tonight. R.I.P. to the two drivers that sadly lost their lives at the ring and my condolences to their family and loved ones. Misha, unfortunately, in the world we live in you will always have people that are so self-centred, selfish, inconsiderate and completely bloody heartless! If it was one of the friends or a family member it would be a completely different story!! Keep up the good work and great content. Most of all you and Maggie keep safe. 🙏🏼👍

My first visit to the ring in 2015, i saw the remains of a car being towed back to the Baumgaten trucks and it was covered by a sheet. This hit home how dangerous driving this place can be. Completely with you on keeping one's car in decent order for driving the track as a mechanical engineer. My condolences to the families in this dificult time. RIP.🧡

Misha you are class personified. Thank you for posting.

Thankyou for being so respectful about the reality of the situations about life & for some the consequences of their doing, whether it's job-wise or past-time. Praying for the people around them, thx Misha.

RIP , they went doing what they love. ❤

Not aiming this at you but I absolutely hate this saying. There is no comfort to anyone when someone dies doing what they love. Nobody wants to die doing what they love. That’s why they do it

@@patrykadamiak7570 For me its like - all dreams come to an end, and we all die someday, but these people had the courage and the will to pursue their dream come what may. Many of us take the safer but less fulfilling path. I don't want to die sitting on the toilet or coughing up my lungs in a retirement home so hearing that would be some small comfort to me. And knowing they went quickly would similarly be some small comfort. To each their own of course.

It’s such a deep debate. I respect and agree with both your opinions. As a car guy and one who tracks his cars, this always hits home and makes you think about your own mortality.

Sincere Condolences to the friends and family of those who passed away 🙏❤️🇬🇧

Saying prayers for the departed and their loved ones. Appreciate you taking the time to make a video like this even though it is not enjoyable to do so. Hope you are doing alright yourself. Stay safe everyone.

Respect and love sent from all of us here in the SanJuan Islands (Washington St US). You’ve done a great and honorable thing creating this video.

I am sorry for the news and may their family find peace from their loss.

Puts it into perspective that we can be gone tomorrow. Deepest condolences to their family, friends and colleagues. 100% agree with you that a vehicle should be in good working order for high performance driving and being a mechanic i also believe its important to keep your car in good nic regardless because its designed to keep you safe so as long as you take care of it. Drive safe everyone!

Deepest condolences to the families and colleagues. Thankyou Misha for the video done in good taste so respectfully.

Very respectful video, under such tragic circumstances. RIP to those guys involved.

Condolences to families. Our vehicles are safer because of the work these people do. Thankyou for reminding us to look after our machines. Take care everyone.

Thanks for taking the time to explain the situation , my deepest condolences to all involved.

Condolences to the families... And thanks for the information, Misha. I appreciate your work here, both in the fun and the sad part, you're always being yourself, respectful as always

A balanced heartfelt video, thank you Misha…

Very well said Misha. Sincere, honest and with love. Thoughs with them

Sorry to hear this. Most people never realize just how much risk they are taking by driving a car. Was a auto mechanic for 12 years, every time I did a repair or service I always had the mind set of "a persons life is at stake if I don't do the repair or service correctly". I advise people to take a few seconds and glance around before you get in you vehicle, that low tire could put you in the hospital or worse the morgue.

Thank you Misha for doing what you do. Much respect…

Thank you for also sharing things like this. Stay safe!

Greetings from Colorado. Thank you, Misha. Very well said. Thank you for sharing your life and those of your friends. I remember the day we lost Senna. So much happened because of that day. Driving fast, quickly, became a whole lot safer for everyone. Maybe, I pray, this event will be like that. We're good. Things came out of tragedy. Be safe.

Well said Misha. My deepest condolences to the family and friends of the victims ❤️

Proud of you Misha that you are doing this. This will be hard and personal for you. Many thanks for sharing this. There is a lot of selfishness in the world unfortunately ... from people that show now respect and just thinking about their own situation ... that's so sad and it says everything about them too. My heart goes out to the families and friends of the drivers. Wishing them much strength and warmth. I wanted to go yesterday, but discovered some small issues with my car so I didn't went to the Nürburgring. This horrible accident is a lesson more to have your car in optimal condition. Many warm wishes to you and Melissa.

Sad state of events, rest in peace and blessings to the families. Thank you for the update Misha.

Thanks for the video! Very well done, and I agree deeply with you! Also, thanks for your honesty, the good the bad! It happens we know it can happen to everyone! My best to families and friends! Thanks for all your efforts!

Misha thanks for posting this. It boils my piss when people complain about having there fun spoilt. Yes it's frustrating when you have to change your plans but just think about the fact a HUMAN has died!!!!!!

I can't belive people could be so selfish in a situation like this. My heart goes out to the families and everyone at the nurburgring ❤️

My heart aches at the tragic loss of these two brave souls on the track. Their passion for testing and pushing the limits led them to this fateful moment. May they find peace beyond this realm. Let's remember them with gratitude for their dedication 🕊🙏

Thank you Misha for educating us and always being honest. Take care!

Very sad when this happens Misha. You have done a good thing making this video about your feelings towards what happened. Condolences too the families. We all do things that maybe we shouldn't, but this is our life and we live it doing what we want. My brother and I used to do Hill Climbs in a single seater and I went to push start the car and my hand slipped and I fell onto the rear tyre just as he started the engine and spun the wheels to warm up the tyres. I took off like super man passing him and fell back down between the wheels to have him run up the back of my legs. He was out worried in a flash helping to get me on my feet. He burst into tears and hugged the life out of me thinking he had killed me. But we both carried on moments later doing what we were there for. We didn't win on that day but we went home happy and joked about seeing me fly. Misha we all watch you and others doing what we wish we were doing but can't. Love to you and everybody else that like these sports. Keep doing the do my friend. My brother died recently of a heart attack in hospital alone and I know he would have wished it would have been his end on the track doing what he loved instead. Hope to see your next video soon. Keep well x.

We all know how dangerous the track can be Misha, that’s why we appreciate what you do. Thank you my friend.

No words Misha, thank you for making this video, its an education to say the least. RIP those involved in this horrible crash.
