F1 Movies site with '67 Bandini crash

Don't know if you folks have seen this or not. Excellent site with nothing but F-1 movies, including the 1967 Bandini crash that claimed his life at Monaco (pretty gruesome, lots of fire). Todd Wasson

What's the URL?

Bandini could have been saved. (dumbass' saftey crews IMO) Makes me sick.

Please read the original post again, Steve. There were 2 main points. 1-> Great F-1 site with a lot of great footage. 2-> '67 GPL era Bandini crash I was hoping that even though these two points were made in one sentence, no one would pull one point out at the expense of the other and make it appear that it was the only reason the website was recommended. I recommended the site primarily because it's an excellent F-1 site that shows fantastic replays of the greats at their greatest. That is why I originally bookmarked it, then reviewed it, and later posted the link. The Bandini crash was interesting to me because it showed what can happen in real life in these GPL era cars. I feel it puts some of my video gaming, reality-craving craziness in perspective. The Bandini crash happened and millions of people saw it in 1967, just like they saw Ayrton Senna and many other racers die, and just like I saw the Space Shuttle Challenger explode on television years ago. I still watched the Challenger explosion repeatedly on the news (and cried about it, actually, being a 6th grader at the time) in disbelief. No, I don't "get off" on watching people die, and I doubt many folks who do will bother/know how to access an automotive simulation newsgroup like this one. *Concerning education:* When taking driver's education classes at age 15, we were forced to watch much more gruesome videos than this Bandini crash footage in order to "pound into our brains" the severe consequences of driving intoxicated or recklessly operating a motor vehicle. Close up shots of bodies were shown to us and we all cringed. I hated it, but it was indeed "educational" in that when I felt the need to drive my '79 Firebird like a maniac, the pictures would flash through my mind and I would indeed get a reality check that would slow me down to a more sane speed, as I did not want to feel what those crash victims felt when they hit the guardrail/other car. Strangely enough, the families of these victims actually allowed these videos to be shown in school driver's ed classrooms. I've seen other similar "gruesome" safety videos where I work, that get graphic in order to emphasize the reality of what can happen if you operate machinery without using the proper personal protective equipment such as safety goggles and hard hats. My employer felt a couple of these graphic videos were indeed educational enough to spend money on them for us to view. It was a bet against his workers compensation plan. What does this "educational aspect" have to do with video games? I've seen enough nasty crashes on television/videotape (some resulted in death) to not get too worked up over them. I assumed most other folks in the newsgroup have also seen the same types of things, and for those that hadn't, I warned them by saying "Pretty gruesome, lots of fire". I felt this was descriptive enough for people to decide for themselves whether they wanted to view the footage or not. When I'm playing GPL from now on and imagining myself really driving the real car, the imprint of that firy disaster will make my next daredevil move a little more frightening, a little more real, now that I know what really happens when one of these cars smacks a wall. That's just me. <snip> "But never seem to jump to recommending a site that charts his career or achievements!" <snip> I still think the site has excellent F-1 footage ASIDE from this crash, as I mentioned as point 1 in the original post. I was not, however, searching for the late Mr. Bandini's personal career acheivements. Instead, I was searching for actual F-1 in-car racing footage when I found the site, so did not bother to post any other sites pertaining to him. The site remains an excellent source of in-car F-1 footage, as I mentioned in the original post. Thank you, Todd Wasson

Let's start over, shall we? I figured readers in this group would associate the Bandini crash to GPL and the harsh realities of driving on the edge in a fashion similar to the way I did, but my feeble mind must have failed me again :-) So, with that hopefully out of the way, check out the great F-1 site with lots of OTHER fantastic movies! There's a couple of .mov's simulating the new Indianapolis F-1 addition, and lots of other terrific in-car footage of the world's hottest hot-lappers showing their stuff! Todd Wasson :-) My apologies to the Bandini family, the Petty family, the Senna family, etc..

Yep, once was enough, but Outlook Express got a bit cranky on me, sorry. But I still find it bloody amazing that people want to watch a mans death because its 'educational', but never seem to jump to recommending a site that charts his career or achievements!

Yes!! Hehehe!! The doctor says I'm getting MUCH better now... With Formula 1 at Indy, I won't be needing as many happy pills... :-) Cheers, Todd Wasson

Well, to be honest, I don't think anyone is having a go at you personally (I wasn't), but I question the webmaster's motivation in posting such a grotesque accident. The difference between Bandini's crash and those 'road safety' films, is that in such films, many the drivers were already drunk, driving recklessly, or whatever; You could say they got their just desserts. Also, it's much more chilling to know that you can still end up looking like mincemeat if you crash your ordinary car at low speed. I doubt most people have a car with anything near the performance of the Ferrari 312, so I can't see how it is relevant to our everyday experiences. If I have a bad crash in GPL, I have, in the past, said "oh...shit, I died", if I know I would have IRL, but then I've hit shift-R, and carried on. All a matter of personal taste I suppose.
