he's doing communications. see the radio and headphones. probably didnt hear anything coming.

they also should be on the buddy system. each person looks opposite ways, but with the other person in sight. that way an incident can be seen from either direction up and down the track, while being able to react to what your buddy sees. which explains why he's looking totally the opposite direction. however, something obviously broke down in the system.

its also pretty obvious this happened pretty quickly. i imagine superman was taking pictures and didnt realize what was coming. didnt bother to say anytihng til it was too late. sorry for him...

That is a total Photoshop job...
If you look closely you can see the tracing around all the bits flying through the air (including the guy). These were cut out of some other photo and blended into a simple 'car in the tire wall' pic.

If it was a photoshop, I suppose the news article was fabricated too?

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) - A 19-year-old photographer died after he was struck by a stock car in a race on Sunday at the International Autodrome in Campo Grande, 1,200 kilometres west of Rio de Janeiro.

Raphael Lima Pereira, a journalism student, was photographing the Brazilian Stock Cars V8 race when a car careened out of control and he was thrown from a bank of tires, where he was taking pictures, police said Monday.

He was taken to hospital with unspecified injuries, and died.

The car, driven by Gualter Salles, hit the track's first curve following a crash involving several cars shortly after the race started. Salles was unhurt, and chose not to continue the race, which was restarted.

Race organizers said Pereira was in an area were photographers were not permitted.

Pereira was the third death in the 25-year history of Brazilian stock car racing, and the first victim who was not a driver, according to O Globo newspaper. </TD></TR></TABLE>
