    I don't think you understand:rolleyes:

    If he hadn't been there, the quad wouldn't have cut off the dragster, the dragster wouldn't have lost control, the dragster wouldn't have hit anybody. So Im not glad his truck was there because it is the reason two people got hurt:mad:

    we have a place like that out here, only its about 100x smaller called 9 mile hill. Nothing but drunks racing around on quads with wife beaters, jeans, and tennis shoes. The place is a complete dump.

    No no no. All these people are claiming that if his truck wasn't there people would have died. I am just saying that we don't know that because maybe if his truck wasn't there none of it would have happened

    If I were the guy in the drag car I would have just hit the guy on the quad

    Thats true, since you say that I notice that all the damge in on top of the trucks hood. Which makes me think that his truck could have been used as a ramp. But I have no proof of anything other than 1 pic. I still kinda think though that his truck took the brunt of it and hopefully saved someone some pain.

    No, pretty sure what he's saying is that if James wasn't there, the bad karma would not have been there, so the accident never would have occurred...am I right cummins?

    and saying all this, look at all the people in that picture, they are all right next to eachother, so if james wasnt there then i am sure there would have been another vehicle there anyway since they were all cramming together next to the drags

    Yes. We will never know what would have happened if his truck wasn't there so we can't say it saved anyones life. There could have been another truck there or no accident at all and even if his truck stopped the dragster from hitting a fuel tanker parked behind him that would have irrupted into a massive inferno and killed everyone, he is still a douche nozzle that committed insurance fraud and bragged about it. All these people are acting like parking there made him a hero and negates the fact that he is a douche. He isn't, it doesn't.

    Now if he was to jump in front of the buggy, killing him but also stopping it dead in its tracks in order to save someone I might give him some credit

    Pretty much it the What If game. Like What if James wasn't there and an Alien ship decided to go there instead and beamed the drag car up.
