I was working and watching the race and remember seeing the accident never once thinking he's been injured that bad. Was mortified when they announced he had passed on.RIP.
@JPT my brother was there but majority of the people wasn't concerned because it looked like a minor crash they only found out something was terrible when dale was still in the car for 27 mins after the crash. u say he doesn't know anything about racing if u where there u can't say its because if it happened u would know what happened but if u know what happened because they already announced it ur gonna be like "why u didnt know u dont know anything about racing" that's because he was there in present so it was real time but u already knew what happened because it was announced when u saw it.
@@Antwan_R Those kind of wrecks don’t look bad because they look like less severe damage to the car. But the head-on sudden stop is more force on the driver’s body. If he had flipped and spun more that would dissipate energy away from his body.
@@easyenetwork2023 yeah thats why we start to look at more severe crashes instead of barrel rolls and stuff I look more to the crashes that just goes right in like instant hits everywhere like denny's crash in Auto club California and noah gragson's dega crash
@JPT Hind sight is 20/20. Don't act like you knew it was serious. I've seen horrible wrecks where I thought no way they survive and they walk away. That looked harmless at the time.
Dale's spinal column was severed at the neck due to the impact into the wall. What are you fools talking about that it did not look bad. Prior to the race numerous drivers, officials, journalists and others were talking safety but Earnhardt chose not to use the HANS (head and neck support) had Dale been wearing the HANS most likely he would have servived that fatal accident. The device was originally co-developed by sports car racer and Jim Downing
@@_aragornyesyes_7171 Think about it though. Of the accidents he had over the years, the ones that injured him the most are the ones that didn't look that bad. Look at his accidents in 1999 at Atlanta, 1998 at Charlotte, and 1995 at MIS, those accidents hurt him far more seriously than his Talladega wreck in 1996 (or 1998) as well as his Pocono crash in 1982. None of the 3 former wrecks I mentioned looked remotely as bad as the latter ones I mentioned, but they all involved sudden stops as did his fatal wreck in 2001 whereas in the latter wrecks, while violent and terrible looking, the car kept moving and scrubbed off some of its energy and forward momentum. The wreck in 1995 at MIS actually broke Dale's neck (this was not known until Dale Jr. revealed it years after his death) and as I've understood it, the car in the wreck was so utterly destroyed that nothing was able to be salvaged from it. Again, the wreck doesn't look that bad, but it's a sudden deceleration at extreme speeds.
@@yojoeski You forget he broke his sternum and some ribs at Talladega and it likely weakened his neck too. It took him until 1997 just to heal fully from that crash. He was hurt from 1997-1999. After he had surgery in the 1999 offseason, that allowed him to be himself again in 2000. But a lot of damage has been done, which did not help in the fatal crash. The HANS would have probably saved his life as you said.
@@_aragornyesyes_7171 it’s because of the angle that he hit. I remember being 10 years old watching this race live. And dw said those are the kind of wrecks that hurt you.
@@SlaughterSlayer actually, the HANS device requirement was put in place because of Blaise Alexander's crash in ARCA in 2000. Earnhardt's seat belt snapped, which sent him head-first into the steering wheel. That's what killed him.
Rest In Peace Earnhardt. You were actually my hero and was the one who inspired me to start learning about nascar. His crash was fateful and I will always remember my hero in my heart. 🥺
I watched this race, saw the accident and did not think it looked life threatening considering the horrific crashes I witnessed. I was happy for Mikey and Die as a whole. Turned off tv and went out to garage work on my 1968 ford bronco, after about a hour I popped a beer and turn radio on, in about 5 minutes the music stopped, this is breaking news it was just announced the Dale Earnhardt was killed in the Daytona 500. I was shocked! Not only because he was my favorite driver but that crash did not seem bad. I understand he did not wear hand device , sure wish he would have, be alive today for sure! Crazy!
Well Dale Earnhardt died because of a big hit causing his neck to be snapped so he cannot look left and right And a skull fracture causing the skull to be like in a horrific crash of Ryan Newman but Ryan did not have skull fracture he got minor injuries but Dale did not survive because it was causing the skull to break because the gravity was high it might 49 or 53G Maybe of a big crash there is no way he can survive he only have 4% chance of surviving but he didn't make it
The HANS device would likely not have saved him because the hit was so hard that his seat came loose from the brackets which bolted it to the chassis. This has been shown to be due to improper installation of the seat itself and some of this is on Dale himself because he wanted it installed a certain way. Also his lap belt snapped in half as well. He died from the impact of his head against the steering wheel of the car and with the seat moving forward along with the belts breaking under the stress, the HANS would've been useless at that point since it is attached to the seat itself.
@@gladiatorindonesia5222 Plus his lap belt broke which caused a fatal blunt force facial hit to the chin. HANS and SAFER Barrier would have been maybe what saved his life.
After Dale's wreck in '96 that he walked away from we were sure Dale was gonna be fine nobody thought this would happen God needed a driver. And he picked the best one. Race in Peace, Dale. We're still rooting for you from down here and NASCAR hasn't been the same without you
He was so good he was hated. There just was no social media to amplify that. Noone has gotten to his level. Sure JJ but I was lucky to be young enough for both and I can assure you Dale was bigger. The one race I went to was Dover in like 1994 and I was just hoping itd be anyone but him. My dad was a big Kulwicki fan so it was cool seeing Jimmy Hensley run the 7 that race but guess what? 3 won
Such a horrible day for everyone involved: Michael: First win EVER at the biggest race overshadowed by the death of (arguably) NASCAR's greatest driver. Junior: Loses his dad. Kenny: The first to know, scarred for life by what he saw in that car. Sterlin: Unjustly blamed for Dale's death, had to deal with harassment and death threats from "fans". Darrell: Also knew, couldn't happy - cry for his little bro long enough before focus shifted entirely onto Dale. Blackest day in NASCAR history.
I worked for Ford, and was at the race. Being a dale Earnhardt fan, I was listening to his pit crew and when he hit the wall he kept on asking Dale, talk to me, talk to me are you OK are you OK and of course no response
Dale Earnhardt should've made a pit stop when they got down to 2 laps to go on the Daytona 500 back in 2001. He'd probably finish in 25th place. He would've retired in 2004 from NASCAR. He was 71 days away from his 50th birthday.
the announcers celebrated for micheal waltrip. Yet once they figured out the death, it made them lose all their happiness. Rest In Peace Dale Earnhardt. You have and still will be missed by many.
And to illustrate the forces involved, they wrecked I believe midway in turns 3-4, but ended up in the tri-oval probably nearly a half mile from where the crash first started. Edit: maybe more like 1/4 mile as he needed up in the grass exiting turn 4 right before pit road entrance.
@@thebroskis6364 With your admission that these video game" reenactments " are basically inaccurate cartoon displays why in the world are so many people addicted to fantasy games and kids and many adults literally waste thousands of hours pretending they are watching real events and playing games which make thrm feel as if they are great athletes when it's totally fake.People need to stop letting an electronic machine control their lives. Get out and live the real life ! Praise GOD and JESUS !
This video is about as in-accurate as it gets. There were live feeds of the accident and his car did Not spin around like that in real life. They dramatized the whole event with this made up video.
The biggest change in NASCAR happened because of his death. Use of the HANS device was mandatory starting with the very next race. It probably would have saved his life.
I think you could've done better job with the crash but other than that everything else was pretty good R.I.P Dale Earnhardt, the 7 time champion, Daytona 500 champion.
I have an neat photo scene taken of a crash showing Tony Stewarts car straight upside down and Dale Sr. passing by low just missing that wreck, this happened about one hour before Dale's final crash. You should be able to find to find it on You Tube some where. RockinRonny
There are a lot of accuracy issues with this reenactment. Just to name a few, Earnhardt and Schrader slid off the track and apron together but this video shows Earnhardt spinning into the infield seconds before Schrader. Also, this shows Marlin going on to finish 3rd right behind Waltrip and Jr which is not accurate.
This is NOT accurate AT ALL. In turn 4 of the last lap Marlin wasn't directly behind Earnhardt as this depicted. That was Rusty Wallace's position. Marlin was on the low side of the track just off of Dale's left rear fender. Ken Schrader was in the same position opposite of Schrader on Dale's high side. To this day idk if Rusty got Dale a little loose causing him to move low into Schrader or did Dale take himself down low to block Schrader as he had been doing to him and other drivers during the race protecting his teammate's lead ahead of him. I would like to think him moving low at that point of the race was inadvertent as both Waltrip and Jr had widened the lead gap and had the race well in hand. Nobody was gonna catch Waltrip at that point except Jr and a block by Dale on the other drivers was unnecessary!!
He got in Sterling, went on the apron, and straight back up the track into Schrader’s path. I wished he had just spun the car out and not tried to save it.
They hadn't been implemented at that point The Hans device was made mandatory after his death Dale was knows to push back against these safety devices saying that it obstructed the drivers view and mobility
It should have been Rusty Wallace in 3rd instead of Marlin and Rusty was the beneficiary of Dale's wreck he avoided the carnage and finished third when all hell broke loose as he put it. I thought when seeing the race live, I thought Rusty was the car that crashed but then I saw Rusty going across the line and Dale was in the crash with Kenny Schrader.
The sudden deceleration is what kills you, not the violent barrel rolls or spinning rapidly after hitting the wall. Going from 140-150 mph down to almost 0 mph that quick is unloading all the force onto the driver’s head and neck. With the HANS and SAFER Barrier, I think the belt might not have snapped or the belt snapping might have been survivable because the HANS would have kept his head from coming that far forward.
Reenactment is very close however the number 2 car Rusty Wallace what's besides Sterling Marlin Sterling Marlin did not hit Dale Earnhardt has Dale Earnhardt enter the corner he was coming down lower and the number to car that did not touch him actually took the wind off Dale Earnhardt's spoiler and got him loose
So sad. Knowing he last saw his son in front of him. Knowing that the equipment he refused to wear most likely would have saved his life.. so so sad..
Rest in peace.
There was an article that came out that said the safety equipment of that time still wouldn’t have been able to save him

This is NOT accurate AT ALL. In turn 4 of the last lap Marlin wasn't directly behind Earnhardt as this depicted. That was Rusty Wallace's position. Marlin was on the low side of the track just off of Dale's left rear fender. Ken Schrader was in the same position opposite of Schrader on Dale's high side.

He hit the wall so hard so fast man that’s crazy
The sudden deceleration is what kills you, not the violent barrel rolls or spinning rapidly after hitting the wall. Going from 140-150 mph down to almost 0 mph that quick is unloading all the force onto the driver’s head and neck. With the HANS and SAFER Barrier, I think the belt might not have snapped or the belt snapping might have been survivable because the HANS would have kept his head from coming that far forward.

Reenactment is very close however the number 2 car Rusty Wallace what's besides Sterling Marlin Sterling Marlin did not hit Dale Earnhardt has Dale Earnhardt enter the corner he was coming down lower and the number to car that did not touch him actually took the wind off Dale Earnhardt's spoiler and got him loose
HIT THE BRAKES BUFORD
Not funny.
The day NASCAR died 😔
That was the day I stopped watching nascar I was a fan of Dale Sr. for year's after he died I lost all interest in it.

How did rusty wallce just spun around
Rest.In.Peace
critical angle. his body went from 155 mph to 0, instantly. not healthy.
Was not born when happening i was born 2 days after I miss him
rip
Would I be correct to assume that trying to slowing down to keep another driver from advancing caused him to buy it?
Whys the impact out of focus
