Based on the fact that there is footage from the last 2 days of at least 2 other athletes crashing into the upper portions of that wall something like this should have been foreseeable.

Really? Because the FIL is the one who said it was driver error and not the track. Regardless they still took extra precautions before reopening the track.
Seems to me that a lot of people just want to blame Vancouver. It's their fault it's raining and not snowing, it's their fault the luger died, it's their fault the cauldron didn't light, it's their fault there were protesters... Nothing they do is right.
Regardless of the fact that the track had all the approval it needed.
Like I said, should just make it a tunnel, eh? Then it'll never happen again.
