Clip of Danica doing it somewhere too, that I don't care to find. Not a big fan of the sport, but I assume lots of them have done it. I'm guessing this will put a quick end to that.

The video you posted can not be compared to the incident that killed the kid.
In that video, Stewart is standing along the side of the pit lane, with the other car approaching head on, in a well lit environment, at lower speeds, and he throws his helmet, while standing clear out of the way. The kid he hit last night ran into oncoming traffic (not just Stewart) in poor lighting, in a corner, on a dirt track, dressed in black.
That'd be like comparing a pedestrian on a sidewalk during the day, to an idiot in black trying to cross deerfoot at 6pm in January.
This is certainly a tragic accident, and my condolences go out to Kevin Ward Jr's family, and also Tony Stewart. One lost a loved one, and the other now will live the rest of his life with the guilt of taking a life, both would be awful.
