I don't have respect for certain people as well. But that doesn't mean i'm going to say that they deserved to die when they happen to die as a passenger in an accident.

On another note OP was talking about his driving skills which are unquestionably crazy good. He could easily have been a stunt driver for Hollywood where the same people here would be dick riding hard core on the mans abilities. Sad his life had to end in a PASSENGERS seat of all places...
Exactly. You people think Ken Block never did what he does on the street?!?!?

There something critically wrong with general public's misunderstanding that he had "skills." All he had was balls and exceptionally low morals. The way he controlled his car is far from what a skilled professional driver would do - jerky steering/pedal inputs, losing control of the car, and just full of bad habits. I'm basically saying anybody can do this type of shit with a little bit of practice. With NO comments on whether he should have died or not, I can say that he prob would have died sooner or later due to his shitty skills - again, all he had was balls, that's it.

I tend to agree with this.

yeah, i know. I quoted you but was addressing the others who were saying that.
