Yeah definitely, and not only did the marshall die.tom p wrote:you're right there..... the guy running across the track with the fire extinguisher who gets cut in half by the F1 car... is Dark.
It was the 1977 South African Grand Prix and two marshalls were attending the driver in his car on the left hand side with fire extinguishers. The car that hit the second marshall was a British racing driver named Tom Pryce and he died as a result.
The following explains what happened:
Pryce was directly behind Stuck's car along the main straight, Stuck himself sensed Van Vuuren and moved to the right to avoid both marshals, missing Bill by what Tremayne reports to have been a matter of "millimetres". From his position behind Stuck, Pryce could not see Van Vuuren and was unable to react as fast as Stuck. He struck the teenage marshal at approximately 170 mph. Van Vuuren was thrown into the air and landed yards in front of Zorzi and Bill. The fire extinguisher smashed into Pryce's head, before striking the Shadow's roll hoop, which threw it over the adjacent grandstand. It came to earth in the car park to the rear of the stand, where it hit a parked car and jammed its door shut.
The impact with the extinguisher had wrenched Pryce's helmet upward, and he had been partially decapitated by the strap. Death was almost certainly instantaneous.
As for the marshall:
He got shred up good.As for Van Vuuren, the injuries to his body were so severe that he was identified only by exclusion after the race director summoned all of the race marshals and Van Vuuren could not be found.
