Michael Schumacher Suffers Serious Head Injury In Skiing Accident

Brendan Flowers

Heard about Michael's accident this morning but at the time reports seemed to suggest it wasn't serious. However I see it was covered on the RTE News at 9 that Schumacher is now in a serious condition. Reports saying he's suffered a brain hemorrhage and his life is in danger. Awful news but hopefully he can pull through.

I read it here.... Schumacher skiing injury ‘not very serious’ despite initial reports (via TheJournal.ie) http://thescore.thejournal.ie/michael-schumacher-skiing-accident-1242333-Dec2013/

I really dont think AH is appropriate for this.

Hoping he pulls through. A fierce competitor and too young for his family to be facing this at christmas at a family holiday.

That seems to have been superceded unfortunately.

You'd be surprised. AH can more than hold it's own with the serious fora, when it wants to.

Sometimes I like to give AH the benefit of the doubt. There doesn't have to be a pile of muppetry in every thread.

I don't care.
If you were in a coma would it be ok to post "funny" comments because your family wouldn't read it?

How awful.

Isn't this the same type of accident that killed both Sonny Bono and Natasha Richardson?

Really hope the poor guy pulls through.

No. I was the one who started this thread and its wasn't for tasteless jokes. It was to discuss the accident of one of the great sports people of our time. So I would ask for a bit of respect please.

This is hard to take; the news reports are not offering much hope here; the man is a legend.

Doesnt mean that you have to be a dick about someone being seriously ill. Grow up, would you.

Get well soon Schumi.

Natasha Richardson's accident/death is being compared to this as the same type of injury.

Hope he pulls through, how awful for his family to be going through this

Tbh id say he has more concerns at this time then someone making puns on his current plight.
