Marty Cortinas at Wired (http://www.wired.com/playbook/author/martycortinas/) reports as many others the sudden death of Georgian luger Nodar Kumaritashvili (full article at http://www.wired.com/playbook/2010/02/death-on-vancouvers-fast-track). For italians on Corriere della Sera is reported that in a couple of hours, judges decided that incident was created by luger fault (http://www.corriere.it/sport/speciali/2010/vancouver-2010/notizie/pista-slittino-assolta_a9166686-1896-11df-adbd-00144f02aabe.shtml).
What is really awfull is that opening ceremony was made.
Is not a problem of making 1 minute silence, nor Mr Rogge crying eyes (whose reaction by the way I think is honest).
The opening ceremony had to be stopped, because there’s no olypmic spirit in celebrating with a 20 years old dead in next room.
And even if was an error to cause the death, It’s a little bit suspicious to close the investigations in such small amount of time (maybe to safeguard the 80 millions euro spent?)
It’s so sad having principles so slave to money.
In memory of Nodar Kumaritashvili (November 25, 1988 – February 12, 2010)
