Zwei Männer sterben auf dem Nürburgring Zwei Hobby-Rennfahrer sind auf der Nordschleife des Nürburgrings mit ihrem Sportwagen tödlich verunglückt. Laut Polizei unterschätzte der Fahrer, ein 44 Jahre alter Engländer, eine Kurve. Der Sportwagen überschlug sich und fing Feuer. Neben dem Fahrer starb auch der 29-jährige Beifahrer, ein Deutscher. Die beiden hatten sich per Internet zu der Fahrt verabredet.

Police says, the driver, a 44yr old Englishman, underestimated a bend, and the car rolled and caught fire. Beside the driver, the passenger, a 29 yr. old German died. Both dated for the drive via internet.

As long as I'm single this is my prefered exit method. No passenger, though.
Hope they were having extreme fun.

RIP, whoever they are.

Personally I hope to live past 100, then get shot by a jealous husband......

Keep it shiney side up.

Sad, so very sad. This has not been a good year. My deepest sympathies.

[clanger]

I really hate these moments, I feel so vulnerable. I have this feeling of cold and empty inside - I'm so so sad when a fellow enthusiast dies pursuing his passion for speed and thrills - it could be me, it could any of us - RIP brave fellows
