    Recovery kills two spectactors

    *****WARNING VERY GRAPHIC VIDEO*****


    I can't embed it Darren (on phone) but here's the direct link to the liveleak video.

    Prime example of keeping clear of recoveries...two people killed!

    Saw this. The angle they were recovering in was never gonna work and the 2 blokes paid for it. Look at the head damage. Warning, not for the queezy.

    No it was a shackle in a recovery point of some description. I have slowed the video down to frame by frame and it looks like the recovery point completely let go. Those guys copped a shackle and recovery point in the head.

    Be careful people.

    Geeze. That's insane. But does demonstrate the importance of the safety when recovering..
