Robert Kubica: The Day I will Never Forget !

My 50th Birthday is coming up on June15th. I am a Big Big Sports fan and about 5 years ago, at this time, like every other year just about, I got a visit from a friend that lives in Florida now. His name is George, he is Hungarian and we have been friends for about 40 years. I mention he is "Hungarian" because he taught me how to say "Until We Meet Again" to all the ladies out there, but in Hungarian and I still remember the Line...it goes like this... "Vee-Sunt-La-Tash-Ra" "UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN" It has been almost 5 years now since this happened and Kubica has not been back to the F1 circuit yet but i still am hopeful and am reminded of it each year at this time as we approach F1's Monaco Race which is followed by The Grand Prix Du Montreal. My friend George isn't too familiar with all the new improvements in software for the PC and asked me what I was playing with on the computer screen that day while watching the Race with him {It was my video capture card}. He asked me one question and then ALL HELL HAPPENED... He said to me..."Can you take a Live picture of the Race with that thing"? To which I replied..."Why Yes, we can, we just have to hit the Space bar like this"...and I hit it rapidly for about 12 seconds in a row without looking at what was happening on the screen...and as I turned and looked up SHOCK & HORROR filled my eyes immediately as I realized I had just captured a horrific accident LIVE in sequential digital photography. Here is , in order, what I captured that day...

Here is the Video of that incident...

There is an inherent Danger that you will fail miserably in Both !!! But a winner doesn't let that stop him !!! In My book just Like Kubica is a Winner so is Ridley Scott !!!
