Yes, they are very disturbing.

Re: *** Something for everyone to think about *** (groovyjay)
I don't really think that was in poor taste. That is reality. If any of us had to go to a DUI class or any other of those wonder state funded education classes (that you have to pay for again when you get your invitation :) ), you would most likely get to see that very same type of thing. So then is the state in poor taste? At least with this link you didn't have to sit through more if you didn't want to.
A word of warning about what you were going to see would have been nice though.

Re: *** Something for everyone to think about *** (Grendel)
Well since I am in the medical community I have seen some really gruesome things so I know what reality is however some form of warning would have been nice. I don't want to see that before I have eaten my breakfast.
Besides why is this is tech/performance???

Re: *** Something for everyone to think about *** (CRUZMISL)
I have to agree with you, Joe. I also work in the medical field and have to occassionally work around some unpleasant circumstances and, regardless as to how accustomed to this sort of thing one is, it's nice to have a little warning.

rschiltz, the link was to pictures of a Ferrari that had wrecked. The Ferrari was trashed and had broken up into pieces, but the people involve where in the pictures too. Was not pleasant. I will leave it at that.

They could have been fake, but if I was to bet on it, I would bet they are real. They were convincing enough to make you think two or three times before doing something risky either way.

If this is the one about the red Ferrari wrecked in Italy with one of the guys ground up and wound up around the armco in the center divider, they are 100% fake. That's not even good photoshop. I have seen to pretty bad stuff in some of my Army travels, but those pics are just plain silly.

Please, someone tell me how you know for sure that they're fake! I've seen the pictures and they're horrible!

Those surely look real to me. Wow. That's a shame.
And I don't think a coat of Zaino is going to do much for what's left of the car either.
Whew!
