There's NO WAY I'd go out and try to pick some guy's bike up and play human Frogger like that in the middle of a race. Somebody was asleep at the flag.

Nasty vid. I remember seeing that a few years ago. Maybe the old board? Who knows... Glad they all lived, never heard or read any follow up.

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

When I cornered for Apex to Apex at Grattan raceway{fully repaved now} the Can do Crew{Best corner workers on the planet } had a hard and fast rule: Never turn your back to on coming traffic.

More good thinking. The workers in that video weren't that smart.
Never been a corner worker but it seems that someone should have run back towards the apex of that turn and waved the racers to slow and take the inside line. I'm sure the racers exiting that corner couldn't see the on track workers and downed bike until the last second. And certainly weren't expecting it.
That was a nasty accident for sure.

As soon as that bike went down mid-track that race should have been immediately red flagged and all traffic should have been stopped.
Some was apparently either asleep at the flag or the radio or something.

Absolutely should have been red flagged. When I used to corner work CCS races we had a rule that corner workers weren't allowed to cross a hot track. Glad no one was killed.

Believe it or not that was a CCS/LRRS race.
