I just picked this off the internet.

Obviously I can't tell just exactly how accurate this report is. Let's just say it does't look good.

Looking at the various news reports this morning I notice a couple of interesting things:

1. Schumacher was wearing a helmt which will possibly provide more information into the accident.

2. Ferrari and the Tifosi are out in force providing support and tributes.

3. Mercedes are nowhere to be seen in the crowd. I wonder why?

The last I heard was the Mr. Schumacher was being slowly brought out of his coma, BUT, that he didn't seem to be responding. That was last week. Anyone heard anything since?

Nothing on any of the forums that would normally communicate this type of information. I suspect the family is purposely keeping a tight lid on things as things aren't looking positive. Other than his eyes blinking, no other news.

If this report is correct it points up the importance of the proper mounting of ANY hardware to your helmet

That's the first time I've read that he fell '30ft.' but it would account for the severity of the injury.
Indeed, very sad  Sad.

I don't know if it's been edited but when I read it, it said he fell and tumbled for 30 feet.  I read that as falling and his momentum carrying him down the hill before he came to a stop.
