Terrible outcome.
Good that he put the video all together so competently- might help some new rider to think twice before acting rashly.
Also a reminder to ride leaders to consider the experience level of those behind them when making decisions.

In all seriousness... This would make one hell of a T.A.C commercial.

Chilling account....with some sobbering insight, thoughts to the rider and his family and the driver of the 4x4.

Very chilling to watch, and very sobering to hear the emotion in the commentator's voice.    "Is he your mate?"   "No, he's my son"   I simply cannot fathom the depth of the grief of that father.

WOW. how scary and sad. I was so emotional watching this.

Pockey.

I agree, and it's a day in his life he will never forget!
