Georgian luger dies in a tragic crash in Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics

THE festive mood of the 2010 Vancouver Olympics opening ceremony was contrasted with the grief for the death of luger Nodar Kumaritashvili, an athlete from Georgia who died in accident in the sliding track during a training run at Whistler Sliding Center.

Here's a short video of the horrific crash/accident that happened just hours ahead of the opening ceremony. Kumaritashvili died after flying off the Olympic luge track and smashing into the metal pillar at high speed.




May you rest in peace Nodar!
