I am a triathlete and sorry for your loss but as a triathlete we all know the risk. Specially in the water with a lot people swimming. They can't be close to everyone. No reason for blame or sued anyone.
As a triathlete for many years now. Many poor swimmers. I used to love the mass start. Now they trickle swimmers in for safety. They keep making “safety” changes. Regardless. If you have a stroke or heat attack in the middle of the swim. Very little safety officials can do.
Looking for someone to blame... and someone to sue.
Push your body to the limits. Sometimes you find them, Not very complicated
Stop making sense. It’s offensive!
What an idiot. He died in the swim. Nothing pushed to the limits. 1.2miles can be swam by any age athlete. The insensitivity of some people puzzles me sometimes. You wouldn’t be saying the same if it would be your relative.
Sometimes something safe and effective isn't so!
what's quickly for ironman brand?
I competed in Ironman Texas in 2016 and started the swim pretty much last since I'm not a strong swimmer. I couldn't believe how many people were hanging on to the canoes and flotation devices as I slowly swam the course. It's a tough sport, and you can get pushed, kicked, and panic if you're not a strong swimmer. We all take the risk.
Sad news definitely, unfortunately there’s nothing new to this, it happens. Good luck with suing IM, you know that long waiver form you sign at check in?
Hmmm 🤔 this isn't the first triathlon competitor to die here in Texas.
It's someone elses fault he died?
Feel free to tell his his level of fitness first.....
Dude apparently should have competed within his age and fitness level. Doctors can say what ever they want but the call is yours and so is the outcome. This is a frivols lawsuit
Most likely had an underlying heart condition
Yep. From something safe and effective.
The Jab?
Bingo
Then you realize this is not new! It happens even before the “jab” 🙄
@@pedalingparson 1966 to 2004? What happened to year 2004-2020? the number of events being held? Number of people doing it? Too many holes on that cited phrase alone, whay more when you actually provide the link to that said research.
@PMVelarde Appearntly RUclips won't post my link. When I edited my former comment and inserted the link there, the comment disappeared. So believe what you want. Anyone who has been into sports like I have my whole life and has been paying attention knows there was a sudden and significant increase in sudden deaths among high-level athletes since 2021 after being fairly steady for decades. And while correlation does not always equal causation one has to live in denial to not see some kind of connection to the jab and the sudden increase. The name of the article is "Normalization of Sudden Death Among Athletes Demonstrates the Extent of Our Societal Pathology" BizNews January 16, 2023.
@@pedalingparson buddy i work in medicine and I participate in Ironmans and marathons, ive been doing this sport for 10 years, in that decade ive seen deaths on races i participated almost every year, albeit I do race a lot! i was even in Galveston this year, IMTX 2018 I lost a friend while he was swimming, he was ultra fit! Done Kona, Boston l, etc. or the couple of athletes from IM ireland that drowned? so am i going to blame the vaccines back then? The math youre trying to justify just doesnt add up, the “jab” was given to BILLIONS of people around the world! Plus Biznews?!? Give me fckin break! So many reputable journals out there, published authors we choose biznews. Lol
