got this off the gixxer board, doesnt say what type of internal injuries got him or if a chest protector would have helped.

He came out of the chicane hot and left the ride side of the track. I guess he tried to get control and got back on the pavement and shot straight into the wall on the left. He was unconscious and not breathing when the medics got out to him. By the time the chopper got there he was conscious and appeared to have a broke femur and some internal injuries. They sid this morning that he died on the operating table.
