Horrific multi-car crash at the end of NASCAR's Nationwide Series race at Daytona Speedway [00:32]
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - NASCAR fans were injured when large chunks of debris, including a tire, sailed into the grandstands when a car flew into the fence on a frightening last-lap accident in the second-tier Nationwide Series race at Daytona International Speedway. As emergency workers tended to injured fans and ambulance sirens wailed in the background, a somber Tony Stewart skipped the traditional post-race victory celebration. The crash began as the field closed in on the finish line and sent rookie Kyle Larson's car sailing into the fence that separates the track from the seats.

Using the GoPro Hero 3 White edition, I give you five events I ran with my horse, Drummer. The camera's quality is AMAZING, unfortunately, when I went to edit it, rendering the video out proved to be a challenge, so the little horizontal lines were from the computer, not the camera. Events ran (in order of clips): Cloverleaf Barrels California Speed Barrels (or Speed Barrels...I've heard it both ways) Speed Ball Bi-rangle Single Stake I don't quite remember the times on each event, it was more for fun. Drummer is my all around western horse, so we just wanted to let our hair down and have fun...despite the wind being horrific.

Near tragic accident in morning workout at racetrack [01:23]
Exercising racehorses is one of the most exciting things I have ever done but it is also one of the most dangerous. I was filming one of our horses, Santa Strega (yellow blinkers with jockey Amanda Tamburello up), working out of the gates a half mile with another horse. Everything was going fine until the rider lost a stirrup coming through the turn. I would not have posted this if the rider did not agree to it, I'm so glad I wasn't filming something that could have ended really horrific...

Indianapolis 500 pays tribute to Dan Wheldon (5-27-2012) [01:14]
The start of Sunday's 96th Indianapolis 500 was preceded by an emotional tribute to last year's winner Dan Wheldon, who was killed in a horrific crash later in the season. The crowd, estimated at almost a quarter of million, paused in silence to remember the popular British driver, whose death in the season-ending race at Las Vegas continues to cast a pall over the sport. The car he drive to victory in last year's race was taken on a lap of the sprawling 2.5 mile track by team owner Bryan Herta. "There are a lot of people feeling Dan's loss," Herta told reporters earlier in the week. "It's still a difficult situation and it still feels fresh, but it's really nice to see the continued outpouring of support for Dan and his family and everything he has done for IndyCar." Wheldon's smiling face was featured on the official race day tickets and spectators were given white cardboard sunglasses, in memory of the loony white-framed glasses the Englishman often wore, to wear on laps 26 and 98 - representing the numbers of his winning cars at the race in 2005 and 2011. Wheldon's wife Susie and their two sons attended the race week. On Thursday, the drivers presented Susie with her husband's championship ring from last year. On Saturday, race officials gave her a replica of the winner's trophy. Wheldon won his first Indianapolis 500 in 2005 but it was his victory last year for which he will be best remembered. Despite finishing runner-up in America's greatest race in 2009 and 2010 ...
