No one bothers when we are shown formula 1 crashes over and over . Your thoughts please.

With the consent of him and his family then yes. They perform these stunts, and we watch them knowing they could go wrong. It looks like he will make a full recovery so I do not think it is in bad taste to show the crash. It is not graphic.

Yes it should as long as Richard Hammond agrees for it to be shown (after all he was the one that nearly died) they will not only be showing the crash itself but the safety information involved before the crash all the preparations that went on.

Yes for as long it is alright for him and family why not but they could use the film as an safety issue for the future and learn something from it and hopefully learn to avoid what had happened all the best to him and his family. Some shows do show accidents on formula one race crashes its called amazing videos.

Yes, provided the cameras were turned on.
It is assumed by the media that he was doing 300 mph ( I suspect he was not)
Looked like tyre failure but the roll cage stayed intact (it is unbolted to remove it). I assume he was injured by the pounding of his helmet against the roll cage. I have done that in my race car and it makes you dizzy and sick. In his case he probably had an internal head bleed.
Yes, it should be shown, it was a man taking a risk for fun and he survived.

after all the concern given to him I think it should be shown if he and his family are OK about it. At the end of the day if people don't want to see it then there is an off button on the TV they can use

Yes. Since he lived to tell the tale it's "merely" a misadventure caught on tape, and while there's some bloodthirsty entertainment value to it, it also presents an educational opportunity if they take the high road in presenting it.
Contrast this against the unseen Steve Irwin tape... I feel the snuff film factor far outweighs any educational value it might have.

Yes, i hope so.
I think that Hammond would be OK about it.
