    He was taking photos, and someone lost control and hit him. Looked pretty bad, hope he comes out okay. The ambulance said Grady on it so I'm assuming that's were he went.

    AS MANY HAVE ALREADY POSTED MATT AS STRUCK BY A VEHICLE. HE WAS SHOOTING ONE VEHICLE WITH HIS BACK TURNED AND ANOTHER VEHICLE STRUCK HIM. HE IS AT GRADY. PLEASE KEEP HIM AND HIS FAMILY IN YOUR THOUGHTS.

    I WOULDN'T SUGGEST CALLING OR DROPPING BY UNTIL WE HAVE MORE DETAILS ON HIS STATUS. WE DON'T NEED TO BE ADDING ANY MORE CONFUSION TO THE SITUATION. I KNOW HIS PARENTS ARE ON THE WAY TO THE HOSPITAL I WILL HAVE MORE DETAILS FOR EVERYONE AS I GET THEM.

    AND IF I SEE PIX OR VIDS OF THE ACCIDENT ON IA YOU WILL BE BANNED FOR LIFE!!! IT IS VERY INAPPROPRIATE AND NO ONE NEEDS TO SEE THAT. I PERSONALY HAD TO CALL HIS PARENTS AND ITS PROBABLY ONE OF THE HARDEST THINGS I HAVE EVER HAD TO DO. PLEASE RESPECT MATT AND HIS FAMILY.

    THANK YOU.

    if he is ok he might not mind it being posted, it will make it up either way, a thread just needs to be made warning that if anybody post it they will be banned and it will be deleted unless he is fine and doesnt mind

    i was 15 feet away when it happend, i looked up to see the 240 locking up its brakes to stop
    i looked right into matts face as he looked up and out, then the 240 struck him , im not going to go into any detail because its not my place however i hope a speedy recovery to him, we had chatted throughout the day
    he was conccious when the ambulence arrived and he remeber his name and where he was..... he was taken to Grady
    all of the photographers on the infeild feel especially touched because all of us where standing where he was at some point during the day...

    AS OF RIGHT NOW IF I SEE THAT SHIT ON HERE DON'T BOTHER COMING BACK TO IA. I THINK IT IS VERY DISTASTEFUL FOR ANYONE TO WANT TO SEE SUCH THINGS WHEN WE KNOW THE GUY IS SITTING IN SURGERY RIGHT NOW AT GRADY.

    Im not saying I want to see it, I agree that it is fucked up if people want to watch somebody get seriously injured, I was just saying that if anybody post it up here it should be him.
