Ever since the death of Olympic luger Nodar Kumaritashvili, the video recording of his tragedy is still one of the main searches of people online.

The luge competitor from Georgia died on Friday during a training session on Whistler track in Vancouver, barely a few hours before the opening ceremony of the 2010 Winter Olympics.

Sources say that before his death, Nodar Kumaritashvili had spoke to his parents and said that he would “make them proud.” He also allegedly said that he was scared of the track.
