DJ Tyre Blowout At Sydney

[Brendon I.]

The guy was there. He is stating what he saw and heard. What's wrong with that? While not quoted directly it sounds as though he has heard someone say something about seeing "hundreds of little bits of shredded tyre". Being that the airport is a restricted area I think it is safe to say that whoever made the comment has some idea of whats going on and it hasn't come from Joe Bloggs walking his dog down the runway. On the other hand if he (Tim) did make it up then I'm sure he would fit in really well at somewhere like The Daily Telegraph.

Tim, maybe if you can recall who made the statement about the shredded tyre some of the doubters here may know this person and can challenge "them" as to what they saw.

WOW.. I can just feel the love in the room!

Guys guys guys... all this emotion and anger.

Maybe (just maybe) Nigel's response wasn't filled with the anger that some have claimed.. I cannot be sure, so how can anyone else.. The body of the text, in my opinion, could be read either way.

We all know that it is hard to communicate the feeling of a conversation with text - so I for one would give it the benefit of the doubt.

Just my 2 cents

cheers
Paul

PS. I did enjoy the story Tim.

And your opinion here is valued and noted.


Isn't it funny that people here are so critical of the medias reporting of events because of the inaccuracies...I wonder where some of the inaccuracies come from?

Thus far I haven't seen anything in the media about this 'event', but it would be fair to say the media most probably do browse boards such as this one looking for a headline.

All I'm saying is if people witness an event and want to comment on it, then please try to make it accurate, and don't sensationalise it. I'm certainly not trying to censure Tim.
