Plane Crash Santiago Chile: Exclusive Unpixelated Carnage Photo



Kyle from JMCS recently wrote about joining the native Chileans in their ethnic South American dance ritual called Aerobox which she found too easy and switched up for something more mainstream, salsa-ish. Basically her whole post, as I interpret it, is a frenzied diatribe about her experience doing group aerobics in Chile but listen up, girlfriend. The AP Reports that it could be a whole lot worse:
The Cessna 210 was approaching Tobalaba airport when it went down at the field in the Penalolen district, the air force's aeronautics department reported.

Penalolen Mayor Claudio Orrego said those killed on the ground were taking part in a gymnastics class sponsored by the municipality. Five of those on the ground also were injured.
Que heavy. I know they tend to crank up the music at these classes if it weren't so loud perhaps these poor souls would have had a running start?

Well, they didn't. And now for a Chileno red-ink exclusive I bring you unpixelated carnage thanks to a lazy El Mercurio staffer:



Whew, I've still got it in me. Okay, okay, it's not really "carnage" but no more so than the pixelated pair of legs in the foreground. Let's just not talk about that ungodly heap of mortal flesh in the background that nobody will go near.

Either the state of the Chilean economy is worse than even you have described or the concept of "field" down there is similar to my understanding of backyard which often clashes with those of my suburban-bred friends...

are you for real??? Is this post even serious?

That is the worst possible consequence of aerobics that I have ever heard.

@blaark, Chile is on the up. We are no hicks chewing cud in grass pastures we do our calisthenics on pavement like civilized folk.

@Kyle. When have not been serious? This is a horrible way for an aerobics class to end!

Was it necessary to publish those pictures?
I dont think so.
Respect.

We should start a petition protesting El Mercurio's photos.
I think they would be moved.
Retard.

You're the retard. You shouldn't be posting them on your blog - the fact that El Mercurio published them doesn't mean that it makes it morally acceptable for you to do so.

Did you even read the post Max? This is media criticism. El Mercurio fucked up and I called them out on it.

And even if I took the photos myself what morality are you talking about? Why should my standards of decency measure down to yours? What makes you such hot shit all of a sudden. I'm the one busting my ass to do a decent blog about Chile. Who the fuck are you to wag your finger at me? That's what I thought.

Anyway, I would bet my bottom dollar that Retard #1 didn't contact El Mercurio to complain about their photos, but it was easier to try to smear me. A click, a few keystrokes leaving behind the word "respect" like unwashed asshole.

I mean that's the real reason she's a retard. Respect. For the love of God. Respect for what? The incompetency of El Mercurio? Retard #1 is a primo example of vague, self-important moralizing dipshits who pollute the internet and can't think for themselves, or think at all, really. They're molded in the image of their unthinking parents whose only power in this cruel world was moralize vaguely in front of their children.

These retards' poroto-sized brains can't power up enough for the 5 seconds of thought it would take to ponder this post more deeply, and comment from that perspective. You, Max, aka Retard #2, are lamer yet for seconding her blinded, pedantic web-barf.

Nothing wrong with the photos ... sometimes they bring home the sadness and tragedy more clearly than mere paragraphs.
Penalolen! I hope it wasn't in the field behind Hogar Santa Cruz (near Egana) or the Francisco de Miranda School in PeƱalolen, where I sent Patricio in '92-'93.
It's a great school, Will - you should visit it. It was where the children of many of the 'democrats' sent their children during the Pinochet years.

Not only would I visit the school, I would even participate in an outdoor group aerobics activity. But I would be fully aware of the risks involved.
