Not a good day for Eddie Griffin - Page 2

From today's paper:

Quote:

The Web site TMZ.com suggested the whole thing might be a marketing ploy, noting that footage shows a man who is standing nearby doesn't flinch as the car hits a concrete barrier. "It's pretty interesting," TMZ adds, "that after the crash Griffin joked it up."

I noticed the guy standing behind the barrier as well. It's possible, but it also looks like he might have a camera. It's pretty easy to become kinda disconnected with what you're seeing through a camera's viewfinder and not really react until it's right on top of you (it looks like he does kinda jump once the car actually hits the barrier).

Unless he was positioned there to catch the crash?

if it was indeed staged...to a car guy, thats like slashing a priceless painting for a laugh.
I hope the owner is able to get compensated for it, although I cant imagine how. I still want to know what dufus thought it was a good idea to put an unskilled driver behind the wheel of a (highly twitchy) work of art.
