Here is the best video showing the crash I found. They zoom in at one point. The guy was way in to the track. Not just his arm sticking out.

I wonder how fans treat someone in the crowd after something like that.

Okay but it was only the arm that got hitZ

The way your comment reads I was looking for him to be on the track but not even close. Absolute moron for sticking the hand/arm out though
