Found Audio: Lance Mackey on his snowmobile accident

02. May, 2008 2 Comments

Right before Lance Mackey’s 2008 All Alaska Sweepstakes 3rd place finish in Nome, Lance was hit by a snow machine. The machine was traveling at a high rate of speed behind Lance. He flashed his lights and yelled at the driver, but says it didn’t seem to matter. Mackey jumped off the sled just before the snowmachine hit the sled from the rear and ran it over.

The day after the accident Lance went on local Nome radio station KNOM and talked about his story.

We know things have improved quite a bit since then, but its still chilling to hear Lance tell this story.
