Video: Superbike legend Troy Corser's heartbreaking fall

There's no better evidence for this than that which is depicted in the video above. Double World Superbike champion Troy Corser is making a bid to wresle the lead from the number 1 bike through the chicane and on to the start finish straight, but it all goes wrong when he runs wide into some treacherous standing water.
