\u200cchance \u2063to really get close to \u2063the\u200b action.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, \u200devents like the crash \u200con Sunday are a\u200c reminder\u2064 that people \u200coften \u2062get too caught \u2063up in \u2063the\u2063 excitement,\u2064 and tend\u200d to forget about their surroundings.<\/p>\n<p>This \u200dcluelessness and lack of awareness\u2062 lead to \u2063accidents like this.\u200b People \u2064need to remember that when\u200c they attend events like \u200bthis, \u200dthey \u200bneed to \u200dbe \u200daware \u200dof\u2063 the \u2062precautions \u200cthat are in place

\u200bthat\u2064 is\u200b leading\u200d to problems like \u200dthis.<\/p>\n<p>Some people who attend\u200b these events tend to think that the \u200devents\u2063 are all about \u200cthem, \u2062and \u2062they are willing \u2063to\u200b do \u2062anything to \u2064get\u200d a chance to be \u2064on television or\u200c get\u2062 a \u2063selfie\u200c for social \u2063media.<\/p>\n<p>In reality, however,\u2064 these events are \u2063not about them, but\u2063 rather about the athletes, who have worked their \u2063entire lives \u200bfor\u200c this\u200d and\u2063 deserve to have this opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>But now,\u200d these racers will have\u2063 this moment \u200bruined\u2062 for them because of the\u2063 reckless\u200b actions of one oblivious spectator.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately,\u200d however, the \u2062man\u2019s\u2064 arm only hit a \u2063cyclist. \u2064Imagine for \u2062a moment if instead of hitting\u200d a \u2062cyclist, his arm had hit an escort vehicle \u200csuch as a car or a \u2063motorcycle.<\/p>\n<p>The\u2063 spectator\u2064 could\u200d have\u2064 been seriously injured or \u200ceven killed \u200dif \u2064that\u2064 had been \u200cthe case. \u200dAll\u2062 the \u200dmore \u2064reason \u200cfor people to \u2063remain vigilant at \u200cthese \u200bevents.<\/p>\n<p>The narcissism \u200dthat \u2063some of\u2064 these\u2064 people show is putting other\u2064 people,\u2062 and themselves, in\u200b danger \u200dbecause of their \u2064endless obsession with\u200c the \u200dself.<\/p>\n<p>By all \u200bmeans,\u200b we
