BEEN TO SEE THE NEW MOVIE "RUSH" ABOUT TWO OF THE GREATEST FORMULA 1 RACING GUYS OF THE 1970s.
IT'S THE STORY OF THE RISE OF ENGLISHMAN JAMES HUNT [NO DIRECT RELATION TO ME] AND AUSTRIAN MIKI LAUDA IN THE WORLD OF FORMULA 1 CAR RACING.
IT IS SUSPENSEFUL, AND CAPTURES THE CRAZINESS OF SOME OF THE PEOPLE IN THAT SPORT.
NEVER BEING A CAR RACING FAN, I KNEW NOTHING ABOUT THESE TWO FELLOWS, THOUGH I DO REMEMBER HEARING THE NAME MIKI LAUDA ON THE SPORTS NEWS DURING THE 1970s.
SO WE CLEARLY SEE THE FANATICISM OF LAUDA AND HUNT.
BUT THE BIG LESSON FROM THIS MOVIE IS A CLASSICAL EXAMPLE OF SOMEONE LIVING THE BIG PARTY LIFE, AS A WAY OF LIFE. JAMES HUNT WAS ABOUT AS IMMORAL AS YOU COULD GET WITH SEX, FOR YEARS, AND THE SAME FOR BOOSE..... DRINKING ALCOHOL AND PARTING, THE WILD WILD LIFE OF AN IMMORAL PERSON OUT OF CONTROL.
AT THE END OF THE MOVIE, IT IS MIKI LAUDA YOU HEAR SPEAKING, AND SAYING HE WAS SHOCKED TO HEAR OF JAMES HUNT'S DEATH [HUNT HAD RETIRED, MIKI LAUD WAS WORLD CHAMPION AGAIN] AT AGE 45!!
JAMES HUNT DIED FROM A HEART ATTACK...... NOT AT ALL SURPRISING FROM THE WAY HE LIVED.
SO THE LESSON.... IF YOU WANT TO LIVE A LONG HEALTHY LIFE, DO NOT FOLLOW JAMES HUNT'S EXAMPLE.
CERTAINLY A GREAT MOVIE IN SHOWING YOU THE WRONG WAY TO LIVE.
AS FOR FORMULA 1 CAR RACING..... WAY TO DANGEROUS, DISRESPECT FOR THE HUMAN BODY, EVEN HUNT AND LAUDA AGREED IT WAS PUTTING YOUR LIFE ON THE LINE, IN EVERY RACE. IT WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE AGE TO COME UNDER CHRIST.
