Apparently Senna was assassinated...
Discussion
Can't access the you tube clip but if its the conspiracy theory that he was shot by a sniper in the trees in the vicinity of tamburello then its a story i was told not long following his death (by someone in a pub, not anyone with any authority) 
IIRC the story was something to do with the mafia not being very happy with Senna and his Senna Foundation organisation as it was effectively taking kids out of the slums which in turn seriously affected the mafia's bottom line margin on all white powder related merchandise. As a result the mafia paid for a general tribune admission ticket to the 1994 San Marino GP for one nr. hit man (sporting a Ferrari baseball cap and trench coat to blend in)
Again from memory i think the whole consipracy theory came about as the only damage to Senna's lid was a small hole in the visor caused by the broken suspension part.
IF the you tube clip is not about the sniper in the trees then i apologise in advance for making a tit of myself by wasting your time reading the above drivel
P.S - Irrespective of the theorists we were still robbed of an extreme talent in an untimely manner.

Love the bit about paying for a general tribune admission ticket. Have visions of Fat Tony from the Simpsons queueing up with the rest of his mob carrying guns. Wouldn't want to do anything illegal, would they?

there is no way a sniper could make that shot. ever.
to make that shot, at a target the size of football, moving at about 150 mph, remaining concealed, with a regular snipers rifle (not an automatic), at your first attempt is just beyond comprehensible probability.
Sounds like you are speaking from a position of knowledge and practical experience there Pablo? to make that shot, at a target the size of football, moving at about 150 mph, remaining concealed, with a regular snipers rifle (not an automatic), at your first attempt is just beyond comprehensible probability.

Like its been said, freak accident which killed him. Not even a huge impact. Nothing like what Ratzenberger suffered the day before.
Bit silly even thinking he was shot really. A bullet would have been found it his head...
no thats not how conspiracy theories work, the aliens took the bullets away as evidence...Bit silly even thinking he was shot really. A bullet would have been found it his head...
