Michael is no longer a public person so we should leave him alone and recover.
He will always be a loving father and husband and a F1 legend in our hearts.

The public will likely never see him alive. One day, his family, attorney, or PR person will issue a notice that he passed away, and post-injury MS will be a mystery until his wife, daughter, or son writes a book.

He suffered a severe brain injury skiing and hasn’t been seen since. No need for a 15 minute video about the poor man.

Everyone deserves privacy in these instances

I had a crash, and broke 30 bones, paralyzed, and had a TBI, brain injury, I was in a coma for weeks, the dreams are terrible, yet you can hear everything around you while in a coma, and I would listen to the staff while in a coma..crazy..im glad Mike is alive..

He might be in a coma right now, but I am so happy he became the greatest F1 driver before that. What a racer

[jordanbeech]

The fact he has not been seen since says everything you need to know.

[AndrewJB]

I'd like to remember Michael for 1991-2012.

I still can't believe this happened. Schumy danced at over 200 mph every other weekend and never got hurt. My prayers to him and his family.

[jonvia]

Such a sad situation especially since he was only trying to help a kid on the mountain when the accident happened.

[NoOne]

People need to understand your life is never the same from a serious head injury, I've seen it time and time again no one fully recovers from a serious head injury.
(Sorry to say it, but from the sounds of it he ended up catatonic)

[Fergy]

I can't imagine how upsetting it would be to see him in his current state. It's almost unbelievable that this has happened. I think of him a lot, it must be so hard on his family. Keep fighting Michael. Legend.

[wolfofinsanity]

A close relative of mine had a very similar accident in 2019, he is not the same as before, he can't do anything on his own, can't even speak... it's a strange feeling you clearly see that he is there with you and that he understands but struggling to communicate, like that he is trapped in there.
Horrible to say the least and i really think Michael is more or less in the same situation.

[bennorth]

If/when Michael returns to a f1 paddock it will arguably be the greatest moment in the sports history and a true day to remember. All we can do is pray for that day!

[benedictschneider]

I have grandparents from a town in Germany where the local doctor knew who treated him and what happened was that the initial ski crash wasn't what put him into the vegetative state. It was the fact that he was wearing a go-pro in his helmet during the crash which caused a severe head injury.

[CFSpener]

There’s a lot of hate surrounding this video, as a new F1 fan, I had no idea this happened. This video was valuable to me and I’m happy I got to learn more about the man who pioneered formula 1 as I know it. I have love for the Schumacher family and my heart breaks for them.

[gldihr]

The fact that he never been seen publicly should give you a clue of what the situation is 😕

[giuseppeciccarelli]

Guys I don't think there is much to say. Probably his state is very similar to the one Stephen Hawking was if not worse. So since nobody saw him, he has the chance to be remembered as he looked when he was in his prime and understandably he is taking it. Showing his condition now would be such a shock that everybody would remember him in that condition even after he's gone.

[AIAudiobooks]

as far as I am concerned, and I am a life long fan of his, the man we all knew as Michael Schumacher, died on that fateful day in 2013. Its so hard to accept, but he is clearly not able to communicate due to severe brain damage.

[guyinoakland]

The documentary named Schumacher should be watched.

I miss my good man HERO.
