“Shak! (referring to Hislop) Shak! Aid! We need doctors!” Shouted, bewildered, Thomas, who tried to assist his broadcast partner.
After the crash, ESPN’s broadcast quickly went commercial as medical personnel attended to it.
Everything indicated that the high temperature and humidity that existed in the Rose Bowl stadium could be the triggers for the ex-sportsman’s decompensation.
“My partner Shaka… that’s good news. He is conscious, he is speaking. I think he’s a little embarrassed about it all, he’s apologized profusely. He is not a man who likes people to make fun of him,” Thomas said on camera.
At another point, he noted that “obviously it is too early to make any kind of diagnosis, but the important thing is that Shaka is conscious and we also talked to his family, because you can imagine seeing that live. We spoke to his wife and things are looking good.”
