The Fifth Estate

Details

Nik Zoricic was one of the fastest members of the Canadian ski cross team and had dreams of representing Canada in the 2014 Sochi Olympics. His promising career was tragically cut short when he crashed near the end of a World Cup race high in the Swiss Alps last year, in what course officials termed a freak accident. But as Mark Kelley learns, the first death in ski cross competition history may not have been so unpredictable. In the days leading up to that last race athletes raised alarms warning that the final jump was exceedingly dangerous and that race organizers were pushing the limits and didn't heed the early warning flags.
