Bringing back memories of another americas cup accident that killed a cure member. Jade hernandez live in San Francisco. Reporter heather, todays race was supposed to be about the speed and skill of 72 catamarans on the bay, but instead it was about two teams trying to survive. Both teams racing in the Louis Vuitton final cups struggled on the water. Emirates Team New Zealand was caught in a sharp turn, throwing two crew members overboard. All of a sudden it crashes. I was more worried about the people who fell over. Both men pulled to safety only suffered bumps and bruises. It was quite a welcome to americas cup. Reporter these spectators werent expecting the dramatic excitement. The safety boats had them scooped up within less than a minute. So just gave me a real impress how dangerous that collision itself was. Reporter the 25minute race proved too much for the Italian Team Luna Rossa challenge, which struggled with equipment issues forcing them to with draw after crossing the start
