A major accident involving 15 cars at the Indy Car Race in Las Vegas claimed the life of Dan Wheldon, the reigning Indianapolis 500 champion and 2005 series champion.

The crash started in front of Wheldon, and his car launched off of a car in front, flipped and erupted in flames. At some point, cars were airborne and upside down. See crash video below:

Dan Wheldon was in line to win $5 million if he had captured the checkered flag at Sunday’s race. He was 33 and left behind a wife and two children.
