KLM Disagrees with this statement.

Are you talking about yourself at the thurd person ?

Or is that just a passing reference to your favorite Airline company (now French) ?

Either way
Based on historical references

Do realise that you are either :

1) To the point of considering seeking profesional help

2) Or just go ahead and over run the small world we live in

This new report from England adds confusion to this already settled account  
of three fatalities in a car crash 10 years ago.  Two deaths from   transected 
aortas from frontal impact.  One death from a cardiac  herniation and 
strangulation, NOT massive blood loss from a mediastinal  injury.    The two 
autopsies (British and French) did differ, in  that the French autopsy did cite the 
tear in the pericardium from the injury and  the cut in the anterior pericardium 
created by the surgeon.    Apparently the British autopsy report had the 
pathologist making an assumption  that all of the pericardial interruptions were 
made by the  surgeons.    The British pathologists apparently did not   talk to 
the surgeons and the French pathologist were in the room at the time of   her 
death.  Looking at BOTH autopsy reports, one does NOT find any   indication of 
MASSIVE INTERNAL INJURY, nor massive internal  hemorrhage.    The description 
of this patient at the scene and  during the transport time, and at the time 
of arrival at Petit Salpetier  Hospital, is inconsistent with hemopericardium. 
  

Princess Diana received the very best that was available to her in Paris at  
the time.  Various approaches to trauma care exist in most cities   worldwide. 
  It is my professional opinion that the outcome in this  case would have 
been the same in any city in the world, even those with well   advertised Level I 
Trauma Centers.
