What is the story behind Kyle Busch's tragic death?
Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east.
Hey, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show. We have a jam-packed Kelly's Court coming up later today, but we begin with a truly sad and shocking story out of the world of NASCAR as the sports world mourns the sudden, shocking death of 41-year-old NASCAR legend Kyle Busch. Details surrounding his passing remain murky, but here is what we know. According to the Associated Press, yesterday Bush was using the Chevrolet simulator in Concord, North Carolina, that's near Charlotte, when he became unresponsive and was taken to a hospital. His family initially releasing a statement that suggested Bush would not be competing in this week's Coca-Cola 600, writing, quote, "...Kyle has experienced a severe illness..."
resulting in hospitalization. He is currently undergoing treatment and will not compete in any of his scheduled activities this weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway. We ask for understanding and privacy as our family navigates this situation. Less than eight hours later, NASCAR, his family, and his racing team releasing a joint statement announcing his death. Quote, on behalf of the Bush family, everyone at Richard Childress Racing and all of NASCAR, we are devastated to announce the sudden and tragic passing of Kyle Bush, the statement read. Our entire NASCAR family is heartbroken by the loss of Kyle. A future Hall of Famer, Kyle was a rare talent, one who comes along once in a generation. He was fierce, he was passionate, he was immensely skilled, and he cared deeply about the sport and fans.
His death coming 11 days after, he told his crew over the radio near the end of a race in New York that he needed a doctor to give him a, quote, shot. According to reports, he had been suffering from sinus issues that were aggravated by the G-forces of his job and elevation on the course. He came in eighth that day and was healthy enough last weekend to go on to win the Truck Series in Dover, Delaware. We're going to get to the medical issues in one minute. We have a team here to tell us what they think. This is a 41-year-old guy. How do you drop dead of something related to sinuses maybe at age 41? What do they think went on here? We're going to delve in in one minute. First though, Bush is survived by his wife, Samantha, and their 11-year-old son, Brexton, as well as their four-year-old daughter, Lennox.
That is just awful. A little four-year-old and 11-year-old, that's too young. It's so bad on a couple of levels because 11-year-old What's worse, the 11-year-old who will remember him and will feel this pain acutely or the four-year-old who probably won't? That's just too young to have lifelong memories. She may have some vague image, but I'm sure every parent has thought about this. You know, it's like I've thought about it a million times since my dad died when I was 15, and I feel so grateful that that was long enough for him to make his imprint on me. And, you know, for me to know him and for me to have a real human in my mind and my heart that I can remember. I think the same will be true for their 11-year-old boy.
But the four-year-old, I don't know. I don't think so. I think about it with Charlie's kids all the time. You know, Erica and Charlie did such a good job of videotaping their family. And Charlie, of course, there's reams of video. We all feel like we know Charlie. But there's, you know, there's knowing him as your dad and having memories of him taking care of you. And then there's knowing video of him, which it's not quite the same. We all know that. And these poor two kids and Samantha now have to wonder what happened. Was this preventable? And this guy was a superstar in the world of sports and racing. The NASCAR community says he was truly one of their best. Two-time Cup Series champion. He won more races across the three national series than anyone else in history.
known as Rowdy, they called him, or Wild Thing, because he was full of personality.
