Bad Luck For Wilbur Brink
Norma
On the morning of May 30th 1931, eleven-year-old Wilbur Brink was just a regular kid. By the evening, he was a legend. Wilbur Brink was living with his parents in 2316 Georgetown Road, Indianapolis, USA. Just across the road of the Indianapolis brick yard motor speedway. That day, the Indy 500 race was held at the speedway and Wilbur was playing in the front yard of his parents’ house. On lap 162, defending champion Billy Arnold was leading the race. Suddenly the rear axle of his car broke at turn number four of the track. Arnold could not control the car anymore. At high speed, it rolled over the wall and one of its wheels sailed high over a metal fence, far beyond the perimeter of the track, bouncing several times before it eventually struck and killed Wilbur Brink who was still playing in the front yard.
Never in the history of bad luck, did bad luck get so bad.
For instance, the odds of dying from parts falling off an airplane are 1 in 10,000,000. But Wilbur Brink’s unbelievable cause of death is more like the odds of say a meteor landing on your house. For the record: those odds are 182,138,880,000,000 to 1. And while you may wonder about the odds of a band dedicating an album to your life almost a hundred years after your death, the chance is very real that it just might happen. Because the proof is right here with Norma’s full length debut “Bad Luck for Wilbur Brink”.
