A journalist dressed up as a priest attempted to sneak into the room where Michael Schumacher was lying in a coma, according to German media.

After the man's cover was blown, he was reportedly escorted off the premises with Schumacher’s manager, Sabine Kehm shocked that the incident occurred.

Kehm told German journalists about the intrusion after a press conference in Grenoble. "Apparently a journalist dressed as a priest had tried to gain access to Michael's room," Kehm told a reporter from Die Welt.

"I wouldn't have ever imagined something like this could happen."

The despicable jorno should have suffered a thorough beat down, leaving him in a body cast at a minimum.

Journalists were created so that pond scum could take solace that a lower life form existed.

Very few of us can ski safely at that speed, I’m lucky, I do. Speed is a LOT OF FUN if it’s done correctly BUT.....Unless you have the skills needed and are on a prepared track and have on SuperG or Downhill skis it’s not a great idea to even think of skiing that speed.

Is Schumacher Catholic?

Speaking as a professional and FIS World Cup Masters racer, he’s a good skier, good, but not a very good ski racer and not at all ready for any kind of real speed. He just doesn’t have the skill set......hope he lives!

What I’m seeing in that clip is not the form of an expert or anything close. I would hesitate to take him out on any serious territory in the West. Perhaps since he is used to high speeds in one area of sport he was not appropriately intimidated when he tried skiing and overestimated his abilities. It happens. Sometimes fear is a good thing. I hope he pulls through.

Dressed as a priest? In Germany? A dead giveaway the man was an imposter. Next time wear jeans and a Hawaiian shirt.

For what it is worth, this per his personal manager Sabine Kehm: “Shumacher was not traveling fast at the time. Those with him were initially shocked by how bad he was hurt. It’s not a question of speed but the angle that you hit the rock”. We will see I suppose. Prayers up for Michael.

My guess would be Lutheran.

Just a hunch as my ancestors from Germany were.
