An astonishing sequence of pictures of the final minutes of Princess Diana's life have emerged as the long-awaited inquest into her death finally opened today.
The never-before-seen images, posted on an official website by coroner Lord Justice Scott Baker, includes the last known photograph of Diana alive and graphic scenes of the desperate fight to save her life.
More than ten years after her death in a high speed crash in Paris they bring back with startling clarity the fantastic efforts to keep Diana alive.

I give up. What was so graphic?
So?
I do. The paparazzi should be charged with murder, 'cause it goes beyond negligent homicide. French laws and terms probably differ of course.
I’ll admit it.....
The instant I learned that Diana was “romantically involved” with at least her second Muslim lover, and rumored to be pregnant, I thought that she had been “removed” to avoid the crises of the heirs to the throne of England having a Muslim Stepfather and possibly a converted Muslim mother....
It almost appeared as though an unstable Diana was intentionally maneuvering to embarrass if not bring down the Christian Royal Family......

I just clicked the link next to “Excerpt” and it opened right up to the article. Don’t know what could be the problem.
I don't think she was that bright.

If her driver wasn't completely sh**faced drunk at the time of the crash, you'd have a valid argument.
The article claims the efforts to save the lives of those who remained alive after the crash (including the Princess) were “fantastic.” My recollection was that medical folks, from EMTs to ER docs, claimed at the time that France’s “fix on site” was not as good (or “fantastic”) as the US/UK “scoop and scoot” (get the injured stabilized and in an ambulance, doing further stabilization on the way to the hospital).
If they had an opportunity to get a “jaws of life” to the scene by the time some of these pictures were taken, then they had an equal ability to get an ambulance there. I do not see one in the photos. France has a different approach to emergency medicine and in this instance it is possible her life could have been saved.
I assume that a prior inquest was completed. This one is just for the “open questions” and for conspiracy minded types?
I rank Paris Hilton as more interesting than Diana.
I don’t think that Diana would have been as good in the Simple Life series.
Between Diana and Britney, I don’t know, it’s kind of a tossup. Britney is embarrassing and trashy, but probably not as much as Diana was.
DIANA’S INJURIES. Horrific internal injuries may have doomed the princess from the moment of impact. But the amount of time that elapsed between the accident and her arrival at the hospital—more than 1 1/2 hours—could have been a factor in sealing her fate.

Wow.
They have pictures of the moment of the crash. Who was taking all those pictures. Where are the time stamps on the pictures?
They name some of the other paparazzi that were close. Serge Arnal is first on the scene. They also name Fabrice Chassery, and Serge Benamou.
I don’t know, some high society chick named Diana who was killed in a car wreck after a night of heavy drinking and bar hopping with her Muzzie boyfriend, who shouldn’t have been drinking in the first place.
Had these high society ‘above the law” people had some respect for the law us “common, low folks” are forced to follow, they wouldn’t have gotten into an accident. Booze and high speed reckless driving courts fate, who doesn’t discriminate over the social status of it’s victims.
You hire a chauffeur named Toonces, you’re just asking for trouble.
Trevor Rees-Jones, Diana's bodyguard, was the only survivor, because he was the only one in the car wearing his seat belt. I bet both Dodi Fayed and Diana would have survived if they had worn their selt belts
There also would have been much less damage to the car if a concrete crash barrier of the type used on US highways had been placed in front of the pillars in the tunnel.
That Chauffeur Henri Paul has that sudden jihad syndrome look in his eyes.
I personally didn't care for Diana or her problems and I cared even less for the HUGE amount of coverage following her death when Mother Teresa's passing generated a collective-yawn from even-then Tired-Old-Media.
There is absolutely no proof of that, and the driver was drunk as a skunk. it would be extremely difficult to drive even faster than the limmo driver was going, get ahead of him and take pictures at the same time.
As far as that paparazzi theory goes, the driver was way ahead of them, driving 3 times the speed limit when he hit a bridge pillar in a well lit underpass.
A bunch of drunks got in an accident , but because it was Diana and her Arabian prince lover, they are exempt from responsibility for some reason. They are 100% fully responsible, nobody else.
