Very fitting for the rider but somehow heartbreaking to watch.

Advertising before you watch the video - seems worse than individuals trying to make a buck out of his death to me?

Quite possible that it's entirely automatic, like YouTube.

Quite likely; but as it's hosted on their own site, they could have disabled it too I'm sure.

I'm not particularly against it (well, I am against advertising at the beginning of videos, but not the making money overall) - just commenting as people got so up in arms about someone who said they were trying to make money to visit this in person.

Some poor little webmonkey might have got an email saying 'make e video free' about an hour before they need to do it, and be in no position to make the call about disabling a revenue stream.

Even if it's entirely intentional, I see a difference between 2 weeks later and starting an eBay auction within hours of the guy dying.
