Re: It was his own fault
The belt of a car engine is well protected. You have to make an effort to get your fingers in there. Multicopter rotors are out in the open, ready to cut anyone foolish or unfortunate enough to get too close. Car belts also don't have a tendency to come falling out of the sky if the battery unexpectedly dies or some electronics blow up or someone makes a pilot error, etc, etc.
It's fine racing around a racetrack, but that's with sturdy barriers and a good distance between the speeding cars and their timing belts. You don't go racing a car around with its front end bodywork removed through a shopping center. So why would you fly a (large) drone over a crowd?
