I want to dedicate this thread to videos of races of people going out hard and dying/fading dramatically in a race. Or just people fading dramatically in a race anyway. Get posting

Not really. He certainly didn't go out too fast since the first mile was pedestrian. He pushed the pace at about 3000m or so and just couldn't match Viren's kick. I certainly wouldn't say he died.
The entire men's elite field at the 2013 London Marathon.
This isn't a very good example because you can't see it take place very clearly in the video, but in this race Rupp bites off a bit more than he can chew (staying with a pace that was too fast for him) in the 3k here:

He went out in ~1:59 at 800m (trying to stay with Solinsky), and ~2:30 at 1k. He ended up finishing in almost last with a 7:50. Wonder what his post-race workout was after this.
Even the announcer say "Pre dies" for fourth.

Pre didn't blow up. He ran his last lap in sub 60. He just got outkicked. It happens.
When LV went after Fernandez's 2 mile record, just completely faded, and got his ass kicked by the Rosa twins. Hard not to laugh while watching the last half of that race.

Umm, did you watch the last 15 meters of that race? Pre is lucky he didnt collapse on the track and get DFL, so pathetic.
anything with owen skeet
I don't have any vids of people dying in races. That's morbid, man. When would a video of someone dying during a race NOT be dramatic?

He leaned super far forward because he got passed by Stewart and felt desperate.
