Unfortunately, I've seen it enough times on the internet to know it. Fortunately, I can't remember having seen it in person.
When I saw that Tua situation live, I only saw his hand in front of his face afterwards and I'm like "Eww, he dislocated a finger."
Then they showed him get slammed to the ground and I instantly knew his fingers curled up like that because his body was in the fencing response. Both hands doing it along with the tell-tale reaction of the spine.
The fact that the most positive news they could deliver is "He sustained head and neck injuries. He is conscious and has mobility in all appendages" is fucking frightening.
Hearing Tony Gonzales and the rest of the halftime show carry the NFL's water was disgusting. "Well the good news is he's moving" no you jackass, the bad news is what we just fucking saw. Everyone saw Tua last week unable to walk then come back into the game. Now we just saw him in the fencing response. He could have died. He could have serious permanent quality of life issues.
The league is now going to come down HARD on Miami for last week. If this didn't happen and Tua escaped week 4 unscathed they would've brushed it under the table. Now, after that happening on National TV? They're going to get bent over.
And it sucks--because the league isn't doing it to protect players. They still don't give a shit about people. They're still stupid, lazy and reactionary instead of actually growing a backbone and caring about anything above the dollar.
