Pascal Braeckman is very affected by it. “What should I say?” he answers the question back. “I don’t know anything. All I know is that I was very shocked. Koen Wauters called me this morning to ask if I knew more about Tom’s accident. I fell from the sky. I couldn’t believe what he said. In the meantime I have seen that my son has also sent a message about this. The media have also been calling me all morning. Sorry, I don’t know anything.”
Pascal Braeckman, currently on holiday in Ostend, had not seen Tom Waes for almost a year. “We still heard each other, but it was a while ago that we saw each other. I didn’t even know he was in the country. I thought he was in the Netherlands. We wanted to eat something soon. Because it was so long ago. We can only keep our fingers crossed that Tom is not doing too badly and that he will get better soon.”
Pascal Braeckman was Tom Waes’ permanent sound engineer for many years, including for the television programs Empty test room in Travel Waes. He appeared regularly and became a media figure himself. For example, he took part in the popular TV quiz in 2012 The Smartest Person in the World. (grvr)
