I have no knowledge of 2 wheels & a motor, to the point that I've never even sat on a motorbike.
I'm not trying to be controversial here, it's a genuine question, based on the fact that just one death at an organised sporting event, sends regulatory bodies into a tailspin.
As an outsider looking in, the only thing I know about the TT is, it kills people.
This story caught my eye:-

and fortunately the closing paragraph saved me from the next obvious follow-on google search
The TT races, which draw throngs of bikers to the island, are generally regarded as the most dangerous in motorcycling with 240 rider fatalities since 1907.
The latest was 43-year-old Japanese Yoshinari Matsushita, who was killed in practice last week. He was the 21st to die at the circuit since 2000.
As said I don't wish to tread on the toes of this boards TT fans, I'd just like to know how they are able to bypass H&S.
