Mcmonkeybug
No sure if because all here or if safety was SORELY lacking this year.

They were all from Jamaica winter Olympic team

#7 Brush up on your skills and next time you'll wipe the floor with the competition.

The janitor must be placing bets on the race.

The broom one got me.

Skiing is fucking dangerous.

Ah yes, the Bradbury!

Humans. Strapping dead tree parts to their bodies and throwing themselves down hills covered with crystallized water, risking death.

#11 hermann maier, nagano '98. Stood up, shook it off, won gold in the next race few days later... A legend

Ya dead Mon?
justapoordoctor
They should make a show just to show us all the injuries the competitors suffered - would be interesting
heavypettingzoo
where are the curling accidents?!
mactoid
It’s all fun and games till someone gets a forced snow-enema!

The agony of defeat. I hear wabc's wide world of sports in my head now

I scrolled down to find this. Cheers, fellow old fart.

You don't see such spectacular fails in the summer Olympics do you?

I would like to think I could fail that badly at one of these sports, but more likely I would fail even worse and probably die

When mexico goes to winter Olympics. .m
grayjay
serious question-what happens if someone runs into you like in #6? is there a redo?
drinkup4
If you're going to screw up, be at the front of the pack so you can take people with you.
Blrp0
On the other hand, if you're not gonna screw up, be at the front of the pack so you win.

THE GUY THAT BROKE HIS LEGS, YOU CAN SEE HIS LEGS BE JELLO WHEN HE HITS THE FENCE LINE.

It made me feel sick to the stomach :/
joebuck123
And the agony of defeat. Anyone old enough to remember ABC The Wide World of Sports? B.C. (before cable)
PhantomGeek
yep

Agony of defeat, and d’ankles, and d’legs...

Yep. Vinko Bogataj was the ski jumper -- he walked away from that with a concussion and broken ankle.

Affray
The best kind.

Men's Alpine Plummeting.

Extreme skiing
NotYourFamMate
That guy apparently died in front of everyone
BrazilianThunderPanda
What was he competing in? Olympic Ski Suicide?!
DASautoxAustin
source?
CrazyGuyOnABike
I don't know, but also that's not a failure. People do ski jumps off big things and land back-down in powder pretty safely.
yuivd
The was definitely a failure. A landing off of a drop like that often involves falling back due to impact force, but that guy definitely
yuivd
Did not land that drop
WhattaYaLookingFor
Hermann Maier Nagano 1998. First this crash and three days later Super-G gold. That’s legend material right there.
aggresivesnuggler
Why was there a broom on the track?
ElroyJetsonEsq
Track worker fucked up. They offered Channell a re-run but if I recall correctly she declined.
MycolTheFunguy
Yeah does he get another run at it or?
triscuitparty
Yes they gave her the opportunity to re-run
Brandy321
Its like curling. they sweep the sled through the tunnel for better positioning
mmmerf
closet was full.
PhDPool
GodDamn!
gigglytuff
MisterWho
Their team wanted to sweep the competition.
moyanerd
Came back just to up vote this

Why is there a suicide sport on the track?
ericdidit
All winter sports are just about not trying to kill your self while looking good doing it
cyno01
I hope that one at least got a do over.
KountyBoy19
She did. But actually went slower on her rerun
cyno01
Probably a little apprehensive about getting a broom to the face at 100kph.
KountyBoy19
Indeed

Curling people are bastardy.

Apparently they were cleaning the track of ice dust until the very last second...one second too late.
TheRealDavo
Someone’s getting fired ...
aggresivesnuggler
Well the dude took it like a champ.
ImgurianGeographic
Yea, she was way more calm than I would've been about everything. 30km/h she hit that broom at
Reezimus
Shes wearing a helmet and her hands are behind her back so she cant even bring her hands up. She couldve been screaming for all we know.
Lemmecheckthegoogle
RadishIsAMeat
Is she allowed another go as it's not her fault there was a broom there?
MayorPeteButt
yes
Ryebread91
What about equipment breaking like in the long jump?
Godomaut
Ice dust? So like, snow?
IWouldJustLikeToSay
No, ice dust.
