New Moves
Figure skaters are considered to be the most graceful athletes in the world when compared to the majority of other sports. If anything, when they make a dumb error, it makes it much more humiliating. Unfortunately, even professional figure skaters are subjected to these types of situations from time to time.
The cause of this incident is unclear; it’s possible that the figure skater just lost control and couldn’t stop themselves. Whatever the case, we’re sure they had a difficult time getting over it.
Get Out of the Way!
Falling down when jogging on the track is never a good thing, but the location of your fall can have a significant impact on how severe it is. It’s similar to the cycling analogy we discussed earlier: falling in the rear isn’t so bad, but falling in the lead is a recipe for disaster! This poor track runner seems to have flopped directly in front of a throng of runners behind her, which seems like a dangerous position.
Also, it’s kind of hilarious, but it’s not good. We can only hope that all of those athletes were able to leap over her or that she rolled out of the way rather fast.
