Yesterdays WINNER [Olympics]

Feb 17, 2010

Whistler (AFP) - Slovenia's Petra Majdic said Wednesday's bronze in the women's sprint classic was like an Olympic 'gold with little diamonds' after she suffered a bruising tumble into a rocky stream just before the start.

The 30-year-old fell three metres down a bank and onto rocks after slipping in the warm-up, but still managed to battle through four rounds to finish third behind Norways's Marit Bjoergen and Poland's Justyna Kowalczyk of Poland.

In the fall she broke 4 ribs and one broken rib punctured her lunge.

True Warrior!

and then came jesus and turned her tears into w(h)ine!
Was pretty funny when she went into the gully :D

But yeah, respect to get the Bronze, she was well shaken up.
should have been nets there..... just like there had to be safety walls in the canal where the luge athlete died....

Don't get me started on the sliding track situation....

It's funny that when the Canadians were practicing (300+ times) there was a lot of safety around the track, but when the other nations have a go (3/4 each) there was fuck all.

The whole situation was a fuck up. The WIOC needs to take a long fucking look at themselves!

And again, you're right, there should have been nets just like in the downhill and snowboarding. If there wasn't, 10 athletes over the last 3 days would have been really injured.
