The CRAZIEST Mistakes In Olympic Games History..

Anyone can make

mistakes

, even the most experienced athletes known for their extraordinary abilities, but what happens when these

mistakes

are made on the world's biggest sporting stage? Yes, we are talking about the Olympic Games where some crazy mistakes by participants and organizers became the talk. the city or actually the interested world keep watching because we are going to tell you about the most incredible ones that have happened over the years, starting with the Luxembourg national anthem disaster, do you know what the national anthem of that country sounds like, the band at the helsinki

olympic

games

in 1952 also did not imagine their surprise when they had to play it after joseph josie bartel won the 1500 meter race no one expected him to win no one was even thinking about luxembourg when the race started and why they would do it when record holder athletes like werner lueg and roger bannister were participating in the game but he won and we bet it was very surprising for the band who were left blank with no idea how to play their country's anthem borah bartel had to accept his medal without for his anthem to play In context, he even burst into tears during the ceremony, perhaps it was because Luxembourg won the first gold medal, but it is possible that it was the band's sad attempt to play the right tunes that made him cry .

Then there is the 1988 pigeon tragedy during the longest time at the Olympics. Opening ceremonies often included an act of releasing doves as a symbol of peace. In fact, tradition says that in ancient times carrier pigeons were released into an athlete's hometown if they won a competition to inform the townspeople of the victory and allow them to prepare to celebrate the day. the arrival of the athlete, but everything stopped after the soul

games

in 1988, when the ceremony took a super dark turn, hundreds of pigeons were released as usual, but the birds decided to perch in the Olympic cauldron instead of flying in the air, you can already guess what happened.

Then the cauldron was lit and the birds met their sad end. We can't imagine how traumatic that incident was for the audience. It's safe to say that no birds have been used in any opening ceremonies, as next we have the story of an accidental hero that is one of the few stories where mistakes have led to an athlete winning a game instead of the sad opposite: it was salt lake city in 2002 the competition was speed skating and the winner was steven john bradbury in a disastrous turn of events four of his rivals fell and collapsed on the ice of the rink, which caused a human collision that gave Bradbury the opportunity to skid alone across the finish line.

We talked about being lucky and would you believe this wasn't Bradbury's first accident? His career involved several other horrific injuries, including two life-threatening accidents and a crash in Montreal that led to him receiving 111 stitches. At least it wasn't him who got hurt in the 2002 games, but it was one of the few times fortune favored him over his rivals, even Bradbury himself, said there are days when God It smiles at you and this was the only one for me. I guess the guy knew he had a streak of luck that was going very badly, it didn't last the rest of his career and then we have the rivalry between north and south korea you would think the organizers of the

olympic

games would at least not get involved with that rivalry, but they did it at the 2012 London games, the South Korean flag was displayed next to the North Korean players by mistake, this caused the team to leave the Lanzar in protest for more than an hour which we put on the air is humane, but isn't Luxembourg too first?

So the Olympic organizers don't do their homework before the games start. Below, a meme worthy of a Stefan Feck dive, even professional. Divers have their days and it seems like this German athlete was having a super bad one at the London games in 2012. The guy did his jump well but landed in the water on his back, making it the worst dive of his career. and of the game that He finished 29th in the round and if any of you are wondering, yes, that was last position, but at least it didn't hurt anything other than his pride, unlike American jumper Greg Luganus in 1988, who was hit head so strong on the diving board that he needed. after all, he still won gold, although I suppose he was a better athlete than Feck, after all, there is also this terrible tennis mistake that occurred at the 1912 Stockholm Summer Games, where Swedish professional tennis player Sigrid Fick made a Terrible mistake hitting fellow striker Setterwall in the face with his racquet that has to be painful it's pretty clear that mistake threw the duo off their game and they lost the gold six four six zero sucks for a setter wall is all we'll say then there is Yano's dislocated elbow it sounds painful, it seems that way too thanks Regarding the 148 kilo weight that the athlete tried to lift at the Beijing Olympics, the guy's scream was heard throughout the field as he collapsed, we can't even tell that I was having a bad day because that would be an understatement of the year. check out this unfortunate pole snap In the world of gymnastics, the pole vault has to be the riskiest and we bet it takes a special kind of bravery to even try to launch yourself into the air like that, because what if you pole broke in the middle of the game and you fell, that has to be ugly, right?

The worst thing is that when the fiberglass breaks, you also have the possibility of being hit by jagged glass. You don't need to imagine the pain because we have a video that proves what this is. It happened to Cuban pole vaulter Lázaro Borges, whose jerk broke in half while trying to climb at the London Olympics. Previously he was a world silver medalist whose unfortunate relegation caused him to miss out on gold and the tournament in which he missed out on his place in the final and then us. Take the case of the judges suspended from the 1904 Summer Olympics in St.

Louis, in a boxing fight between the American athlete Roy Jones Jr. and the South Korean Park Ciun, the judges made a clear or deliberate error that they know and They awarded Chun the gold even though he had landed only 32 punches compared to Jones' 86, even though people in the arena were sure Jones had won until the South Korean volunteers began celebrating even before the announcement. . You will be glad to know that the judges were also later suspended. Bad Jones didn't get to experience victory from him the first time, but at least he got his revenge. Then there's this high-profile Olympic mistake that caused Ray Robinson and Eddie Hart to miss the 100-meter race at the 1972 Munich games.

Basically, what happened was that the sprinters were given incorrect start times to the second qualifying round of the event, yes, can you believe that one would think that in a high-profile Olympic game the least the organizers could do was get the timings right, but they didn't, and Robinson and Coach Hart He also didn't realize until it was too late, the duo ended up watching the game instead of participating in it, waiting for it. ABC TV Truck talks about bad luck and that is not the first time it has happened, this has happened before. to vim asahas in 1960.

However, the sad thing about his story is that he was his country's first Olympian, but because he was given the wrong start time, he missed his chance to win gold and spent the event sleeping in instead of participating in their country. wait eight more years for another Olympian to represent them at the games, then we have Jacob Ellis' unfortunate jump when you're in the race for gold and you're sure you'll win the game you want to finish the round in. Poor Lindsay Jacob Ellis, the American snowboarder, had the same idea at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin when she added a supposedly well-designed method to her final jump that turned out to be a big mistake because she caught an edge and fell.

Her rival Tanya Frieden of Switzerland gained an advantage and overtook her to win gold. Call it a lack of style mistake. She simply proves that sometimes less is more, much more and lastly we have the 1936 Olympic food binge, who wouldn't? We've binged on comfort food when a special day has turned sour, we know we have, but at least we weren't in line to win gold in an Olympic event. Too bad Thomas Hamilton Brown was this South African boxer who binged on food after losing. Shortly afterwards, in the first round match of the 1936 Berlin Games, the judges discovered that they had made a scoring error and that Hamilton had won the game, but it was too late because thanks to his drunkenness he had already gained 5 pounds. pounds and I couldn't get rid of it at the weigh-in the next day.

Now it is a struggle that we can all identify with and that's it for this video. Which of these mistakes do you think he was the
