This is typical Canadian luck. Not only a 4th place, but losing out a medal to the countback....

 

I know this is not true on paper but it feels like the Netherlands does well in every sport. 

Netherlands doing well in every sport? Well, we are pretty good in speedskating, but every sport? :lol:
For me it's the other way around ... it feels like Canada is good at all sports.

You have to take off from behind the line.  But you cannot measure a jump as being 1.25cm because your foot has never left the ground. I suppose that is the rule, you are have to start on the ground (obviously!), leave the ground and the jump is measured from the position where you land. 

He's talking about the other foot being the "jumping foot." For example if it was your right foot that was 1cm over the line you technically jumped from your left foot in the previous step.

 

Obviously this isn't in the spirit of the competition. I imagine there is some rule that states your "jumping foot" is your closest step to the fault line.

Olympic silver medalist Abdi Nageeye is next to drop off, after what looks to be an excellent attack by Tamirat Tola.
