Damn, what a fall. Always gives this 'weak' feeling in the stomach when someone stays down without any movement for so long, then is treated for so long and then the helicopter flies in..

What was disturbing are those officials, who were standing two meters away and literally did nothing to help the visibly unconscious Ford, moments after the accident...

That very much boggled my mind as well, I was quietly yelling at them to at the very least go check on him..

 

Just saw the replay by the way and yeah, that knee is gone. Jesus, it's that kind of accident where one's lower leg moves completely independent from the upper leg, that's horrible. I really hope the treatment took so long because of that, and not because of something more threatening to his overall health.

Ledecka goes second, but still over a second down.  Goggia’s “Miracle run” from the stadium announcer.  :cheer:
 

Tippler now...

 

I’m learning a lot of German words from this stadium announcer. “Miracle run” “Super nice” - German has become a lot easier since I tried to learn it at school.

protocols...the only people allowed to help fallen skiers are those in charge of the official medical staff...

 

and especially in cases like that, if you're not fully aware of the situation, you could make a lot of damages by trying to move someone who could have broken vertebra...

 

by the way, Ford regained his consciousness when he was on the helicopter and according to the first news he still recognizes the people talking to him...

 

so, likely he "only" has his knees to be evaluated for further problems, but it looks that there are no big consequences to his head and neck area, which is the most important thing...

      got a bronze medal in baseball on the final day, which means  are the only NOCs to leave without single medal in the end.    It'll be a busy year for them though, so plenty more chances at the Central American and Caribbean Games and South American Games.

      it's great that some top regional talent took part too. It's a nice way to open up the outdoor season, honestly.

      Wrestling in the USA is strong thanks to its universities, but surprisingly, they are not very strong in judo. I wonder why?

      Wrestling UWW European Championships 2026

      By copravolley · Posted

      Women's wrestling has been at the Olympics for first time in 2004, just like women`s boxing, so it used to be a men's sport on the all world, maybe without Japan. But Russia retains the culture of the former USSR, where women could always participate in almost all sports, unlike Iran under the ayatollahs, etc Sure, Russia has its various Islamic republics: Dagestan, Chechnya- but the 50 years of the USSR and its ideas and propagandas about life and sport still had a significant impact for people. However, the cradle of women's wrestling is and always has been Japan-, but judo has probably always been more popular there, so I'm sure a lot of talented girls go there, not wrestling.

      Russia was never a super power in women's wrestling, they are just another decent team.   why ? that's simple. most of top Russian freestyle wrestlers are from Dagestan. probably 7-8 from the current team in Albania. and I assume in that region women are not encouraged to take this sport. if you remove Dagestan from Russia, their men's freestyle team will do more or less the same.   I'm not familiar with the Russian culture in general but I assume even nation-wide (and not only Dagestan) this is considered the men's sport.    of course in the World Championship those 3 teams you mentioned can go toe to toe with Russia or even do better. from this Russian team I only see Sadulaev to win the gold at worlds. (+ Sidakov if he returns and maybe Uguev depending on Japan's squad )   still the depth of Russian freestyle is unmatched. they can send their #5 guy and be still competitive for a top 6 finish, can't say the same about any other team.

      In the women's, however, Russia took a strong beating from Ukraine, but surely there wasn't a all top-tier Russian girls here? Judo, in my opinion, is developing better and more countries are at the leading countries, than wrestling. Situation is slightly better in the world than in Europe, because we do have the USA, Japan and Iran. Unfortunately in Europe, this sport is a joke and is becoming a second table tennis, where people from other countries are naturalized and win medals for others, even though they have nothing in common with them.
