Again!

After the bad falls of ski star Cyprien Sarrazin (30/cerebral hemorrhage and emergency surgery) and Clara Direz (29) in Bormio (Italy), the next top athlete, Gino Caviezel (32), is hit on Sunday. And that shortly after the start of the race.

Olympic downhill becomes a horror course!

Shortly after 11.30 a.m. the Swiss will start at the Super-G. In the small uphill section in the middle of the course he passes a gate and loses his right ski. As a result, Caviezel slides many meters across the hard snow and stops short of a safety net. He immediately raises himself for help, his arm bitten and screaming in pain! The next bad and probably serious fall! Caviezel is then transported away by helicopter.
