Olympic Crash

Anyone see the horrific crash of the chic cyclist? I thought at the very least a broken neck but I guess not. Lucky young girl. I did find it unsettling that her competitors just flew right by her lifeless body. I know it's sports but damn. And the American chic took the lead after the crash and with less than a kilometer to go got passed by three she ended up fourth....

I saw it live, then the first chase went by and you could see her just laying there. I thought her neck hit the corner of the curb but it must have just missed. I thought she might be paralyzed at best.

I saw it. The way she just laid there made me think she had broken her neck. I'm glad she's going to be okay.

Russian? Steroids?
Oh, and the Olympics have started? I hadn't noticed.
