2024 Olympics: Pole Vaulter’s Olympic Dream Shattered By His Own Penis (video)
French Pole vaulter Anthony Ammirati saw his Olympic dream go up in smoke in unfortunate circumstances with his penis causing his downfall.
The 21-year-old, competing in front of his home crowd, looked all set to clear 5.70m and take a major step towards the final of his event, before disaster struck.
As the Frenchman prepared to relinquish his pole, his own manhood grazed the bar with enough force to send it crashing to the floor, thus ending his hopes of a medal.
Ammirati had already cleared two heights before his bulge brought a premature end to his competition. He eventually finished 12th with a height of 5.60 in Group A.
