Tripping Over Hurdles
Stumbling and tripping are common occurrences in hurdle events, requiring keen awareness of hurdle placement and field organization. Typically, runners attempt to recover and continue racing after knocking over a hurdle.
However, in 2021, Vania Stambolova from Bulgaria couldn’t salvage her race after a fall. She eventually got back up and completed the race, but the epic tumble was etched in everyone’s memory.
