Предательский трамплин: спортсмен упал на открытии олимпийского бассейна в Париже (видео)

French Olympian Alexis Gendar shared his feelings about an unfortunate incident during a ski jump.

The 2024 Olympics in Paris opened new pool. However, the opening ceremony was slightly overshadowed by an unfortunate incident involving a member of the French Olympic team, Alexis Gendar.

BILD writes about this.

The ceremony, which was attended by French President Emmanuel Macron, was broadcast on television throughout the country. In particular, the audience was shown the performances of the best French ski jumpers, including Zhandar. However, at the most crucial moment, the athlete’s foot slipped on the springboard and he simply fell into the water.

“I fell in front of the president. I fell in front of all of France. I wasn't hurt. There was a little blood, but that's normal. My back is fine, but my ego is not,” Gendar wrote on social networks.
