14 DAY TRIAL // This video of jumps, falls, trips and kicks from the 2012 Olympics already has about 1 million views, and it was posted just 2 months ago. The original Olympics fails compilation video was released by BailBlog, just after the events.
This is the abbreviated, YouTube friendly version of the fail compilation. Some of the footage is taken during periods of time off between events, while other sections in the mesh-up just show random sports-related fails.
The imagery can still be a little rough. One athlete looked like he actually dislocated his knee, and might be left with permanent ligament damage. Something like this could ruin this man's career in sports.
These athletes trained daily and have probably worked for years to secure a spot on the Olympic team.
