Yeah, I have seen it floating around for many years. I just have never seen an explanation of when and where it happened and the resulting damage.

It is a tragic tale of blind slavery to fashion. That young man was somehow convinced that his hair didn't make him look stupid.

I remember seeing it on TV around when it happened. I just cannot remember (or find on line) any details about it.

I think he was running so damn fast he could only focus on the finish line.
Or...... he was so charged up he didnt plan to stop for anything.

Looks like a long/triple jumper and he appeared to have his head down until almost the last moment.

Track meets are such semi-organized chaos that I am surprised this does not happen more often.

Damn you. I was all excited there for a second that the mystery would be solved.

Oh well, I'll chalk it up as a bump.

It does look surreal, edited somehow.

Edit: the guys expression in the BG may be legit.
