There had been news about the death of an athlete in the 2010 winter Olympics at Vancouver. I haven't seen the whole details but it was said that he died during his final training run before the opening of the games. He flew out of the course and hit the metal pole, and at that instant he died.
Well that's a very sad news to start Valentines day and it was really a disaster. News even said that their country was to withdraw from the winter games. I felt really bad, since they came to compete and left without a fight, and tragic one at that.
Now questions are being raised, what are the safety measures being done at this moment to prevent accidents such as this from happening again in the future? Are there any assurances that the athletes participating in the competition will be safe?
In any way, I just hope that such accidents would be prevented from ever happening again, so that athletes can perform well without ever worrying about their own safety during the course of the competitions.
