The qualifications for today's World Cup competition did not go well for the Poles. Before the main competition, experts and fans they were counting on much better shape. Their expectations were met by Jakub Wolny, who improved his own result and jumped 131 meters.
Dramatic scenes during the World Cup. It looked bad
A moment before his by leaps and bounds However, a very dangerous accident occurred. Slovenian Domen Prevc suffered a painful fall. Already during the flight it was obvious that he had problems with his left ski, which started to slip away from under his leg. He failed to control the situation and when landing at 129.5 meters he completely lost control, his left ski ran over his right ski and then detached. The jumper lost his balance and fell, then flew several meters.
And although it looked very bad at first, fortunately nothing serious happened to him. After a while, he got up on his own and was given medical help. It was obvious that he was very stunned by the whole situation. His nose was also injured and blood poured out of it. Eurosport commentators also breathed a sigh of relief.
They reminded that this is not the first time this season that Prevc has had a painful fall. A similar situation occurred during qualifying in Lillehammer. Then the Slovenian also had problems with his left ski – its binding came loose – which resulted in a fall and resulted in him not advancing to the first round. However, that situation looked much less dangerous than today.
