Cameraman Takes Out Usain Bolt After Race Win

August 27, 2015 By Eric Reagan

As Usain Bolt was taking a victory lap after winning yet another 200-meter race in Beijing, a cameraman on a Segway bumped the track fence, which caused him to lose control. Then, he spun into the fastest man alive and took him down.

Fortunately, Bolt didn’t appear to be injured and the cameraman appeared to be more concerned about Bolt than anything else. So, hopefully, he’s okay too.

That camera to the head on the cameraman’s way down couldn’t have felt good though.

Here’s another view:

And just for kicks, here’s an aeriel view of the crash:
