When life imitates art

A French pole vaulter at the Olympics missed his chance at the gold after his manhood hit the bar and knocked it off.  Because my sense of humor is similar to a 12 year old boy’s, I am finding this to be hilarious.

This seems to be a more common issue than one might think.



  1. Since the vaulter go to a maximum elevation, they are coming straight down, so it does happen a lot.Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy back in history, I used to watch a lot of track & Field, Sergei Bubka was one of my favorites

  2. Just for clarification, his manhood knocked the bar off, or the bar knocked his manhood off? Somehow, I'm inclined to go with the latter. Since it's France, they should've just gone ahead and lowered the bar.
