There's nothing like a bit of dark, British humour.

Yesterday we reported that French gymnast Samir Ait Said broke his leg when performing on the vault, crushing his Olympic dreams and leaving his leg snapped. It's utterly awful for him. The 26-year-old's reaction was one of shock but the legend even waved to the crowd as he was stretchered off.

Now footage has emerged of medical staff dropping his stretcher loading him into the ambulance, and it's one of those where you can't but help but laugh while also feeling terrible for the guy.

Here's the video:

In all seriousness, however, get well soon Samir and we hope you're competing at the top level again as soon as possible.
