Skiier Lindsey Vonn Was Airlifted After Horrendous Accident At The World Championships
Warning: This is a scary crash.
Olympic gold medalist Lindsey Vonn was airlifted today after a horrendous accident in the super-G event of the 2013 World Championships in Austria. According to the Alpine Press, doctors on site suspect she suffered a tibial plateau fracture as her knee twisted violently. Warning: The video is a little scary.
3. Vonn was bundled up and attached to a helicopter, which then flew her to a hospital.
5. This was the reaction of Tina Maze, who completed her run just before Vonn.
UPDATE: Vonn suffered a torn ACL and MCL in her right knee, as well as a lateral tibial plateau fracture, which could impact her status for the 2014 Olympic Winter Games.

lyndseym 3 months agoI’ve had accusers worse than this skiing and snowboarding. don’t get me wrong. she’s obviously moving at a good clip but the fact that this video came with a warning is just silly. I hope Lindsey makes a full recovery from this. it’s unfortunate these accidents seem to be happening with more frequency.
