This Is The Most Gruesome Injury Of The Olympics So Far

WARNING: Graphic images.

This is Samir Ait Said, a member of the French Olympic gymnastics team.

On Saturday during the vault qualification competition, Said broke his left leg during a bad landing. Like, really really bad.

:( :( :( :( :(

The sound of his leg breaking apparently echoed throughout the arena.

I was at the Kevin Ware game. This was worse. Could hear Ait Said's leg snap

He was taken from the venue by the medical team.

Despite how bad his injury was, Said waved at the audience from the stretcher like a champ.

Hope he has a speedy recovery!
