The Unobstructed View
ok so heres the scene, The World Student Games. it's the opening ceremony at the don valley stadium in sheffield. in front of a packed stadium, the torch relay arrives and the flame is handed to Britains recently returned female astronaut Helen Sharman, couldnt be in a safer pair of hands.
i cant find a vid of what happened next but heres a newspaper report of what happened................
The World Student Games made a stumbling start yesterday in Sheffield, England, when British astronaut Helen Sharman tripped, extinguishing the blazing torch being used to light the ceremonial flame.
As she made her way along the red carpet, heading for the ceremonial bowl, she stumbled. The torch crashed in embers to the ground, leaving Sharman stunned and confused.
even worse was she went to light the big torch and held up an empty bowl......and the thing lit. the stupid cow !!!!
