A series of unexpected and humorous mishaps occurred during various athletic events, from runners getting tangled in ropes and long jumpers losing their wigs mid-air, to mascots colliding with barricades and divers flopping into the water.
One runner narrowly avoided disaster when a track worker almost interfered, while another athlete mistakenly received the wrong medal. A football player hilariously thanked both his wife and girlfriend during an interview, and an Olympic torchbearer was interrupted by a prankster attempting to extinguish the flame. These blunders and more highlight the unpredictable nature of sports, where anything can happen at any moment.
