Warning: These Female Athlete Fails Are So Awful, You Can’t Look Away…

Too Much Weight

20-year-old Genesis Gomez Rodriguez let the 106kg weight get the best of her after she competed and fainted with the weight above her head in the Pan Am games in Ontario, Canada. She steadily and successfully lifted the weight above her head, before dropping it behind her and falling to the mat shortly thereafter. Had the weight not fallen behind her, it could have caused a serious to fatal injury.

Thank goodness Genesis made a quick recovery, but she had the world in quite a scare with this terrifying, dramatic and potentially fatal incident. After recovering, Genesis successfully lifted the 109kg weight and ended up winning the silver medal.
