From this comment, it seems like you're blaming Han for the accident.

Considering Han was going about 15x the speed Hanyu was at that point, your comment should be reversed even though it's silly to try and point fingers.

I am not blaming anyone because no one is to blame, from the posted video it looked like Yuzu was faceing backwards and had no time to react while Han did the best he could to avoid it. My comment was out of line and I take it back because I never ment to point fingers at either one you are right it is silly to point fingers under such circumstances
 
Remember what happened to Natasha Richardson - Richardson sustained a head injury when she fell while taking a beginner skiing lesson. The injury was followed by a lucid interval, when Richardson seemed to be fine and was able to talk and act normally. Paramedics and an ambulance which initially responded to the accident were told they were not needed and left. Refusing medical attention twice, she returned to her hotel room and about three hours later was taken to a local hospital after complaining of a headache. She was transferred from there by ambulance to Hôpital in critical condition and was admitted about seven hours after the fall. The following day she was flown to Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, where she died on 18 March at the age of 45. :cry:

But this is different because I think Yuzu only wants to skate and to go to hospital after. The Richardson woman never got really checked. Whatever, Yuzu is adult, is his responsability.
 
I really hope Maxim is the next person we see on the ice...
 
What the flying ****, oh man I know figure skating drama can get intense but man my heart actually skipped.

I hope Yan and Yuzu are okay :'(
 
looks like neither lost consiousness, but that doesnt rule out shake to the head

agreed, and the chin is part of the head, and from the slow mo there is definite some impact to the head area. What degree it is is unknown to us all in the forum for now.
 
My head is exploding!!!! I'm not happy at all!! This is too much!!!
 
I really like Dornbush and this program. He started off really well, and run out of steam towards the end. This is how you music edit a program with lyrics. Nice rendition of Coldplay classics.
 
omg what is this competition coming to, is han yan even okay???
