It's usually the skateboarders that are left bloodied and bruised, but at the Olympics on Thursday, it was the turn of the cameraman to dust himself off.
Australia's Kieran Woolley opened up his park skateboarding campaign in Tokyo, which is making its debut at the Olympics, in style with a faultless first run.
However, right at the end of his opening run in the qualification heats which initially put him first, Woolley inadvertently smashed into the nearby cameraman after performing a last-gasp rail grind.
