At the 2000 Sydney Olympics, a shocking error on the vault nearly changed gymnastics forever. 🏟️ The vault was set 2 inches too low, throwing off athletes’ timing and leading to terrifying crashes, falls, and injuries. 🤯 Many gymnasts were shaken, some couldn’t finish, and the mistake went down as one of the most infamous controversies in Olympic history, proof that even the tiniest detail can put athletes at huge risk. 💔🤕 #gymnastics #vault #fails #Olympics #injured | SuperGymnastics
