Bulgarian Georgi Georgievs right leg just fold in the middle of his trial heats.
The lower leg was straight out of the knee and television images are brutally ugly.
- It was a really serious injury. Both cruciate ligaments and tendons and all that stabilizes the knee must have gone off at once, says TV sports expert commentator Anders Gärderud.
From the stands saw it not as horrible and shocked Bulgarian rose on shaky legs afterwards.
- It is only in television images you see how bad it was, says Gärderud.
