olympic mishap

springboard

very fast 110 h race in lausanne, switzerland. the great liu xiang of china, who previously equalled the former wr at the athens olympics, sets a new world reord of 12.88. dominique arnold also goes under the previous wr with a time of 12.90. china will go crazy if liu xiang wins this race in beijing.
