.. which was lobbed onto the track behind the start of the 100metres?

The mind boggles 😯

23 8 secs: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/olympics/19143304

edit: they changed the video.

Yes, and immediately wondered if that person got lynched like they probably deserve!

Yes, was it thrown or did it blow over?

Looked like the official in the background got up quick and went towards the stand.

Looks like the marshal in the background saw something to stimulate him to move quickly

Damn beaten to it, i will never make an Olympic Official….. 😳

You could hear the clunk as it hit the track, sounded like a glass bottle to me.

Picture here.

Dutch judo bronze winner Edith Bosch appears to have dealt with the perp. She tweeted ‘Een dronken gast voor mij gooit een flesje op de baan!! IK HEB HEM GESLAGEN…. Ongelofelijk!!’

“A drunk guest in front of me throws a bottle on the track! I HAVE BEATEN HIM …. Unbelievable!”

I think…

Yep, hope they got him / her – particularly if the Judo team were in charge of restraining them.

It made her miss the race, evidently, and she is none too pleased!

‘GVD… Heb ik ook de 100 m gemist!!! Wat een PIEP!!’

Daily Telegraph report.

How terribly embarrassing.

What a tool, I doubt much will happen to the guy though, no doubt a slapped wrist and telling off.

Upgrade that Judo girl’s medal to a silver for public service.

I didn’t see it, did it have thw wrong advertising banner on it?

All that searching and security… Still as long as the bottle contained less than 100ml…

A small % of the population are loons, this is why gun ownership isn’t a good idea America.
