French pole vaulter Anthony Ammirati's quest for an Olympic medal ended in unexpected agony this past Saturday.

In a dramatic turn of events, Ammirati's attempt to qualify for the medal rounds was thwarted when he collided with the crossbar, resulting in a painful disqualification.
«It's a big disappointment. I'm a bit gutted,» he said, according to a translation of the French Athletic Federation page by Athlon Sports. «The conditions were good. It's the first time I've started a competition without any stress. As I was a total outsider, I only had one goal: to play with the crowd. I was almost there.»

Ammirati had already cleared jumps of 5.40 and 5.60 meters on his initial attempts. However, during his critical third attempt at 5.70 meters, disaster struck. His attempt ended with a jarring hit as his private area struck the crossbar, causing him to fall and miss out on a chance for a medal.
