Aengus Meldon was solidly on his way to victory in his race when the unthinkable happens -- a pole vault bar falls onto him. Meldon manages to shake it off, but it gets tangled around his legs, severely slowing him down and causing him to lose his first place spot.
While this in itself is exciting to watch, what makes the video even better is the commentator. It's clear the commentator cannot believe what is happening on the track. "It's like Spiderman threw something at him!" he gushes. "Spiderman attacked him!"
He got it exactly right.
