Usain Bolt was in the midst of his 20-minute long victory lap in Beijing, reveling in his historic fourth 200-meter victory in a row. As he jogged near the raised camera track, a photographer, who didn’t see Bolt, ran into that track, careening into the world’s greatest sprinter and sending both tumbling to the ground.

Though Bolt got up holding his leg around his Achilles, which surely caused Jamaica to hold its collective breath, he seemed fine and continued jogging around the track and taking pictures with the crowd. It was good that no one was seriously injured, because then we couldn’t make fun of the fact that the photographer was riding a Segway, which makes the whole affair at least 75% funnier.

Bolt showed Universal Sports a cut on his leg afterward but had no worries that he’d be affected by the injury. When he saw the video the first time, Bolt joke, “Oh, took me out like! Bro!”

All things considered, Bolt is tremendously lucky a cut leg is all he received in the encounter. The spill was a few inches from becoming an injury that might have kept him out of commission while he tries to make history next summer in Rio.
