Indian luge athlete Shiva Keshavan made an incredible recovery after falling off his sled to complete his practice run during Friday's Olympic events.
Keshavan fell off the sled and onto his stomach around one of the later turns in the course, but was able to grab the sled, pull himself back onto it and keep going.
Interestingly enough, there are no penalties for completing a run after falling off a sled, so if this were a real luge run, Keshavan's time of 1:01.64 would have counted.
