The Olympic Summer Games are upon us and apparently there's been some injuries that have happened.

I'm scared, but we're going to learn something together.

These spins, these dismounts, this is where the danger comes in.

Get to the vertical for the last move, but on the high bar, she's working quickly, efficiently.

Concussion, broken nose, zygomatic arch fracture.

If she had a cervical injury there, that would be a really bad way.

You got to support the neck when you do that.

From a concussion standpoint, once you get the first one, just because you feel fine, doesn't mean you should go back in because now your brain's even more sensitive to worse injury.

A lot of cauliflower ear, a lot of dislocations.

Falling on a weird angle like that on your elbow, it could be very devastating.

In situations like this, it's usually more of a simple dislocation where you're tearing ligaments.

Complicated or complex one would be your broken bones.

What can be dangerous is if you do have significant damage to that area, especially with a broken bone, you can tear arteries, which can cause massive bleeding from the brachial artery,

but also massive nerve damage that can then predispose to issues with the hand.

And as we know, the hand is very important, as occupational therapists can attest, so tipping my cap to occupational therapists and all the great work they do.

Torn ligaments are painful injuries to deal with at the beginning of times, but for Olympic gymnast Keri Strug, it had to be ignored. - Very painful.

When her US teammate left the vault having just missed the 9.4 needed to win the gold, it was down to Strug's remaining two attempts to secure the top medal.

When she limped back after falling during her first attempt, something had gone very wrong.

Strug knew that she had to land her second attempt as she made her way to the start.

Her second landing involved the slightest of touchdown on both feet and then a hop to the uninjured one to stay upright.

Her efforts carried the team to gold at Atlanta 1996.

And also what the announcer didn't say, is that when you have a tear of ligament like that , especially initially, you get this massive inflammatory response where the knee essentially locks up on you.

So you have bruising in the area, you have swelling in the area, edema, all this buildup so that you have no range of motion with that.

And you don't even know how she sprinted through it.

BMX, oh my god, everyone's falling on their faces.

Some concussions, especially with that level of speed and deceleration, lots of symptoms, brain fog, difficulty concentrating, light sensitivity, noise sensitivity.

Imagine you're a young person now, every time you go out to a party, there's loud noises and lights, you can't even be comfortable.

And that's really the culmination of the camaraderie that we see.

Just a really awkward fall into the sandpit.

He had a hamstring tendon tear, a knee contusion, a tear in the ligaments of the right foot.

I'm surprised he didn't tear his PCL based on the motion of his knee moving back.

I guess a foot got caught on the jump, on the explosive part of the jump.

That's going to be a really long rehab process, 8 to 12 months.

The pole vault as an event scares the life out of me.

You're going fast, there's a giant sharp object, and it reminds me of the Knight's Tale, jousting.

Watch what's happening here on her third attempt.

She looks okay, but where is that piece flying to?

There are multiple instances of this happening at the Olympics.

Some people thought I'm a first person shooter, but no.

I was worried because of where I paused it that that piece was shooting out into the air.

That's what I always say, if you fall off the horse, get another pole.

Just like in Formula One, you want to be in pole position.

If the pole, the first pole isn't in the north, try going south.

Contribute to your local polling station.

Did he get hit by the stick on his finger?

That's just a freak accident because it's not usually what happens.

Good luck trying to avoid your pole from getting cut.

We're out of the pole clips now so, glad you got it out of your system.

Francisco Lazaro overheats. This Portuguese marathon runner was his country's flag bearer during the 1912 Summer Games in Stockholm.

This only makes the tragedy hit that much harder.

It's very easy to overheat when performing vigorous activity.

And overheating doesn't just mean temperature.

It also means fluid and electrolyte dysregulation.

And when you have that, that ultimately causes organ failure.

And when you have organ failure, then you have even bigger problems.
