Footage of him crashing featured on ABC's Wide World of Sports representing the Agony of Defeat . </P> <P> Bogataj competed as a Yugoslav entrant at the ski flying event in Oberstdorf, West Germany (now Germany) on 7 March 1970 . A light snow had begun falling at the start of the competition, and by the time Bogataj was ready for his third jump on the Heini Klopfer hill, the snow had become quite heavy . Midway down the inrun for his jump, Bogataj realised that the conditions had made the ramp too fast . He attempted to lower his center of gravity and stop his jump, but instead lost his balance completely and rocketed out of control off the end of the inrun, tumbling and flipping wildly, and crashing through a light retaining fence near a crowd of spectators before coming to a halt . Bogataj suffered a mild concussion and a broken ankle . </P>
