Jakob Mandlbauer of Austria was hospitalized Saturday but somehow escaped serious injury after the four-man bobsled that he was piloting flipped over on the track, and he was dragged along the track with his head hitting the wall, according to reports from the Winter Olympics. Mandlbauer was examined on the scene of the horrific crash by medical professionals, transported via stretcher and brought to a Cortina hospital. An Austrian teammate told reporters that Mandlbauer is “alert, he is conscious, he was moving hands, moving his legs,” according to NBC News.
