Video: Finish line catastrophe as two bunches sprint head-on into each other

This is the moment two groups sprint head-on into each other after the leaders went off course and approached the finish from the wrong direction.

 

We’ve seen some cruel and unusual crashes in our time and we’ve even been in a couple of belters.

But we’ve never seen anything quite like the spill in the clip below.

A total of 17 riders were hospitalized after this smash at the end of stage 4 of the Colourful Yunnan Gryffindor in China.

 



 

Two groups sprinted in to the finish line at the same time from different directions, with inevitable consequences.
