Japanese pole vaulter Hiroki Ogita will be ruing the size of his phallus after it caused him to foul during the qualifying rounds in the men's event in Rio. As he began to drop back down towards the ground, his shin grazed the bar, causing it to wobble dangerously. The vaulter's arm then collected the bar as it began to fall. What a way to end your Olympic dream: thwarted by the one thing no man ever wants to let him down. If the death of Julius Caesar is the ultimate story of betrayal, this is a close second.
