Austrian alpine skier Daniel Hemetsberger suffered a serious accident during training on the eve of the Winter Olympic Games in Italy.
Idman.Biz reports that the incident occurred during downhill training.
The 34-year-old athlete, losing his balance, headed towards the safety nets and crashed into an obstacle.
As a result of the impact, his helmet came off, and his nose and mouth area were covered in blood.
Although D. Hemetsberger was able to get to his feet on his own, it is assumed that he lost several teeth, according to photos and information.

The World Cup medalist later reported that his condition was relatively good and that he had not lost consciousness.
