This guy came back and WON the race......badass

It should be noted that the crash was in the Downhill. The win was in Giant Slalom.

That being said (and I remember watching this) it is amazing that anyone could do that. Most if not all that crash in the middle of a Downhill race are out of any further competition - for weeks - if not for the season with multiple broken bones, ligament tears and whatever.

Maier was a bricklayer between seasons and I think he was actually made of bricks himself.
