Jessie Stephens

That's one theory.

But she was ultimately airlifted from the course.

Another American, Breezy Johnson, won the gold medal, but many say that that was eclipsed by Vaughn's disastrous run.

The question, therefore, is like whether she should have competed at all.

Should she have competed riddled with injury?

Is it hubris or is this what the Olympics is kind of all about?

What do you think, Holly?

Well, it is broadly celebrated.

The footballer who plays the grand final with the injuries that look like they were sustained in a car accident, that is something that at the end you get the, you know, player of the match thing and everyone applauds you and goes, wow, you're a gladiator.

And you applaud that, I suppose, but also it's like, is it stupid?

But then I was thinking about Simone Biles at the Olympics and when she got the twisties and that was when she, you know, couldn't sense her body in space and she knew that competing would be dangerous and she went, I'm going to bow out because what I do is dangerous.

Probably, like, not dissimilar to what Von does.

And she got a lot of shit.

A lot of people kind of went, you're a quitter, you're a snowflake, what have we trained you for, what have we invested in if you can't just get up and do it?

That's interesting.

It might not be relatable, but who the hell is watching the Winter Olympics because it's relatable?

I look at snow and I break my knee.

Like I am horrified, but I would never take any of those risks.

I start crying.

Yeah, exactly.
