Apologies for posting such harrowing pictures (yes, I'm no different from those blasted news channels on TV... though I did not post the video... which is twice as disturbing with slow replays of Jamos Baranyai dislocating his elbow, played an excruciating 3 times over! I almost threw up).... but these pictures really got me pondering about the gruelling drill that these athletes go through. In the name of honour for the country (or for individual glory, take your pick) they undergo phenomenal amounts of training, sometimes bordering on the inhuman. Naturally, there is a breaking point. My heart goes out to Jamos Baranyai. He must be in a tremendous world of pain. I hope he recovers soon. But please, do not push yourself or your protesting body to a point where even life becomes of secondary antecedence to you.
