2006 Chicago Marathon - How NOT to end a race!

omg it would suck soooo much if he didnt finish the race.

i feel more sorry for daniel njenga. he finished 2, 3, 3 respectivly in previous chicago marathons. he is actually in "Spirit of the marathn".

Very true, he is really an amazing runner and a cool guy too.

ur a dumbass...He looks like he's on ice when he slides on both feet. He wasn't wearing wheelies and slipping doesn't happen in cross trainers on asphalt.

I think you misunderstood me, he fell cause he hit the wall, I'm not saying there was no slip, check out frame 0:08 and you will see that he went down BEFORE hitting the matt, it is clearly visible, if he wouldn't had hit the wall, he wouldn't have fallen so easily. Just a theory of mine, but I asure you that matt didn't have anything to do with his fall.

1:13 He slips on the mat which has a logo on it, its not really a debate...

Then we need to find the asshole that spilled baby oil on that mat for him, lol.

I finally saw something like this in person. My dad ran in it that year and I actually was close enough to get a picture of it. At first I thought he was just layin down, but not for very long. Glad he was alright.

BS HOW DO YOU KNOW ITS NOT THE MAT

Simply because athletes fall all the time at the end of marathons due to exaustion, try watching it in slow motion so that you can see how his arms led him to fall backwards while the rest of his body made no resistance oncehowever, also who else fell cause of the mat? That guy was bled dry, hit the wall, and all it took was a little arm movement and gravity did the rest.
