Snowboarding nearly killed Shaun White
Back in 2018, while preparing for his Olympic appearance in Pyeongchang, White had the worst crash of his life. The magical man was trying out a difficult trick and misjudged his position, leading to an ugly gash on the forehead and a cut on the upper lip.
Notably, White had to get over 60 stitches on his face. He was horrified after the incident and claimed he couldn’t even look at his own self.
“I’ve had a broken bone, but it’s not like you visually see the snapped bone. This was like … you can’t avoid it … I’m looking in the mirror-like, ‘I don’t even recognize this person,” White had revealed.
