Olympic Fencer Hilariously Drops His Cell Phone In The Middle Of A Bout [Video]

Take 24-year-old Enzo Lefort, Olympic fencer from France, for example. There he is, in the freaking Olympics. Competing to hopefully win a medal in his sport, and bring honor to his country. In the middle of one of the most important moments in his life, something happens that brings the bout to a screeching halt. As if he were a mere mortal, he drops his cell phone.

Watch as the phone comes flying out of his pocket and hits the ground. He stumbles around a little, then locates his phone and picks it up.

He looks a little honte as he brings his phone to his coach, doesn’t he? You know his coach has told him a hundred times to not keep his phone in his pocket during competition.

I think this is one of the best Olympic moments I’ve ever seen.

By the way, Lefort lost this match, but he did move on to the next round.
