Kamila Sellier Leaves Hospital After Horrific Accident at Milan Games

Polish speed skater Kamila Sellier has shared positive news with fans regarding her health after a terrifying accident at the Olympic Games. The athlete was struck in the face by another racer's skate blade, leading to a deep wound and swelling that prevented her from opening her left eye for three days. French and Polish media emphasize that the sportswoman was extremely lucky, as the blade stopped right next to her eyeball. Sellier herself published photos of her protective equipment, indicating that it was the reinforced glasses that prevented permanent disability. Safety in short track became a priority after a tragic accident in 1995, when a blade severed a skater's carotid artery. Since then, mandatory cut-resistant suits, helmets, and protective goggles have been introduced. Simultaneously, a storm erupted in the winter sports community around legendary skier Lindsey Vonn. The American, who returned to competition after a knee replacement, confessed that during her recent fall she was close to losing her leg. However, her determination has been met with criticism from sports psychologists. Experts accuse her of promoting a culture of risk over health, which could be a harmful example for young athletes. Vonn refutes the accusations, claiming her fight is proof of the strength of the human spirit, but voices about her irresponsibility are intensifying in German-language media. „Dziękuję wszystkim za wsparcie. Najgorsze już za mną, teraz czas na regenerację w domu.” (Thank you all for your support. The worst is behind me, now it's time for recovery at home.) — Kamila Sellier The final days of the Games were also overshadowed by a behavioral scandal in the Finnish national team. The ski jumping coach was disciplinarily removed from the Olympic village after a series of incidents related to alcohol abuse. The Finnish federation confirmed that the coach repeatedly appeared at sports facilities while intoxicated, damaging the team's image. This is another case in the history of the Winter Olympics where the pressure for results and the tournament atmosphere lead to disciplinary regulation violations by technical staff. 3 dni — the skater could not open her left eye On social media, Sellier's recovery has resonated widely. Thousands of comments appeared under her post, including from global sports icons like Cristiano Ronaldo, showing how strongly the Polish athlete's accident has moved global public opinion. Although the athlete avoided the worst, she now faces a long psychophysical rehabilitation aimed at overcoming the fear barrier before returning to the ice.

Perspektywy mediów: Liberal media emphasize the need to tighten safety standards in competitive sports. Conservative media praise the heroism of Sellier and Vonn as a manifestation of the traditional fighting spirit.
