MONTREAL - American Chelsea Davis hit her nose on the diving board during the 3-meter springboard preliminaries Friday at the World Swimming Championships.

Davis was attempting an inward 2 1/2 somersault in the tuck position when she struck the bridge of her nose on the board and scraped her head. Blood poured down her face, stunning spectators, some of whom covered their faces.

I always wondered if that ever happens when divers get so close to the board. Yeesh. Sounds like she got a few stiches and she'll be okay.
