Runner Victor Kiplangat ran the wrong way but still managed to win the gold medal in the men's marathon at the Commenwealth Games in Birmingham. Kiplangat had a healthy lead towards the end of the gruelling morning run through the streets of Birmingham, but his final kilometre or so was not all plain sailing.
As he approached the end, the Ugandan national took a wrong turn and began to run in the wrong direction away from the finish line. The BBC commentary team were as shocked as anyone, as they noticed Kiplangat head the wrong way from an aerial camera shot.
The footage showed the leader quickly turn back round after realising his mistake, with a cry of 'Oh has he gone the wrong way? Oh no, no, no, no, no!" heard by commentator Steve Cram as he watched on.
