SKI-CAN-MEN-DOWNHILL-FILES
(FILES) -- A file photo taken on November 24, 2010 shows Austrian skier Hans Grugger reacting after crossing the finish line during the first training in the Men's Downhill of the FIS Ski World Cup in Lake Louise, Canada. Grugger has undergone an operation on serious head injuries sustained during a fall in training for the World Cup downhill here on January 20, 2011. Grugger, starting fifth, hit the renowned Mausefalle (mousetrap) jump, just seconds after the start, at top speed and flew high. The 29-year-old, who has four World Cup victories to his name and finished 22nd in the Olympic downhill last year, tried to right himself for a better line into next sharp turn, but only succeeded in winging his skis across the slope. Grugger then tumbled and slid for 30 metres before coming to a halt, seemingly unconscious. He received immediate treatment on the course before being airlifted off the course by helicopter to Innsbruck hospital. AFP PHOTO/Bill Halliwell
