VIDEO: These Athletes Were Competing When the Most EMBARRASSING Thing Happened!

Having to go to the bathroom is as normal as can be, but sometimes you don’t get to choose when you go and you have to go right now. While this is never fun and easy for anyone because it never seems to be at the right time, we usually get to hold it until we get to a safe space. Some are not that lucky and end up in a very shameful situation.

According to therichest.com, everyone poops, but not usually while competing in sports activities. However, if there’s anyone who should be excused for going “No. 2” in their pants, it should probably be athletes.

After all, the most serious of sportsmen have to exert incredible amounts of physical effort in the heat of competition. And when an athlete digs deep, especially when they’re not feeling all that well, there’s always the danger of unleashing a load of brown treasure.

Think about their situation. Marathon runners have to push themselves for hours on end. Participants in contact sports like American football and mixed martial arts have to endure getting hit hard, very possibly in the gut.

Surfers are quite a distance away from a rest room — unless they consider the ocean to be a communal toilet. So while messing up one’s underwear in the midst of sports competition may be disgusting, it should also be understandable, and to a certain extent, even a bit admirable.

John Cena may possess the physique of a Greek god, but even the WWE superstar doesn’t have absolute muscle control. This was proven by Cena’s very own admission during a Total Divas episode: “I pooped myself once. I had to throw away. It was in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, I had food poisoning and I still went out to wrestle.

Everybody knew — I was embarrassed.” Previously, Cena had told WWE magazine, “I took a DDT, rolled out and the time-keeper was there. I looked him in the eye and said, ‘Where do I puke?’ And he said, ‘Under the ring.’ So I went under the ring and puked and everyone knew it. But as I was puking I crapped my pants. Luckily, it was at the end of the match.”

After the 2008 Göteborg half-marathon, Sweden’s Micke Ekvall was nicknamed “bajsmannen,” which translates to “poop man.” He had finished the race at 21st, and photographs of him with a grimace on his face and brown liquid gushing down his legs immediately went viral after that.

Surprisingly, however, Ekvall has remained positive about the experience. When asked, “Did you ever consider stopping to clean off?” he answered, “No, I’d lose time. If you quit once, it’s easy to do it again and again and again.” And since then, the resilient runner has accomplished much more; in 2014, he set the national record for Sweden at the Copenhagen half-marathon.

German long-distance runner Uta Pippig had won the Boston Marathon for two years running, in 1994 and 1995. However, no woman had won the event for three consecutive years, and nothing was going to get in the way of Pippig — not even her monthly period or awful diarrhea.

Falling behind Kenya’s Tegla Loroupe by 220 meters and her body giving up on her, Uta somehow managed to pull off the inspiring victory.
