Olympic sailing: Australian sailor falls off boat

Australia skipper Olivia Price falls off the back of the boat and into the sea during the third race of the women's Elliott 6m gold medal contest in Weymouth on Saturday.

The Australian crew were level at 1-1 against Spain in the final, but in attempting to overtake their opponents in race three they were caught on the wrong side of a wave and almost rolled over, throwing Price overboard.

She was unscathed and made it back on the boat, but Spain eventually went on to take the gold with a 3-2 victory.
