Ice Dancing Spills

Italians Barbara Fusar-Poli and Maurizio Margaglio were leading the competition, until this fall

Lithuanian veterans Margarita Drobiazko and Povilas Vanagas, a husband-and-wife team, this was the worst of the falls.  But I think she hammed it up a little.  He carried her off the ice and she was taken out of the arena on a stretcher
