Canadian freestyle skier Sarah Burke died Thursday of cardiac arrest after sustaining serious injuries in a skiing accident on Jan. 10.

Burke died at the age of 29 in hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah, after tearing the artery that supplies blood to the brainstem during a training run in the superpipe at a personal sponsor event at the Park City Mountain resort.

As the result of a fall after completing a jump, she suffered a ruptured vertebral artery, one of the four major arteries supplying blood to the brain. This caused her to go into cardiac arrest.


Sad. Sad
