Man takes selfie after crash during Olympic torch relay

The Olympic torch and those near it have been touched by their share of bad luck - and one man wanted to commemorate the latest incident.

So far there have been multiple attempts to put out the torch, a jaguar was shot and killed after being used in a presentation, multiple runners have fallen while running with the torch and yesterday a motorbike crashed into one of the policemen escorting the torch bearer.

Yet while people were lying crumpled and in pain on the ground, one spectator decided it was the perfect moment for a selfie.

With amazing speed and remarkable indifference, the man can be seen stepping out in front of the accident and snapping a selfie.

It's a strange decision but should make for a fantastic selfie.
