CRINGE WORTHY CHAOS: VIDEO SHOWS WHY YOU SHOULD NOT CELEBRATE VICTORY EARLY

During the Iraqi Cycling Club Championships this past weekend in Erbil, Iraq, the presumptive winner tried to celebrate what he thought was certain victory, removing his hands from the handlebars and raising them in a “V” for victory pose before crossing the finish line.

It did not go well. Chaos ensued.
