Although Blessing Okagbare-Ighoteguonor finished in seventh place at a Diamond League event on Thursday, her unstable wig ensured she made headlines around the world.

The Nigerian sprint queen recorded a jump of 6.21 metres in Oslo, Norway, but her hair piece was inches behind.

Here’s a video of the ridiculous incident.
