Russian diver scores 0.0 on one of the worst dives in Olympic history

28-year-old Russian diver Nadezhda Bazhina saw her Olympic medal dreams vanish before her eyes on a brutal dive in the women's 3-meter springboard prelims.

Here's how she landed:

She scored a 0.0 on the dive.

Her coach was horrified:
