Fox News
Victor Montalvo overcame a car crash that affected his neck just months before the Olympics but still got onstage to earn the first, and possibly only, breakdancing medal for the U.S.
Jackson Thompson is a sports writer for Fox News Digital. He previously worked for ESPN and Business Insider. Jackson has covered the Super Bowl and NBA Finals, and has interviewed iconic figures Usain Bolt, Rob Gronkowski, Jerry Rice, Troy Aikman, Mike Trout, David Ortiz and Roger Clemens.
It was an existential decision that led to Montalvo winning bronze for the U.S. at the Paris Olympics in breakdancing, which was potentially the only time the sport will ever be featured in the Olympics.
