Who says curling isn't dangerous? Russian takes nasty spill on the ice

Curling is a rough sport and Russian skip Andrey Drozdov just reminded everyone how tough it can be.

In a match against Switzerland, Drozdov lost his footing and landed face first on the ice -- sending the stones spinning away.

Even though he looked to have hit his head, Drozdov popped right back up on his feet and continued.

On the plus side, Drozdov's headache is probably feeling a little better since Russia topped the Swiss 7-6 in the match.
