Well, since you probably wouldn't have seen, take a look a Frank Schleck's crash in stage 5 of the Tour of Switzerland. He seems to just vanish after toppling over the road barrier, and amazingly he got out (eventually) to finish the stage, though it lost him his chance of a win.

Here's the video http://www.sporza.be/cm/sporza.be/wielr ... /1.326592# just click on "de val van Schleck" under video to the right of Fothen's photo.

This was on the news last night. I didn't get to see it, but heard all about it when I got home. No actual news on the stage or GC. Just the stack footage.
