A viral video from the Sydney HYROX event over the weekend has sparked debate online, after footage surfaced of a man continuing to compete while his girlfriend and teammate was left on the floor being treated by paramedics.
The incident, which quickly went viral on TikTok, was captured on video by a bystander who watched in horror.
“That guy’s girl just fainted and like full hit the deck, she’s unresponsive and he just kept doing the wall balls and then crossed the line by himself. He’s left her there … what a piece of sh*t. I think I’ve just witnessed one of the worst things in my life …” the witness, Aaron Boundy, said.
“She hit the deck, fainted and was full like twitching on the floor, and then her boyfriend just kept on doing wall balls, didn’t go over and see her … all the paramedics come over and start doing all this medical stuff to her, put barricades around her, so obviously it’s pretty bad,” he continued.

He claimed that the man tapped his girlfriend on the leg and then asked the race’s judge if he needed her to finish the race.
When he was told that he “technically didn’t”, he allegedly ran off and finished the race without her.
