Published

It was a dangerous day at the Winter Olympics, marked by several scary accidents -- including Polish skater Kamila Sellier taking a blade to the face during her race, forcing her to withdraw from the competition with a gruesome injury.

The frightening moment was caught on live broadcast ... showing Sellier competing in the women's 1500 meters at the Milan-Cortina Olympics.

Sellier -- a two-time World Championship medalist -- fell to the ice during the race when the blade of Team USA's Kristen Santos-Griswold struck her face inadvertently with her skate. The blade sliced right across Sellier's left eye, leaving a gash. Thankfully, she was wearing safety goggles, which probably saved her eye.

JP wasn't alone as he made his way around the hospital halls, as Leerdam was by his side after the procedure.

Jake also included some crazy AI videos with the post.

The injury will certainly push back any potential return plans for Paul ... who will be looking to bounce back after just his second loss as a pro.

The 29-year-old had his first surgery on Dec. 20 ... the day after his bout against Joshua, when he required two titanium plates inserted around his jaw. It also cost him a couple of teeth.

The serious injury didn't slow Paul down ... we spotted him at a post-fight party thrown by Celebrity Sports Entertainment at a private mansion in Miami, though Paul understandably wasn't doing a lot of talking.

Get well soon, Jake!
