Haitian Olympic hurdler Jeffrey Julmis had no problem pumping up the crowd before he hit the track in the men's 110m hurdle race, but getting over that first hurdle was a whole other story.

Honestly, I don't want to make fun of a dude for traveling so far to represent himself and his country on the world's biggest stage, but I almost fell of the chair laughing after watching the below hurdle fail.

Obviously, it didn't take long for the internet to get wind of the hurdler's fail, which resulted in Julmis receiving the Mr. Krabs meme treatment.

Holy shit. The 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio have given us plenty of memorable moments, but you just knew it was only a matter of time before we were given a moment like this.

I feel for you, Jeffrey Julmis, but thank you for delivering some much-needed comic relief to get through the middle of the week. For those wondering, the hurdler did finish the race, which makes this whole thing even more amazing.
