Bahamas at the 1972 Summer Paralympics
The Bahamas made its Paralympic Games début at the 1972 Summer Paralympics in Heidelberg, West Germany. The country's delegation consisted in a single athlete, John Sands. Sands competed in one event: the men's 60m wheelchair sprint, in category 1B. He completed his race in 34.8s, which placed him 22nd overall in the heats, and did not enable him to advance to the final. The event was ultimately won by West German athlete Baumgartner (full name not recorded), in 19s.[1]

gollark: I think it is significantly below 1 most places, which is something...
gollark: If you keep R *around* 1 but cannot get it lower - and since we can't really do total lockdowns I think that's the case in some places - you're not getting rid of it, just slowing down the whole thing.
gollark: That too.
gollark: Perhaps we are in the same time zone, or same country, or same constituency, or even same village, or same house, or same room.
