Karina went way out of her comfort zone in her hip hop dance on the Oct. 15 competition and a slippery dance floor made her take a tumble! Watch the video below!

Poor Karina Smirnoff! She burst into tears after falling during her routine with partner and Olympian Apolo Anton Ohno. “I slipped and fell. I’m sorry,” she tearfully cried to the judges.

“I feel like I messed up the whole routine!” Karina said. But the judges tried to reassure her she didn’t ruin the routine, and awarded the pair a score of 34.5 out of 40.

Carrie Ann said, “every dancer is outside their comfort zone” tonight. Len said Apolo was “fantastic!” Bruno said “he even made the running man look good and usually it’s rubbish!”
