Known and Knowable<\/a>, who conversed with some of the volunteers on-site, they were never asked whether they had experience on the water, and neither the judges nor the medics were given whistles or floatation devices for use in emergencies. (Other athletes confirmed they didn\u2019t see flotation devices, and they weren\u2019t visible in video of the race. A source close to the company says the safety personnel on the water had specific water-rescue experience.)\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\tAthletes were required to use goggles that had been provided by a sponsor, and as they hit the water, many athletes found that the goggles were immediately fogging up. At the same time, the sun was peaking over the horizon directly into their line of sight, making it all but impossible to see. \u201cIt was pure white-out,\u201d Vellner says. \u201cYou couldn\u2019t see anything.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tIt was too much for Elisa Fuliano, an Italian athlete, who started to have a panic attack. Hot, tired, and disoriented, with her heart rate spiking out of control, she felt terrified, like she was on the verge of drowning. Arms bumped her as others swam past, and she did her best to follow their general direction. It was her impression based on past events that if she asked for help, she would be disqualified \u2014 not only from the race, but from the entire weekend of competition. But she was desperate enough to accept the consequences.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cAt that moment, I just wanted to be out of the water,\u201d she says. \u201cBut when I looked around, no one was there. I saw nobody.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tShe managed to struggle, one slow breaststroke at a time, to the other side of the lake. She was no longer thinking about the competition. She was thinking about her family \u2014 about surviving.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tIt was only as she approached the finish line, 18 minutes later, that Fuliano finally saw a medic in a red shirt standing on a paddleboard. She couldn\u2019t believe it: Where were the rest of them? As she dragged herself out of the lake, she was grateful to be alive. \u201cI love sport, but that seemed like war, not a workout,\u201d she says. \u201cIt was about having to survive. That was not the CrossFit that I like.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tAT 7:38 A.M., TWO MINUTES AFTER BELGIUM\u2019S Jelle Hoste crossed the finish line to take first place, Brian Friend, an analyst and commentator who reports on CrossFit, sent a text to a colleague about the race. \u201cI was wrong,\u201d he wrote. \u201cLazar died lol.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tWhat he meant was that \u00d0uki\u0107 seemed to have given up his comfortable lead, and that their initial speculation \u2014 that \u00d0uki\u0107 had slowed to a crawl over the swim\u2019s final stretch to conserve energy and coast to a win \u2014 was wrong. The guy was clearly struggling. Any second now he would surely be limping across the finish line to secure second.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\t\u00d0uki\u0107 was born in Novi Sad and raised in Temerin, in the Serbian province of Vojvodina. He first discovered CrossFit while training to be a lifeguard in the United States, when a roommate introduced him to \u201cMurph,\u201d a legendarily hard CrossFit workout involving push-ups, pull-ups, and air squats while wearing a weighted military vest. \u00d0uki\u0107 was hooked right away, and when he returned to Serbia, \u201cimmediately my goal was to qualify for the Games,\u201d he said in a video interview about a month before the Games.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tHe and his younger brother, Luka, trained together regularly, and \u00d0uki\u0107\u2019s preternatural talent for the methodology, combined with his natural tenacity, made him a rising star: In 2017, he was the top-ranked CrossFit athlete in all of Serbia, where the sport has seen steady growth, and in 2021, he ranked in the top 10 of the CrossFit Games in his rookie year.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tSwimming isn\u2019t typically part of day-to-day CrossFit \u2014 few, if any, CrossFit gyms have swimming pools on site \u2014 but swim events are a staple of Castro\u2019s Games programming. Many of the top Games athletes struggle inordinately with these events, but \u00d0uki\u0107\u2019s background in water polo has always given him a natural advantage there, which is why so many spectators had him pegged to win the race.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tOver the next two minutes, a number of other racers emerged from the water: Brent Fikowski, Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr, Roman Khrennikov, Ricky Garard. But as Friend could not help but notice \u2014 with increasing alarm \u2014 still no \u00d0uki\u0107. \u201cDude,\u201d he texted in follow-up. \u201cIs he even OK?\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tAround 7:40 a.m., there was a flurry of action around the shore. Jessica Smith, a spectator, told CrossFit blog the Morning Chalk-Up that she thought she saw someone struggle in the water, and she started screaming: \u201cHe\u2019s drowning!\u201d She tried to hail two volunteers on paddleboards \u2014 one a medic, the other a judge. She urged her boyfriend, a former Marine, to jump into the water to help, but as soon as one of the paddleboarders saw him enter the lake, he was reprimanded and directed to return to shore.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tAnother spectator, Shanna Medeiros \u2014 mother of two-time Games winner Justin Medeiros \u2014 told the Morning Chalk-Up after the race that she was \u201c99.9 percent sure\u201d she saw someone drowning near the boat ramp. She says she\u2019d also tried, and failed, to get the attention of CrossFit Games staff, until a volunteer told her that \u201call male athletes are accounted for\u201d and not to worry.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tAt 7:41 a.m., announcer Larry Moss made a call over the loudspeaker reporting that \u201c\u00d0uki\u0107, Lazar\u201d was \u201cheading towards that finish line.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tFriend felt a momentary wave of relief \u2014 until he looked at the finish line and saw that it was in fact Luka \u00d0uki\u0107, Lazar\u2019s younger brother, who was exiting the water and had been misidentified by Moss, who quickly corrected himself.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u00d0uki\u0107 and his brother Luka had long been inseparable. Three years younger than \u00d0uki\u0107, Luka was a longtime soccer player who nearly went pro before an injury to his fibula sidelined him indefinitely. The two would always wrestle and fight as kids, though \u00d0uki\u0107 \u201cwas so much stronger than me, so I didn\u2019t have much chance back then,\u201d Luka said in an interview shortly before the Games. It was during Luka\u2019s recovery from his soccer injury that \u00d0uki\u0107 suggested he give CrossFit a try. He became obsessed, too.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe brothers trained side by side at their garage gym in Serbia, although as Luka pointed out, they didn\u2019t do the same program: They worked with different coaches, giving their work together a playfully competitive edge. This was the second time that the brothers would be competing at the Games together. When \u00d0uki\u0107 won a European semifinal event earlier in the year, thereby qualifying for the Games, he used the spotlight to beam about Luka: \u201cThis doesn\u2019t mean as much as my brother qualifying and us going back together,\u201d he told the crowd in Lyon, France, last May. \u201cTo me, that\u2019s the biggest impression of this weekend \u2014 us going back together, us preparing for the Games together.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tOf the two, \u00d0uki\u0107 was the stronger athlete, particularly in swimming. So when Friend heard the announcement and saw Luka coming out of the water, his heart sank. \u201cKnowing the two of them, Luka\u2019s never beating Lazar on that workout,\u201d he says. \u201cThat was the first time I was genuinely concerned for his life.\u201d (Luka declined to comment for this story.)\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tAs the athletes gathered in the recovery area nearly an hour after the start time, cooling down in ice baths, Luka and Pantovic hurried from person to person, asking whether anyone had seen \u00d0uki\u0107. No one had. Some thought maybe he had retreated to the parking lot after a disappointing performance. Others heard rumors \u2014 no one knew where they began \u2014 that he\u2019d swum off course and had been found on a different shore. CrossFit staff only seemed to add to the sense of confusion. Shorunke remembers a staffer telling Luka that the team had eyes on \u00d0uki\u0107, and that his chip timer passed the finish line.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tThey didn\u2019t, and it had not. Yet Castro himself told Luka, around this time, not to worry: \u201cWe\u2019ve found him,\u201d he said. Shorunke, who overheard these remarks, was mystified by the air of certainty. They were insisting they had found the man. \u201cBut they hadn\u2019t,\u201d he says. \u201cThey hadn\u2019t found him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tCastro said in a statement to Rolling Stone, \u201cLazar\u2019s passing was a profoundly tragic moment for our community and for me personally. My own reflections on that time and the findings of the third-party investigation are now informing how we operate as an organization today and beyond. I have always taken the well-being and success of our athletes seriously, and we have made significant changes to improve safety protocols across the board. My focus is now on delivering the best of CrossFit to the 2025 Games and my hope is that the entire CrossFit\u00a0community can come together to move forward.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tAt the lake, Shorunke was struck by how disorganized the response seemed. \u201cI can\u2019t see them talk to each other, but I can see what\u2019s happening, I can see them running around like headless chickens, and I can twice hear people say they\u2019ve found him when they haven\u2019t,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n
\n\tAs it neared 8 a.m., and as it was becoming painfully clear that Lazar had not actually been located, organizers placed a call to emergency services, according to the police call record, while medics and judges on paddleboards searched along the shore. Shorunke and some others jumped into the water near where \u00d0uki\u0107 was last seen, hopelessly peering into the 40-foot depths for any trace of him, as concerned spectators huddled around the lake, watching with mounting unease. \u201cAll I could think about was that he must have swam to shore somewhere else, because it feels absolutely impossible that he has drowned, it doesn\u2019t enter your mind as a reality,\u201d Tall says. But the more time passed, the more undeniable the truth became. \u201cYou know most likely what has happened, but you just can\u2019t believe it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tAnother group of athletes, competing in teams and meant to start their heat at 8 o\u2019clock, were dismissed from the starting line and told that their race had been postponed. Although no one knew anything for sure, social media was already alight with speculation; local police were on-site asking questions, and shortly after 8:00, rescue boats were spotted on the water, as a team of divers prepared to search for a body around the floor of the lake. Those still there could tell that the news was bad.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tIn the warmup area, there was a section set aside for storage. By 8:10 a.m., it was nearly empty, as most athletes had already cleared out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tOnly one bag remained. It was \u00d0uki\u0107\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\n\tTHE INAUGURAL EDITION OF THE CROSSFIT Games was held on Castro\u2019s family ranch in Aromas, California, but within just a few years, the competition ditched its backyard-barbecue feel for something more extravagant, held in sports stadiums and costing many millions of dollars, bankrolled by the company\u2019s growth, which was accelerating as CrossFit gyms cropped up all over the world. As the competition expanded, so too seemed Castro\u2019s ambition to go bigger and bolder.<\/p>\n
\n\tDr. Adam Schulte, a former medic at the Games, took a dim view of how CrossFit approached athlete safety. \u201cThey do not treat athletes the way that other organizations treat their athletes,\u201d he says. \u201cThey\u2019re expendable. They\u2019re disposable.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tSchulte points to the 2015 CrossFit Games, at the StubHub Center in Carson, California, where he witnessed firsthand competitors taking on \u201cMurph,\u201d a brutal 40-minute gauntlet involving pull-ups, push-ups, and two miles of running while wearing a military-style weighted vest in extreme heat: Several athletes suffered from heatstroke requiring medical attention, while 18-year-old Maddy Myers was hospitalized with rhabdomyolysis, a potentially life-threatening condition involving the rapid breakdown of muscle tissue due to overexertion. After the event, Schulte went public with his concerns about what he thought was a failure to prepare for extreme heat conditions and indifference to medical precautions.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWater events had been a problem before. During a run-swim-run event at the 2017 Games, 57-year-old athlete Will Powell was rescued by a fellow competitor after he struggled in the water and nearly drowned, while former Games champion Mat Fraser once struggled with an open-water event and feared for his life, according to his former coach Chris Hinshaw.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cThe ethos of the CrossFit Games has always been \u2018How far can we push people?\u2019\u201d says Alyssa Royse, a former CrossFit gym owner who has been outspoken about the company in the past. \u201cIt isn\u2019t always a test of strength. Sometimes it\u2019s just a test of fealty \u2014 or stupidity.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tTHE COMPETITION FLOOR AT DICKIES ARENA the afternoon after the race was eerily silent.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tIt was a little after 4 p.m., and several hundred athletes, coaches, and staff members from CrossFit\u2019s head office were assembled in the center of the cavernous stadium, waiting to hear Dave Castro, in his customary cap and tight-fitting T-shirt, address the crowd. Nothing had been made official, but nearly everyone had seen the local news reports: Lazar \u00d0uki\u0107 had been declared dead, his body discovered by divers and extricated from the lake shortly after 10 a.m., in what the Tarrant County Medical Examiner\u2019s office later deemed an accidental drowning. They were waiting now to hear what CrossFit intended to do in response.<\/p>\n
\n\tCastro entered and strode into the middle of the room. He started to speak, then stopped, as if thinking better of it; he stood there, silently, for a long time. No one moved.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tFinally, he made his brief announcement. He told the athletes that they would be continuing with the CrossFit Games. The athletes recall him acknowledging the tragedy, then adding abruptly, \u201cWe have the family\u2019s blessing to carry on. Any questions?\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tThe room was stunned. Nobody seemed to know what to say. Castro, a former Navy SEAL, was not exactly renowned for his emotional depth \u2014 \u201cMy wife says I\u2019m a sociopath,\u201d he once joked in a behind-the-scenes Games video. But this seemed insensitive even for him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tIt was Kara Saunders, who had competed in the Games 11 times, who at last spoke up. \u201cThat\u2019s it?\u201d she remembers saying. \u201cSomeone just died, and you come out here and we just go on with the CrossFit Games? We just pretend that nothing happened?\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cNo, no, no, I\u2019m not pretending nothing happened,\u201d Castro quickly insisted. But he\u2019d spoken to the family, he explained. And the family wanted them to go on with the Games.<\/p>\n
\n\tAt that, Laura Horvath, 2023\u2019s Games champion, walked out of the room. Several other athletes followed. Those who remained erupted in debate \u2014 some felt the Games should continue as normal, while others thought it should be canceled entirely. Many argued that the Games should play out as a kind of exhibition in \u00d0uki\u0107\u2019s honor, with the prize money \u2014 more than $3 million \u2014 split among the athletes and the \u00d0uki\u0107 family.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe athletes were divided. Some, especially those who knew \u00d0uki\u0107, were appalled by the idea of carrying on as normal, and some withdrew as soon as it became clear that the Games were continuing. Many athletes were visibly distraught, weeping and barely able to keep it together. A few others seemed to shrug off the episode \u2014 callously, it seemed to some of those present. \u201cI don\u2019t see what the big deal is,\u201d one athlete complained. \u201cYeah,\u201d another agreed. \u201cPeople die every day.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tCastro reiterated that he\u2019d spoken to Luka, \u00d0uki\u0107\u2019s brother, and that Luka was in favor of moving ahead: \u201cHe said that this is what Lazar would want, to go on,\u201d Castro insisted. For one conflicted athlete, this was the most compelling reason to continue competing. \u201cWe\u2019re like, \u2018Alright, I think this is weird, it still doesn\u2019t feel right, but this is his brother,\u2019\u201d Saunders remembered concluding. Eventually, Castro sent out a survey to athletes by email, and soon reported that the majority was in favor of moving ahead with the Games, too.<\/p>\n
\n\tLate that night, Brian Friend was at his hotel room, unable to sleep. Around 3 a.m., he sent a message to Luka, offering his condolences. Luka instantly started a video call. He had something to clear up.<\/p>\n
\n\tAccording to Friend, Luka explained that Castro showed up to his hotel room that afternoon with Nicole Carroll, CrossFit\u2019s chief brand officer. Luka had just learned that his brother\u2019s body had been recovered from the bottom of the lake, and he was still sitting in his wet swimsuit, trying to absorb the shock. In Luka\u2019s account to Friend, Friend recalls, Castro told Luka that they wished to continue with the Games as a tribute to his brother.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tLuka equivocated. He wasn\u2019t thinking clearly, he said, and he was not in the state of mind to make such a big decision. \u201cI don\u2019t fucking care,\u201d he told Castro. \u201cDo whatever you want.\u201d He told Castro that this shouldn\u2019t be up to him.<\/p>\n
\n\tCastro replied that it wasn\u2019t up to him anyway. After the Games, Luka described this incident on his Instagram account, objecting to Castro\u2019s version of events. Castro apologized on his own Instagram account shortly thereafter. \u201cI should never have said that the decision to continue the CrossFit Games in August was \u2018blessed\u2019 by their family,\u201d he wrote. \u201cI\u2019ve never been in a situation like that before and I absolutely made a mistake.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tThe CrossFit Games started back up on Friday afternoon, a little more than 24 hours after \u00d0uki\u0107 drowned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWHEN I SPOKE TO DON FAUL, CrossFit\u2019s CEO, later that weekend, he told me that the company had already initiated a third-party investigation, and he emphasized the importance of having \u201cto ask questions about what happened here\u201d and to make changes based on what came to light. \u201cOur intent has been to be transparent about that,\u201d he told me, \u201cand we will continue to be.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBut in the months that followed \u00d0uki\u0107\u2019s death, it became apparent that no answers would be forthcoming. When, this past November, the third-party investigation came to a close, CrossFit announced that \u201cthe results of the investigation have been reported to our Board of Directors,\u201d but that it was \u201cnot publishing a full report based on privacy and legal considerations.\u201d CrossFit instituted a number of changes in response to the investigation, including the creation of a new safety board and the suspension of all open-water swimming events.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tIn a statement to Rolling Stone about \u00d0uki\u0107\u2019s death, CrossFit said: \u201cCrossFit has been fundamentally transformed by Lazar\u2019s tragic passing and we reject the criticism that we did not take this tragedy seriously \u2014 our actions prove otherwise. CrossFit has since delivered on every one of its safety commitments and is continuing to make further operational changes. These commitments include hiring a new Head of Safety, establishing a Safety Advisory Board and community-nominated CrossFit Athlete Council, suspending all open water swim events for the foreseeable future, with more safety improvements to come in advance of the 2025 Games. As an organization, we are choosing to focus on delivering a safe and successful CrossFit Games for our athletes and the broader CrossFit community going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tThe athlete council, an independent group of representatives from the professional CrossFit community, was created to liaise with CrossFit\u2019s leadership in order to facilitate communication and address any ongoing concerns. Taylor Self, a member of the council, tells me that one of the council\u2019s first demands to CrossFit was to show them the results of the investigation so that they could help make recommendations for athlete safety. CrossFit declined. \u201cWe didn\u2019t get the investigation,\u201d Self says. \u201cThey said they\u2019re going to continue to follow their legal counsel which was to not release the results to the public.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cThe ongoing criticisms from CrossFit\u2019s detractors about not disclosing the extensive details of this tragic death does not serve our community in any constructive way,\u201d a representative for CrossFit says in a statement. \u201cThe CrossFit organization has been heads down making changes to support the safety of our athletes at future CrossFit Games. We believe the more important takeaway is that this investigation drove action and that CrossFit is implementing changes. \u201c<\/p>\n
\n\tCrossFit\u2019s founder Greg Glassman recently said to me, \u201cWhat needs to be done now from the mothership\u2019s perspective, or the perspective of truly caring about people, is figure out what happened so that we can prevent it from happening again.\u201d No longer involved in CrossFit\u2019s operation, Glassman\u2019s been observing from afar, and he hasn\u2019t been impressed with how the incident has been handled. \u201cThe fact that the whole thing is sealed up, the idea that they hired someone to investigate the thing and then for the sake of the family are keeping the results hidden \u2014 I call bullshit.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tThe continuation of the status quo was too much for some people. In the wake of the tragedy, many of the sport\u2019s top athletes announced they wouldn\u2019t be competing in this year\u2019s CrossFit Games, including Vellner, Fikowski, and Chandler Smith. \u201cI felt that they were responsible, that this accident was preventable, and I was doing the same thing I\u2019d always done, which was just carrying water for them in some way by going out and competing,\u201d Smith tells me. \u201cI need to accept that this is never going to change.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tAmateurs have followed suit. The CrossFit Open, CrossFit\u2019s annual global competition, saw a more than 30 percent reduction in registrations in 2025, according to data available on the official CrossFit Games app. More than 12 percent of CrossFit gyms worldwide have canceled their affiliations or closed down entirely over the past year, likely in part<\/a> as a result of an increase in affiliate fees implemented at the beginning of 2024. In March, the company\u2019s owners, Berkshire Partners, announced that the brand was for sale, explaining only that it was \u201cnow time to seek out a new owner for our next phase of growth.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\tFor Chris Hinshaw, who is now coach of CrossFit Games athlete Jeff Adler, you don\u2019t need an investigation to tell you that \u201cLake Day\u201d was badly planned. \u201cThat was very eye-opening to me,\u201d he says. \u201cYou put more people on the water.\u2026 You make sure there are personal flotation devices. You make sure they\u2019re swimming on one side of the buoys. You make sure they have their own goggles \u2026 these things. Because of where I\u2019ve been as a swimmer, in open water and triathlons, where you know how events are done, it was shocking to me what I saw.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cEverybody just wants to be like, \u2018Well, he drowned, and we missed him in the two split seconds that happened,\u2019\u201d says Known and Knowable\u2019s Halpin, who covered the accident extensively and compiled a thorough timeline of the race. \u201cNo. The whole thing wasn\u2019t officiated very well. And in that process, this happened.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tThis was the first time in the nearly 20-year history of the Games that an athlete had died, but for some, such an accident was in some ways inevitable. \u201cThis is the culmination of 10,000 bad decisions,\u201d Friend says. \u201cIt\u2019s not a one-off thing.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tIn May, I traveled to Montpellier, France, for the French Throwdown, a CrossFit-sanctioned competition that serves as one of several semifinal events for qualification to the 2025 CrossFit Games. During the final event of the weekend, one of the competitors, Mirjam von Rohr of Switzerland, collapsed on the competition floor while working out, apparently having overexerted herself. Her right arm twitching, it was instantly clear that something was very wrong \u2014 and within moments, medics swarmed the floor treat her, and soon carried her away on a stretcher.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tVon Rohr made a quick recovery, no doubt thanks in part to the swift response of the medical team.<\/p>\n
\t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n
\n\tOn the morning after \u00d0uki\u0107\u2019s death, the remaining athletes gathered at the arena for a brief tribute to him. Competitors and volunteers were marched out onto the floor in black shirts, stood in silence for a few moments, and then withdrew, as a short slideshow looped on the jumbotron.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tLuka seemed to speak for everyone when he posted a photo of the tribute on Instagram later that day.
