Italian skater Ondrej Hotarek hilariously gets left hanging by pairs partner
Italian figure-skating pair Ondrej Hotarek and Valentina Marchei have some solid chemistry on the ice but not quite as much off of it.
Hotarek and Marchei competed in Wednesday’s pairs short program event. As the two celebrated their score afterwards, Hotarek went in for a high-five only to be hilariously given the cold shoulder by his partner (no pun intended).

Talk about the longest three seconds of Hotarek’s life.
The duo’s 74.50 score was good enough for seventh place overall. But that had to be the most awkward high-five attempt between teammates that we’ve seen since Chris Paul and Blake Griffin.
