'Amazing Race': Brook Cuts Her Eyelid on a Car Door (VIDEO)

We had a bad -- and weird -- injury on tonight's 'Amazing Race' (Sun., 8:30PM ET on CBS). Would the player in question manage to power through? And would it all be worthwhile?[Warning: Spoiler alert.]
On the previous episode, the players had to travel from the equator to the Arctic Circle. This time around, the goal was a lot easier. The contestants went from Sweden to Norway -- two countries that are right next to each other. But a shorter trip didn't equal fewer problems.
TV home shopping hosts Claire and Brook quickly ran into trouble. While rushing to the Norwegian marina -- the final pitstop for the day -- Brook suffered possibly the oddest injury in reality show history. She cut herself on the face, somehow slashing her eyelid while slamming down the door of a car. Ouch!
This was painful and unexpected. When host Phil Koeghan encountered the pair at the finish line, he was surprised by Brook's eye injury. "Seriously, you got a little nick in there!" he said. In the end, it may have been the unkindest cut of all. Brook powered through the injury -- but finished near the bottom of the pack. She and Claire were 5th out of 8 teams overall. Brook may have only gotten a nick on her eye, but she didn't manage to finish in the nick of time.
