with an accident in which Halilovic tore the discus of his left hand in a training run and severely injured the capsule. This forced him to take a five-week break and he could not take part in the national eliminations for the World Cup, but he was still used in the Intercontinental Cup. There he won seven of the eight organized races in a commanding manner and secured his second overall victory of this series in a superior manner with a lead of almost 200 points over the Canadian Charles Wlodarczak and the Briton Ed Smith. He thus stocked up individual victories in the ICC to a total of eleven. Halilovic ended his sporting career in 2012. The skeleton world team champion now uses his communication skills as a PR manager in the media industry. He has been speaking for NBCUniversal since 2013.
