Graham John May (1952 – 23 December 2006) was a weightlifting competitor for New Zealand. He won the gold medal at the 1974 Commonwealth Games in the men's 110 kg division. He is widely known for falling on his face during a lift prior to his gold medal-winning effort. During the failed lift he fell forward with the weights rolling off the platform and into the judges area. The footage of his fall was part of the introduction to the Wide World of Sports for 20 years and is seen as iconic footage of New Zealand sport.
