I never have any FI what’s going on but I love it. I know I’ll be in the minority here but it’s much better to watch as a casual viewer than the Summer Olympics, or most other major sporting events. Watch people splashing up and down a pool? So boring - fark that. At the Winter Olympics the competitors could literally die in almost every single event.
And this year has the additional intrigue that Kim could drop a nuke right on the bobsled course at any moment.
Yep the competitors are certifiably insane, in all disciplines. It’s amazing to watch.
I watched the Mogul skiing earlier. That’s the one where they go straight down a mountain filled with huge snow mounds, letting their knees bounce up and down like pogo sticks. And let’s throw in a few jumps as well. First to the bottom without dying wins.
One of the competitors ruptured his ACL in training two months ago. So he’s competing WITHOUT AN ACL in one knee. Just chuck a bandaid on it and it’ll be fine.
