My god, seeing all these women makes me want to find a way to be an Olympian just so I can partake in the bang fest that is Olympic Village. I'll just do one of the shooting sports or something, I can do that.
The bobsledding looks really intense, these blokes reach some incredible speeds.
I actually went down the Mt. Van Hoevenberg Olympic Bobsled run at Lake Placid once. And I did it without a bobsled!
It was in July, not a speck of snow anywhere, it was a leisurely walk. (True story!)
Another true story. I went down the 700-foot toboggan run at Mill Stream Run Reservation in Cleveland Metroparks, without a toboggan. It was just before they opened (god, it was really 48 yrs ago!). It was after a heavy snow, like an intense snow plow at the bottom. Quite a thrill. Went back up for more several times. Rather like luge without the sled.
