What the crap? No. That's just a thing that glatt made up.

After they land, they go flying down that astroturf stuff and then onto natural grass and up a hill. Then they put their hands down to keep from sliding back down the hill backwards. A little awkward dance gets them over to the side.

They wait for the elevator to take them back up. That's my mom and daughter there next to them.

And then another jump as seen from the top.

glatt · 02-18-2010, 02:19 PM

Now it's time to go in and get some warm sugared milk and look at the view from up here.

I'd like to see a first time jumper jump

Flint · 02-18-2010, 02:22 PM

That's not real because some of the pixels and I have seen quite a few shops.

That was cool, but...

Awwwww...where was the flip???

I had a nightmare like that once.

besides, everyone knows it takes true courage to wear those imbicilic ice-skating costumes. The men's figure skaters are the brave hearts of winter olympics. "Oh, I'm a firebird!" and, "I'm a marionette!" or, "I'm a screaming cliche!"

takes guts to be those guys. It really does.

Men's Figure Skating didn't used to be this gay, right? I mean yeah, we always knew, and all, but they tried to butch it up some ... what a crop of flamers they have out there this year!

Lysacek showed a great deal of class in his response to Plushenko's sore loser remarks, I think.

Holy crap! Silver AND bronze in Super G!

Aksel's Dad split screen with his Gold medal run, parents of athletes can identify with the feeling. I have some embarrassing video of lil'Pete knocking off a nationally ranked fencer with me pacing around like a freaking cat in a cage.

Bode's run! I like the interview after, he keeps talking about other people.
