Come on guys, they're Olympians. They're not supposed to be smart. 5 G's of pressure, and blind skiing being as safe as normal skiing is what you'd expect to be said. --- hopefully one day I can experience one G. wait sitting down is one G--
reply

How many people are upset at the -5Gs of pressure. - I say that because a G is an acceleration force of Earth's avg gravity of 9. 8 m/s-2. Oh and we all undergo 5 G's in our life, but a sustained 5G while controlling something is hard.

Amy Purdy is so purdy! I mean, pretty! She's not the only one, too. It's funny how so many Olympic-level athletes are so good-looking. Must be that whole -pinnacle of human achievement- thing they have going on.
reply

I feel more impaired without having a disability than these athletes, they make their sports sound so easy. I realize they have fought the hardest and fought some more after that to get where they are now.
reply

Also, why is it fair if a Paralympic athelete is just as good as an Olympic athlete, yet they are forced into an -easier- competition. I don-t think it-s that fair
reply

How much longer do you think there will be any cities able to host winter Olympic and Paralympic games with Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) melting all the snow?
reply

My grandmother was a famous speedskater who almost made it to the olympics. She watches them every year and always seems kind of sad she never got her shot
reply

My brother is 10 and he came up to me yesterday and was like -so whats with this gus guy? The athlete? - I had no accurate explanation.
reply

I know it's probably more trouble than it's worth to get the rights to the footage, but it would've been nice to have some reference material
reply

Wow! Two major badasses: Amy Purdy and Lolo Jones! And all those paralympians. Amazing people. I hope they're treated well.
