Olympics

Post by CamplinP »

Just asking everyone to give thoughts to the athletes durring the games. I just saw the video of the lugger getting killed in his practice run. The most disturbing thing I have seen in a long time. Best wishes to his family and his country. Go USA

May he rest in peace. Should not have happened to such a young and upcoming athelete. Deepest regards to the family and his country.

The video is disturbing: http://www.nbcolympics.com/video/assetid=4d69df22-dc17-4356-8385-b075a080b00a.html#graphic+content+luge+crash+from+start
If things seem under control, you are just not going fast enough.
