Enough with the killer bobsled track already

[Hambil]

If you build a track that has a record number of crashes, kills one man, and scares another so bad he won't go down it again and his 4 man team has to withdraw from the Olympics, you've fucked something up. Stop saying "It's not the track."

It's the track. These are the best athletes in the WORLD. Let's not let our Romanesque desires turn the Winter Olympics into a blood sport. I think I'm just gonna stop watching. They lost me, and I hope they lose a lot of other viewers and get a clear message, but I doubt it.

SOME PEOPLE, THEY SAY THEY CAN'T BELIEVE, JAMAICA, WE HAVE A BOBLSED TEAM

There is a video of the athletes discussing in an interview that this course is way too fast a day before that guy died on it.

Gary Oldman designed the track while high on poppers.

 

[Tisiphone]

I supplied the poppers to him.

It was fun watching that guy die.

If you think the track is bad now, originally it ended up in the killer whale enclosure.

Best. Olympics. Ever.

Man, if I think there might be a horrible messy crash, I'm totally watching. It's better than NASCAR!

 

[Tisiphone]

Death guaranteed is always a bonus.

Check out that spandex split in the video.

The mashup someone posted of his body flying into the WTC made me LOL.

 

[Tisiphone]

^LoL. Yeah, that was great.

 

[Big Dick McGee]

I love it when they're ejected from the bobsled and slide on they asses, it's so funny.

 

[Tisiphone]

It's better when the purity of the ice is marred by the gush of blood spurting out of them.

 

[Ishcabittle]

i didn't realize the mine field was so bloodthirsty.

 

[Tisiphone]

ARGH

 

[CaptainWacky]

Are people joking in this thread? Nevermind.

"Hey, I was thinking, let's go up to the mountains, and we'll build this long...chute-tunnel thingy, with a super steep downgrade, and gnarly banked turns that would make NASCAR guys crap their pants. Then, we can get a few of our friends to build a fiberglass sled in the shape of a rocket ship, and we'll put blades on it like 10-feet long. Then we'll get up a good head of steam, jump in the sled, and slide down the chute at 90 miles per hour!!"

"Dude...I dunno...isn't that a little dangerous?"

"Nah! What could possibly go wrong??"

You forgot to add, lets not let anyone else practice on it, that should make things interesting
