O-U-C-H! I had trouble sitting through that!

 

[Domo]

They do a good job of not slicing up their limbs :lol:

I am impressed by how quickly they get back up too, i would be like this

Lois does it too:

Nancy Kerrigan did it differently:

[Domo]

:lol: Lois.

I forgot about that Nancy Kerrigan thing. How horrible.

 

[David Baxter PhD]

It was. On the other hand, Kerrigan went on to further success. Harding went on to... well, notoriety and infamy, including celebrity boxing and other attention-seeking ventures and a new phrase in American usage: President Obama not all that long ago talked about "not pulling a Tonya Harding".

Well she's an interesting character

I'm watching the women's figure skating program right now and I have to say that it amazes me what they can do. I'm lucky if I can just walk without tripping over my feet :lol:

I am ashamed to admit that I did get quite a giggle from those blooper clips, though.

I'm lucky if I can just walk without tripping over my feet :lol:

:lol:

Don't be ashamed to admit that you giggled, we all did the same thing .....well i did anyway!

 

[Murray]

I just figure that since I could barely walk, it was pretty lousy of me to laugh when someone falls doing a quad on ice. But I did

I have to say that I also got a kick out of the "Lois Falls" Family Guy clip above.

 

[Domo]

Hehe yeah, i love Family Guy. In one of their Star Wars movies there was a giant camel robot thing that fell over and did the same thing :lol:

I tried to find a video of it but couldn't see it.

I remember taking figure skating lessons when I was a kid. Actually, that should be figure skating "lesson". I pretty much knew after the first one that this wasn't really my calling, so I quit. I did gymnastics instead.

I broke my leg in three places a few years ago simply walking on ice. I can't imagine trying to do spins and flips and twirls. I'm almost convinced they're crazy :lol:.
