Winter Olympics

I think it’s brilliant the following that gradually generates towards the Winter Olympics. If the majority of us are honest we have almost zero knowledge of the majority of events from Curling to the Skeleton run but learning the basics around 30seconds before the event takes place and then loving every minute of it is a trend that can be matched in few other events.
Having said this I do have to draw the line at the doubles luge however which involves two men or women lying on top of each other and hurtling down a run at around 80 miles an hour. While undoubtedly a huge amount of skill is involved, is this an example of over complicating sport. (a trend America coincidently is highly guilty of)
