Yes, I'm watching that now. Pretty wild. Just saw one guy take a spill and take out another guy. First guy, no crying for him; he took a turn too sharp. Second guy, though, I feel sorry for; Olympic dreams dashed by a fallen body. They may have to make an adjustment for this unless it is considered a fair part of the luck.
