i went to buy some booze this afternoon for later this evening and inside the store there were like 4 flat screens playing the olympics. in the short time i viewed while traversing the aisle between the beer coolers and the register, i witnessed about 6 dudes wearing nothing but speedos standing around and patting each other and the back beside a pool.
not interested whatsoever.
that being said, i'd like to watch skateboarding in the summer olympics 2020 for the inevitability of hilarious and serious injuries.
Brown's injuries were a fractured wrist, fractured vertebrae, bruised liver, bruised lung, ruptured spleen and concussion.[6] After several minutes of unconsciousness, Brown walked off the ramp surface with the assistance of former skateboarding inspiration Ellis.[7]
Following the accident, Brown appeared on the television programs Larry King Live,[8] The Today Show, and MTV. Following his recovery, Brown then won the gold medal in the Big Air event two years later at X Games L.A. and then defended his title in 2010.[2]
In a 2013 news article, Brown admitted that "I thought I was good right away, but it took me a couple of years to mentally get back to where I wanted to be." Way explained in the same article, "Jake's fall was catastrophic. Those types of things put what we do into perspective. It's what we fear most. That's the reality of the risk."[6]
