If ice smoking was an Olympic sport, Cambodia would have a good chance of winning a gold medal.

Eddie the Eagle, 1988 Olympics
Eddie 'the Eagle' Edwards is a British skier who in 1988 became the first competitor to represent Great Britain in Olympic ski jumping.
At the time he was the British ski jumping record holder
He competed in both the 70m and 90m events, finishing last in both events, but earned international fame.

In all fairness he was a professional speed skater and competed in 4 Winter games. You do realise this was a final and he was in it??????Barang chgout wrote: ↑Sun Dec 03, 2017 1:14 pm That Australian "speed skater" , who won gold when everyone else fell over.

As I told my kids win , lose or draw he was the 5th best in the world at that time and as luck would have it he persevered and was in the right place at the right time.
Years of training and injury led to a Gold medal. Lucky? Yes but whoever was in that race had a chance..........
