Two strange but true stories, Top 5, who to follow and what’s on in March
STRANGE BUT TRUE
WHAT’S ON IN MARCH
VALENTINES DAY HITS THE WINTER OLYMPICS
The luge is a fairly
dangerous sport as it is, but
for some, it’s just lacking
something… Oh yeh,
another person! The Double
Luge came to the spotlight
recently, on Valentine’s Day
of all days, as photos
surfaced of 2 people
hurtling down the luge track
on the same sled. No extra
special equipment, simply
another person with as big
as big cojones as you, who
lies on top and comes along
for the ride. Why? Well if
you’re going to throw
yourself down a slide of ice
at over 70mph, you might
as well do it with someone
else. This sport is the only
proof you need that 2 really
is better than 1 / everything
is better with a mate.
brawl broke out on the field.
A late penalty for Bahia to
equalize the game at 1-1,
saw the Vitoria keeper lose
his cool and confront the
goalscorer. Queue a loss of
composure by members of
both teams with hands
flying around and some
swings making Anderson
Silva proud (Brazilian
MMA). Interestingly there
wasn’t anyone diving to the
ground rolling in agony
though… Food for thought…
