Your weird (but really successful) sports setup made him choose Sweden!
2024 Summer Olympics (Paris)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Thank goodness for that. What a bizarre decision.
Feel for the Italian runner too.
Rollercoaster of emotions for that poor runner
Damn those Chinese and Turkish women volleyball players.
That Vargas lady when she launches herself to serve looks like athleticism personified. Power, speed and precision.
I would definitely suffer from broken bones if she did that to me.
@Kasper Women’s bouldering on. Already starting to see tops. Looks like they’re finding this much easier than the men. I’m going to predict three flashes from Janja
Yeah, I feel they've undercooked the problems this time. I reckon you'll need 60 in the bouldering round to have a chance to even hope to qualify in leads.
Greece hot out of the gates so far, Giannis putting on a show.
That’s was just strange , world number 1 falling off his horse !
Chinese women volleyball team lost to Turkey.
Watching the boulder climbing, the climb with the huge ledge, how is it even possible to climb it 
WTF she made that boulder climb look easy

Keep watching. I guarantee a climber called Janja Garnbret will climb it. She’s superhuman.
She did and made it look easy , sure she is part spider !
She’s the climbing GOAT. Probably stronger than a lot of the men competing in these Olympics.
I can believe it , she made it look so easy
And again Janja is a machine
That climber Pilz certainly has some legs
Vargas has 42 points by herself. Insane. China was one of the medal favorites too.
Shame Sky Brown is carrying an injury in the skateboarding
There's only 6 skateboarders in this, what's the point of prelims? Surely they will all qualify as it's not going to be a case of needing to whittle them down
Edit - they would appear to be in groups as Sky isn't in this one, so guessing it'll be some from each group to go through

Germany beats Greece in Basketball!
The horse just decided, ‘feck this’
In wrestling Vinesh is upsetting everyone.
Apparently it's meant to be some sort of hat.
I thought it might be the Eiffel Tower?
These climbers are like spiderman
China have got an 11-year-old representing them in the skateboarding. Shiiiiiit. Imagine being 11 and at the Olympics. Fecking insane.
China fielding an 11yo in the skateboarding
The youngest is 11 and the oldest person at this Olympics is 69!
It’s really fun to watch isn’t it
As worn by French revolutionaries and an icon used on lots of public buildings. Allegedly.

Duplantis is the coolest athlete at the games, he was clearing them vaults by a mile.
The finishing speed from the last athlete in the GB track cycling gold was absolutely mental.
Hodgkinson had her rivals on toast too.
Quite a night for results, the middle distance running always looks surreal to me too. When you see them look like they are barely moving, or trying, but in reality they are flat out running paces we'd be bollocksed doing 400m at.

I've watched a lot of gymnastics - Olympics does funny things to you. Anyway India battling against Pakistan for Olympic gold in javelin is a proper far fetched Bollywood script. Utterly parallel universe stuff. Oh and I loved the archery stuff. Nerves of steel.
The dance number is going to be so sick. The javelin will pierce a massive heart-shaped balloon and confetti will fall to the ground, where over a hundred dancers have assembled.
