No kidding. I was just thinking about what would happen if one of the skiers in the men's downhill wiped out at 80+ mph. Easily could be a near-death situation if that happened. I remember one of the lugers at Vancouver died 4 years ago, that's the ultimate price to pay if something goes wrong. The risks are crazy, but clearly being able to call yourself amongst the best in the world at your sport is worth it.
