This deserves it\'s own thread.  OMG, did you guys see that???

The dude came in last in two races, but due to disqualifications and last lap wrecks he freaking won the gold medal.

Not only was he in last in the final race, but he was so far behind that the wreck that wiped the other four racers out didn\'t even effect him.  Amazing....

Man, this was just ridiculous. When I saw it, I realy couldn\'t believe what I had seen.

When they talk about luck, they don\'t mean a guy lucking into a Gold Medal, that\'s just insane. He shouldn\'t have even been there, and yet he somehow gets the Gold, just...God. Even beforehand, the announcers were talking about how the Australians were looking for their first medal of the Winter Olympics, then this guy lucks into it, and acts...man, I dont\' want to get into THAT, but it still sucked.

Oh well, Ohno\'s still got 3 more shots at Gold, but not if the South Koreans have anything to say about it :P

See Yuz.

Hmm, I think I\'ve said too much on this at Dojo (haha, I bet most of you dunno what I\'m talking about) already.  Let\'s just say I didn\'t take a pro-Aussie stance on it. ;)

Yeah.. I heard he had two very serious accidents aswell..

One time he fell and cut open his body with the blade of the skate. [110 stitches]

He has also broken his neck one time.
