Best olympian ever. Hats off to you Elizabeth Swaney. A hero for the rest of us.

You know what you call the person who finished last in an event at PyeongChang.... An Olympian!

Quote:In order to qualify, Swaney needed to finish within the top 30 at a few World Cup skiing events. After “competing” in halfpipe contests around the world, Swaney finally qualified in December, when she went to a Chinese event while the top skiers in the world were at a more prestigious event in Colorado. She finished 13th out of 15, which has nothing to do with her actually besting anyone, since, once again, she doesn’t even do any tricks. Other people fell or certain events simply featured fewer than 30 competitors, which let her sneak in. That’s her gameplan: show up and stay upright.

Showing up is truly half the battle.

the commentator giving it the real treatment is the best....going up the side of the wall...a little flair at the end.
