Poster: A snowHead
|
Heads up for those like me that missed this documentary last week. Pretty hairy stuff by all accounts !
The Olympic sprinter aims to discover what makes downhill skiers risk their lives in pursuit of glory, and discusses the sport with skiing greats Franz Klammer and Hermann Maier, as well as experts from the worlds of psychology and neurology
BTW... you've no doubt seen this video clip but it never fails to impress ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=IE&hl=en-GB&v=__Faa87IQhk

Sorry... looks like the BBC have canceled the above program, due possibly out of respect for the tragedy that occurred yesterday in Vancouver

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

n1ckster, probably because it was going to be repeated at lunchtime today. sometimes sports clips are copyrighted to other TV companies too.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

apparently, they're usually not on iplayer if it was a commercial program that the BBC has bought rights to as iplayer would be a lot more expensive

I saw this late one night last week I think. Pretty good, especially the interview with the current Olympic downhill champion, whose name escapes me, but he is French (I think!). He talked about basically loosing his 'bottle'. Career over.
Disappointed not to see the legend skiing (Michael Johnson!)
