If there was ever a sport that was the complete opposite of curling, it might just be skeleton.
Lay down, headfirst, on a sled, at the top of an icy track and then just ... go. Trey at Fourth Place Medal adds, it's all "at 80 miles an hour. With no brakes or steering." Weeee!
Kinda makes those who do the ski jump seem normal and safety conscience.
