    Check out average rob on YouTube. He’s a Belgian dude who has done a ton of different sports as a “average” guy. He started the whole thing already pretty muscular and has gotten way more in shape over the course of what he’s done. But he also has his brother do everything with him and he is very not in shape. They’re some funny guys as well, great videos IMO.

    They do skeleton here, the most insane form of going down a tube of ice(at the place where that one guy doing skeleton died a while back IIRC): https://youtu.be/WjkRHgY0yZg

    Yeah, let an untrained person do that long jump thing where they spit in the face of gravity.

      I feel like they did that as a TV show with celebrities, similar idea to that Celebrity Splash high dive show

        But I want to see Geoff from accounting, who has never done a vaguely extreme thing in his life, get strapped to a pair of skis and pushed down the ramp.

          This feels suspiciously specific. Is Geoff a willing participant in your scenario? How much do you care about how Geoff fares in the landing? Has Geoff been denying your expense reports?

            In my ideal world Geoff was chosen by lottery, he does not want to do it, but he surprises everyone by not absolutely eating shit and finishes cleanly.
