    The Gripping Conclusion Of The Bode Miller Experiment

    drunkskiieryeah.jpgA couple of weeks ago, we alerted you to the brave souls at NoobSports, who actually undertook the Bode Miller Experiment of drunk skiing. It was a thorough enterprise, but it cut off halfway through, leaving us all a-twitter with anticipation.

    Well, they finally went through with it, and it's a doozy. Our valiant hero heads to the Crested Butte Mountain Resort and does three "control" runs, sans booze. Then, at "halftime," he heads to the bar and slams down a double shot of Goldschlager, a shot of Hot Damn 100 proof, two PBR, a shot of Rumpelminze and a shot of Jager. (They note that he weighs 155 pounds and is at 10,000 feet altitude.) Just to make sure the buzz continued, he took a couple pulls of Hot Damn on the ski lift.

    The results? Mercifully, not death. But: "There are 360 degrees in a circle. The test subject made it about 210 before crashing to the ground. In skier vernacular, this would be considered a 'yard sale.' Both of the test subject's skis came off, one pole came off, and his helmet and goggles were twisted around to the side."

    A completely irresponsible experiment, done with reckless disregard for safety and decency. We wholeheartedly approve.
