I could quite happily watch sport all day - and frequently do so on account of cricket test matches - but as entertaining as winter sports are, I have absolutely no idea what is going on.
One event seems to involve switching skis halfway through the race and another they're carrying guns. And don't even get me started on ski jumping because it terrifies me (and makes me think of the the movie Help.)
I always like to pick an Olympic event that I could at least imagine doing but it seems winter events have a much higher chance of death than the summer Olympics and I'm not so keen on dying a violent, frosty death.
