It starts out normal, but then it very quickly gets hysterical. Thank you for nominating him, Tom Hiddleston and Juno Temple and Adelaide Clemens. I love you all. :)

Oh, I know! It's glorious in so many ways. That image of him toeing off those boxer-shorts, that slightly guilty smile at the thought of what he was about to do to us, the indignant shock when he iced himself from the helmet...

I just...I thought it would be good, but it was so much better than I imagined, lol! What a great sport. SIX times!! :)

(Also, now we know: boxer shorts.)

Some clever Sherlockian at Tumblr found a shot from the unaired pilot where you can see rather similar-colored shorts under his trousers. Almost certainly a coincidence, but somehow that doesn't keeep it from adding to the fun. :-)

I love the way the camera hovers ever so briefly (ha ha) over the boxer briefs after he extricates himself from them.

Ben just keeps feeding my crush by being such a good guy.

Yesss, that camera lingering was perfect. :D
