I almost fell out of my chair when I first saw this (at Phlegmmy's). Then I ran to youtube to find more videos of him. He's awesome, definitely not afraid to poke fun at himself and the sport. I wonder what gave him the idea in the first place...?

I have NO idea, but I can't help but think he wanted to take some of the air out of some pompous folks in the gymnastic community. And God knows there are quite a few of those... not just in gymnastics, but everywhere. Or maybe he just thought he could lighten things up a bit. Who knows?
I remember seeing him on TV many many years ago. He was funny then, and is just as funny today!
ReplyDeleteThat cracked me up.....
ReplyDeleteWow. That stuff is not as easy as it looks, and it doesn't look all that easy to begin with!

ReplyDeleteAgreed on all counts!
