Just two bros, nuts to butts, at breakneck speeds.

I’m surprised that even needed clarification. Like, we’re not watching a couple of red pandas in M1 Abrams playing water polo with telephone poles, what the fuck about that picture is baffling to you?

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 19 points 2 months ago (3 children)

My only question is how terrifying is it being the top in this scenario? Looks precarious at best.

I’d imagine that when your forward velocity is that great, your desire to not become human luge paint is generally such that you can eat charcoal and produce only the finest of Tiffany cuff links. Not sure what that says about the Lego brick below you, but they made their choice.

At least on top you can see where you're going.

[–] athatet@lemmy.zip 12 points 2 months ago

At only the most incredibly uncomfortable neck angle.

Me: "It's the hot dog luge"

Wife: "What? Why?"

Me: "Weiner rests in the split of the buns"

where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Some times he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy, the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical, summers in Rangoon, luge lessons.

Lol, I definitely did not fully appreciate this when watching as a teen. Hilarious.

I didn't spend six years in evil medical school to be called Mister, thank you very much.

Craig: “What are we doing again?”

Mark: “We need to practice our luge doubles.”

Craig: “…”

Mark: “So I’m gonna need you to lie down on top of me.”

Craig: “Mark, this is a couch.”

Mark: “It’s just practice. We don’t have to be moving.”

Craig: “Mark, you asked me over to watch football.”

Mark (turns on football game): “Now come over here.”

Starts solo, and then your buddy asks if he can join.

[–] HelluvaKick@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago

Or you are too scared to try it yourself, so you ask your friend(me), to hold you so you feel safe going down that big hill

[–] YaDownWitCPP@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I looked up the origins of the luge double and you're not too far from the truth!

:: halfway down the run ::

Top: Ok, you know, that's making it really hard to concentrate.

Bottom: Well if you would not bounce us around so much...

[–] massive_bereavement@fedia.io 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I have cackled loudly and now I need to explain why to my children.

Thank you.

I'm a bit confused. Which one is the top here?

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 41 points 2 months ago (2 children)
[–] towerful@programming.dev 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

And yet the guy on top technically finishes first

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He's called the power bottom because he's generating all the power.

The bottom man is the top man, obviously.

In luge, being the best is sort of just a height and weight distribution thing. I honestly think a corpse that's my same shape could win.

The sport needs her. She's a once in a generation... shape.

Alexander Skarsgard was great on SNL

I had a friend who lived with a few dudes in a house, and I go over to her place and she's getting ready and one of her roommates is sitting in the kitchen eating a chicken breast and broccoli. We get to chatting, and he tells me he's going to Olympic trials for luge, and so obviously I ask how you get into that.

He ends up telling me he ran and was successful at track, and he basically got poached, mainly because of his size and his running ability.

So yeah. That's it.

[–] Naich@lemmings.world 30 points 2 months ago

You start off with a bit of spooning and before you know it you are in the winter Olympics.

The top guy is solidly connected to the shaft. Good for cornering.

My best friends Brandon and Jonathan discovered they were pretty good at this while they were in the restroom at the Handy Down Bar and they're celebrating their 3 week anniversary next Friday! So, it DOES happen more often than you think.

Is a bigger bulge a competitive advantage in this, too?
