WC Ski Jumping

WC Ski Jumping is a valuable event for Lillehammer. And for the first time in many years I managed to get there to watch the competition.

We had VIP passes that ensured excellent view of the competitors throwing themself out in 90 km/h accompanied by some alcoholic fluids for some. I was driving, which enabled me to follow the main event thoroughly! Fascinating in one way, and a confirmation of my suspicion that these young men seem fearless...

The Norwegians fell through and eventually a Finn won, followed by a Russian. Some of the spectators seemed to enjoy the beer more than the sport event, but the atmosphere was good.

I'll be back next year!
