    Molly caudery did a Sergri Bubka 1992. According to TJ on comms. Who was well outside his comfort zone during that, but that was an interesting tidbit.

          Drama in the women's gymnastics individual beam. Four competitors fell off the beam, including the two front running Americans Biles and Lee. All round silver medallist Andrade of Brazil just had to nail her routine for the Gold, but didn't do enough. The winner was the Italian gymnast who seemed to miss out on a medal so many times, she was the 7th ranked qualifier. That's a pretty big upset

                LOL. I like the instrumental. It just seems to go on a while, and just when you think it's done it has the last jaunty bit which I think is my favourite bit

                        Finn Butcher finishes 2nd in his canoe slalom semi final race, but that's enough to make the final and that last 4.

                          Hegge of Germany, Rohan of Czechia and Clarke of GB will be the other finalists, alongside Finn Butcher. There must be a decent chance of a NZ medal.

                            The crowd are furious as the French favourite is out.

                                      I've just done the biggest about turn in my life I think.

                                      Aussie woman wins the Canoe Slalom gold. What the fuck is this shitty sport? Another pile of crap invented which fuck all take part in and then of course, the Aussies throw money at it to win another gold??

                                      Nek Minnit.

                                      Gold New Zealand! Best sport ever!!!!!!
