Can we get some thoughts on the dude that dropped the bar on his head during weightlifting? Is that something that happens a decent bit (seems like it would), or was it really as big of an event as everyone made it out to be?
Obviously, it was dangerous, just trying to gauge if it is rare.
Also, in the canoe slalom: The man-made rapids are badass. Does that exist anywhere as a tourist thing? It seems like big cities all over (or water parks) should have shit like that.
+1 to the US Soccer win over Canada. There are very few times when I actually scream at the TV after having legitimately lost control for a few seconds. This was one of them.
The US Men's Basketball team's performance against Nigeria was also absolutely incredible. Not only breaking all of the records that they did, but shooting something like 63% from 3's. That is pretty impressive, whether they're playing Nigeria, a youth team, or even just shooting around alone in a gym.
