What the hell  

 

That deep men's voice synched with Nevena's lips really got me going 

 

It's weird, although kinda cool as well, but I think with the costs of this video you could give these 4 athletes accomodation for the entire winter season

Also, nice to know that apparently I pronounce these Serbian names correctly

I checked and found they have no athletes in 7 events: men's and women'd ski cross, men's 5000 and 10000 speed skating, women's team pursuit, women's PGS and women's short track relay. Or am I wrong somewhere?

According to the file they are competing in men's 5000m and women's team pursuit in speed skating. Wikipedia must be outdated.

I guess it's possible they won't compete in the women's biathlon mass start.
