Except of:

- BMX - freestyle

- dressage

- rhytmic gymnastics

- trampoline

- skateboarding

- surfing

- figure skating

- halfpipe

- slopestyle

Most of these, thankfully, have clear judging guidelines. Unlike breakdancing, which is just picking the 'cooler' routine. So I guess breakdancing will be the Olympic version of the Nobel prize. :lol:

A friend and I were debating the objective difficulty of the Olympics. He said that winning a Nobel Prize was a lot harder than an Olympic gold medal, but can this even be measured?

 


There’s five Nobel Prizes, given out every year, and up to three winners so that’s 5x4x3 chances to win which equals......errrr,, ummm, well, not a very big number anyway.  High 50s, low 60s, say.  

 

OTOH 306 Summer Golds & 102 Winter, so obviously a lot easier to win the Olympics.

How to win the Olympics in a few easy steps:

1. Be rich and become a citizen of, say, Dominica.

2. Create the Dominican Curling association.

3. Recruit a bunch of elite Canadian  players and pay for their citizenship.
4. Nominate yourself as the alternate on the Dominican Olympic curling team.

5. Don’t play (you don’t need to play a single end to be eligible for a medal).

6. Keep at it until Dominica finally wins gold.

7. Congrats?
