King sized bobsleds

[ottomun6]

I almost forgot to mention this, but about a week ago, I was watching the bobsled competitions on TV and was really surprised at all the muscle pushing those sleds around. As you all probably know, the guys are athletic and keep in shape, but I was stunned to hear the size of several of these hunks were in the 6'2" + range and weighing in around 235 lbs There was one fella hitting the 6'5"- 250lb mark . I guess I shouldn't be surprised since they say that some of these tanks were football players.

I think I almost died and went to heaven when I camera did a rear waist level shot of a four man team as they stood side by side just before the run. It looked like someone had lined up eight soccerballs and covered them in spandex!! And THEN all the bulging traps and shoulders were too much to take in. Phew!! I probably would have melted all the ice out there if I were the cameraman.
I seem to remember the guys were just average sized years ago.
Looks like another sport with muscleboys taking over.
