Bumpy. Dangerously fast as hell. And it looks like the luger will careen off the course at any given moment.
Doubles luger Matthew Mortenson put on a helmet cam on a ride down the luge track in Sochi to show us what it’s like to go zooming down sloping slick ice on your back and while it looks like a fun roller coaster ride, it also looks like the chance of crashing is a solid 100%.
The footage was taken by Mortenson a few years ago but it’s still a great point-of-view of these crazy speedsters.
