Can you imagine how good of a handjob you'd get from an Olympic tug of war competitor?

Olympian handjob gold would go to a curling sweeper.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

we don't have to speculate; we should just ask. every olympic village ever is a non-stop orgy. there are probably real findings on handjob quality across sporting disciplines, just waiting to be gleaned from the personal experiences of athletes

maybe if you like it hard and rough, but you want that, just go to town yourself

If you're looking for an Olympian with a supple wrist and exquisite timing, you can't go wrong with a fencer.

As a member of the girl persuasion, I have to say I think musicians would give a better fingerbang than athletes. One word: vibrato.

My dad's planning on going up Ben Nevis this weekend with a few friends. He's been training around the Lake District since January so I think he'll be okay, and he's already saying that he's not going to risk the top if the weather's too rough.

There's a guy missing and presumed dead up there right now, apparently. They can't find him.

He better take some oxygen with him. The air is pretty thin at 4400ft.

Ben Nevis must be a contender for the highest death toll mountain at the lowest altitude.

I have a mate whose grandfather died on Ben Nevis. He was, I think, around 60. He was climbing with family and stopped saying he needed a quick rest and would catch up. As it transpired, he sat down on a rock to smoke a fag then keeled over from a heart attack.

There are worse ways to die, is what I'm saying. But death is certain for your dad, sorry.

If English day-hikers are as stupid as Nevadan day-hikers, then they're all loving dead. People get lost on clearly marked trails with clear loving sightlines to easily identifiable landmarks all the time.

I was going to ask if my memory of the book and other material I've seen was wrong, because it looked a lot more adventurous than I remember. Avalanche? Dude falling off a ladder over a crevasse?

I remember from the book a guy gets snow blind and walks off a cliff. Did that have s clip where someone taps the top of a rock? Isn't the summit a flat surface?

It was a pornography store. I was buying pornography.
The New Zealand accents in this are surprisingly uncringeworthy. Not great, but at least they haven't gone for the 'deep south' NZ accent which makes Kiwis all sound like high country farmers. Plus I guess you could make the argument that someone like Rob Hall who spent his life around international travelers would have picked up some other inflections here and there.

I think if anything with fewer summits it'll seem more exclusive, and who doesn't wanna be the first african hispanic translesbian from france to climb mt everest since 2013?

Also minor stuff like the Halls having names their kid before the storm, and Beck looking like Brolin.

It's gunna be cool to see Brolin all hosed up though.

edit: They did a pretty impressive job with the costuming though, they matched poo poo to pictures pretty well. Those purple Zubaz pants Hall had, especially.
