Sadly, I can't even use lack of sleep as an excuse. The footage was shot while we were getting ready to leave for Atlanta. Naturally, we were all had a lot of energy in anticipation of our big trip. We were awaiting the arrival of a few people before we could leave, and the team was getting a bit restless. So, I put my "entertainer" hat on, and showed off my bobsled routine.

Psh, clearly you know nothing about this great sport. That was a world class push start. Trust me, I'm an expert, I've seen "Cool Runnings" at least 10 times.
