Alright...are you serious. I was watching it last night and I couldn't even look at the television withough laughing. I looks like you put a lizard on its hide legs and made it walk. Lol, no disrespect to you race walkers out there but I think race walking in the olympics is just like putting power walking in the olympics.

Did anyone else see this?

You have to watch the entire thing, though this in no way compairs to what was on tv last night because there was a group of walking lizards. But watch the motion of the legs, hips, and waving head motions.

I didn't get to see the woman's race walking, only the mens. It was just so hard to watch without laughing. But it did seriously look like none of them had knee caps. Personally my knee caps when I turn my left leg a curtain way will just pop out of socket because of an old injury and I can tell you how much fun that was :shock: So its kind of funny/ painful to watch. Its the hip and the head movements for me that just make me laugh.
