I actually watched this video just to see what race-walking was. I never knew this sport even existed...

Wikipedia says that these guys walk faster than I run.

Shit. I just lost $20 to my gf. Canadian dollars, too.

($20 CAD = $21 USD)

I've seen several clips from this show before, what's it called? It's like like a bizarre mirror-world version of QI.. in a sense, heh.

The comedy is in the question, not the experiment. But now I have another question: Why would you believe a group of ancient warriors want to kill you?

If it had been a ninja, there would have been a flash on the screen, and then a headless corpse lying on the track.
