David Letterman used to gather avg height and weight on the studio audience. He did this every day so it could be DIScussed at length.

The data was useless and very funny to analyze. Here it is different. we're some of the best skiers on the planet. Skiing at high speed is dangerous, height and weight are extremely important. The taller you are the more leverage, the more weight - the more gravity is pulling you down the hill. Most think these advantages are from centrifugal force. However, it is really angular momentum. There is a guy who does a 360 (tight) at the bottom of the hill. He's showing off. He still has something left in the tank.

Note: This poll is voluntary. Good question and Happy Thanksgiving. Meow

Blue eyes, he can see in the dark like a husky (doggy). He can pick them up and lay em down. (y)

To be honest he's a better skier than me. o_O What ????

file under sad, butt true. For clarity I am a far better baseball / softball player. Saw him run down a fly ball in a charity softball game. Not well executed...

Does this explain the Mohawk?

Weight : 180 - 205. This is an estimate!

He seems like a professional ski guy. Very funny. This should get you to vote.🤟
