Arrest this guy!

BBC SPORT | Other Sport… | Winter Sports | Grin and bare it — Gak. Can you imagine?

An Austrian skier was caught short when he was photographed skiing naked after losing a bet with his physiotherapist.

Former world slalom champion Rainer Schoenfelder had agreed to ski in his birthday suit if he had fully recovered from the effects of a crash last week.

The 29-year-old had been so sceptical about competing at the 4455m-long Lauberhorn in Switzerland after conventional treatment had failed to reduce head and back pains that he made his outlandish bet.

    Well, the guy has balls to …. oopps, OK, you got the idea.

  6. To tell you the truth the only reason I even posted this story is because I kept reading about it in various newspapers. In the newspapers (online version) they would write about it and then say that the picture ended up on the net but never show the picture. I found that odd. What’s wrong with these folks? Why didn’t they show the pic? Or at least link to it?..it isn;t porn by any means.

    This guy will win the Darwin award if he goes 40 MPH down a long slope!

  9. Reality says:

    I hope he doesn’t lose control and hit his pole.

  10. Mr. Fusion says:

    This would be cool if he wasn’t getting such a bum rap !!!
