I don't know, or whether he's just got lighter underarm hair.

A close-up is called for

Yes, slow motion replay is required. That performance on the rings was far to fast!

Maybe he's tied it up in a bun.

The East Asian men have much smaller biceps than the European/American counterparts. Very different in shape.

oh, I have that on my PVR. Shall have to have a look later

 

[Lea]

Oh that last one on the parallel bars shaved!

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Oh that last one on the parallel bars shaved!

Yeah, the French one definitely looked a bit bare

Nice vault there, from I think it was a Brazilian

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Oh, that was sad

 

[Lea]

Yes, lovely vault by the Brazilian. Very clean.

 

[Espresso]

Sack that camera operator, there. He completely missed that American vault!

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Tsk tsk, spitting

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

arrrrggghh

 

[Lea]

What a shame Kristian about that vault!

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

What a shame Kristian about that vault!

and it was so good until the landing

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Oh, it's Keanu Reeves lookalikey

 

[Lea]

Tsk tsk, spitting

Yes, I thought it was a bit unhygienic of him to spit into his hands and then rub them together!

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Yes, I thought it was a bit unhygienic of him to spit into his hands and then rub them together!

I would have thought after bird flu etc. people would be a bit more hygienic

 

[Lea]

Oh, it's Keanu Reeves lookalikey

Who? The German bloke? Phwoar!

 

[Lea]

I do like the high bar. It looks like so much fun.

 

[Lea]

Lovely performance on high bar by that Japanese bloke!

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Who? The German bloke? Phwoar!

Yeah, I commented on him earlier in the thread. With a surname like that, and eyes like that, I reckoned he must be half Vietnamese.

Right pretty boy eh?

Same as, unlike this one that makes me wince every time they land on their arms

 

[Lea]

Yes, very pretty. Missed his name. WOuld it be Ngyuen by chance?

The East Asian men have much smaller biceps than the European/American counterparts. Very different in shape.

How so? I haven't noticed any difference. The only thing I did notice was the (german?) gymnast that looks very slight compared to all the others, but still damn good.

 

[Espresso]

I like watching Daniel Purvis run.

 

[Lea]

The other pretty German is Philipp Boy. Don't think he's competing today.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Yes, very pretty. Missed his name. WOuld it be Ngyuen by chance?

Well yes, but correct spelling would be Nguyen (Marcel)

The Americans and Europeans just seem to have a bulkier upper body than the East Asians who seem to be slighter in build.

 

[Lea]

Nail biting performance by Nguyen on the high bars!

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

You could have told me it had switched over to BBC2!

Been busy trying to find out where the rest of it was

 

[Lea]

Sorry! I thought you had gone for your tea or something!
