If you've seen the Hungarian and Taiwanese weightlifter mishaps, you know what I'm talking about. You know the 5 Chinese guys with placards that run to cover the athlete writhing in pain? Is that a Beijing exclusive thing or have they been doing this for years now? For some reason I laughed when I saw them instead of feeling sorry for the disfigured.

I don't know the answer to your question, but you wouldn't happen to have a gif of that guy who supposedly dropped the barbell on his crotch do you? :)

i think it's a pretty good idea, but is weightlifting the only event they are in?

Lol at the vid. I bet Fox wishes they had those guys when Janet Jackson had her "wardrobe malfunction" at the superbowl.

I should have a team of those to cover me up during those awkward and embarrassing social situations.
