I had a great time at Nagano in 1998, when no-one knew me and I could do what I wanted. I went out with my friends and went to watch all the sports.

Fame is almost a poison. I couldn't care less, in fact I lived better when I was a nobody. Sport is born clean and it would stay that way if it was the athletes who ran it for the pleasure of taking part. But then the fans and the media intervene and finish up by corrupting it with the pressure that they exercise.
I'm surprised it's illegal, because in our sport, it would be pretty minimal health risks, and it would actually make it safer for the athletes, because you'd have less chance of making a mistake at the bottom and killing yourself.
Sport should be a pleasure, a challenge against one's self. Sport is an act of freedom.
