Setting a new record - with broken ribs!


I'm amazed by Torstein Horgmo's winning 'triple cork' on a snowboard - the first ever in competition - during the recent Winter X Games XV in Aspen, Colorado.







What makes this almost unbelievable is that he jumped with broken ribs!!! That must have taken a level of courage and willpower that frankly astonishes me.

Congratulations to Mr. Horgmo, and may his career go on from strength to strength!
