[SquidVicious]

CALGARY, Alberta (AP) — Police say two young men died and six others were injured after using their personal sled/toboggan to go down a luge-bobsled track after hours at the Canada Olympic Park in Calgary.

Calgary police said Saturday that emergency crews received a call from an employee at the WinSport Canada facility in northwest Calgary at 1:30 a.m. after a report of several injured people on a closed track.

Insp. Kelly Campbell says that part way down the track the male teenagers hit a large gate that's used to separate the luge and bobsled tracks.

Police are investigating how they entered the property.

An article I read stated they were straight A student.  Shows that academic achievement doesn't necessarily equate to intillegence.

I guess the olympics now need to throw out a "don't do this at home" warning before each event as regular joe's now think they can emulate what took them a lifetime to master...

Ralph Klein, our best ever Mayor then Premier was asked how he planned to stop people from going into the woods, and diving off cliffs into two feet of water and paralyzing themselves.   on news, Ralph stated ' unfortunately, there is no way to legislate against stupidity!!!!'  i'd love to hear what he would have said about this if he was still around.

Politics and truth parted company several years ago. Bad break up, social media did not help.
