Olympic Hotties Do Stupid Luge Stunts For Nestle

It’s the fake (or not) viral thing again. Just as Kobe Bryant jumped over a moving Aston Martin and did a jump shot over a pool of live snakes, we have 2008 Olympic gold medal gymnast Shawn Johnson (damn, she’s cute) and 2006 Olympic gold medal speed skater Apolo Ohno stunting for Nestle.

In a Team Krispies versus Team Chocolate battle, Johnson does a back flip over a moving bobsled and Ohno skates down a luge. While the stunts look very real, the likelihood the handlers behind these two would ever allow them to be put in this sort of danger is highly unlikely.

Fake or not? Who cares. It’s marketing.
