Bobsled bruises from only a few trips down the track
Outside magazine once listed going down a bobsled track as top 100 things to do before you die. Bucket list. Speaking from experience I would highly suggest doing all other 99 things first
In one week I've seen backs blown out. People get the wind knocked out of them. Ribs out of place. 16 hour days. Cold. And we line up and do week after week of nonstop races until march
The g forces bobsled athletes are pulling on their bodies is something people are unaware
A bobsled athletes can experience around 5 or 6 G's in some of the harshest corners.
In comparison NASCAR running in ovals, G-forces are much less intense (2–3G)
So yes. Go down a bobsled track it ain't for the weak
