a olimpiyan from Georgia ( the country) died at the age of 21. His name is Nodar Kumaritshvili he practiced for for luge. It was unclear how fast he was going, but luge players can go 90 miles an hour. He was praticing and just before the end of the track he ejected out of his sled and into bars, and he then died. Days before he went to the olimpics he died. This is sad for the player and his family. this is a clip of the player I do warn that it may noy be appropriet for some viewers.
