It must have been his second Olympics...the rest of the world had caught up where they were now on the same planet as him (as opposed to the same solar system the first go-around).
Still, he came to the final run and basically all he had to do was slide down the middle of the pipe and not fall and he'd win gold again. The mic caught up part of a conversation with his coach that was something like "What do I do?" and the coach said "Go for it...and when you get to the last part, make sure you f***ing nail it!".
He nodded, went out, did his thing, and to end his run did something nobody had seen before, and he f***ing nailed it.
Yup....still Babe Ruth.
