A year and a half before the 2002 Salt Lake Olympics I had my worst crash ever. Read about it in my book "The Courage to Succeed."

I was one of only 200 Olympians selected to carry the Olympic Torch. You can watch a streaming video of the hilarious story at www.thelugeman.com

Intense focus in preparation for a training run the week before the Olympics.

Sitting up on my sled after finishing one of my first runs ever on ice (I didn't even have luge shoes yet. I was wearing tennis shoes!).
