Vedi quanto sono pazzi i finlandesi!?

Qui molti dicono che "Uusipaavalniemi on jumala"!
Ma è vero che è un mito... la wikipedia dice che:
# He was once the best mathematics student in Finland; as a high school senior, he had the top score in a nationwide test.
# He was once an excellent diver. In 1987, after training for just six months, he was ranked third in Finland. He gave up his university studies, and moved to Long Beach, California, where he was coached by two-time Olympic champion Sammy Lee. His goal was to make the 1992 Summer Olympics, but an injury wrecked these dreams, and he eventually had to retire because of money trouble.
# He has also played Finnish baseball. Reportedly, he has been able throw the ball at 140 km/h, a feat only accomplished by a few of today's top players.
# He has successfully completed a Rubik's cube in 25 seconds.
E ora è uno dei migliori giocatori di curling al mondo!!!
Un genio...
