Im sorry maybe I've watched to much of it to recently but the ENTIRE thing (especially the announcer) just reeks of Montey Python. I kept looking for Cleese to pop up any second...

That was absolutely awesome. I love these kinds of sports where it's a carefully choreographed team effort that takes constant repetition in training all for a single make-or-break run. No room for individual show-boating there.
