About 100 years ago, those ladies would have been called “Reubenesque”...lol.

Amazing performance...Do you know what the prize was? How much did she win?

---

She wins the right to try the first of 4 stages of Mt. Midoriyama, the ultimate obstacle course. The prize for completing all four stages without error is a paltry $250,000 and bragging rights. Only 3 Japanese men have achieved this.

Those are not hockey players - they got all their teef!

Pretty cool, thanks.

I’ll have to check that Mt. Midoriyama thing you posted to another FReeper.

Sheila Jackson Lee, Cynthia McKinney, Barbara Mikulski show up, by any chance?

The blimp on the left looks a lot like the ex IT supervisor I had to deal with. Her personality was 3X as bad her looks. But that shift didn’t happen until a few weeks after I started.

Those are some good looking hockey players!

[Mycroft Holmes]

Couldn't help myself...

Much easier on the eyes than sumo warriorettes would be.
