Key & Peele Nail Aerobic Vid Spoof

I can't let August pass without a post.

First of all, is aerobics still a thing?

In any case, this video from the 1988 USA National Aerobic Championship is utterly ridiculous.
It's so 80s it hurts. The music, the attire, the hairstyles, the TV presentation, the constant smiles.





Yap. Cocaine's one hell of a drug!


And here's Key & Peele's take on the subject.
Brilliant. Just brilliant.





Now I can't get that music out my head! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!

The Korbut Flip

The amazing performance by Olga Korbut in the gymnastics competition of the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich. According to the video poster, this is the first backwards release move ever attempted on the uneven bars. Her characteristic move can no longer be performed because standing on the high bar is no longer allowed.



I admit that before yesterday I had no idea of her performance or even existence.
Who knows how many videos like these are scattered around the internet waiting to be discovered.
