This would be the U.S. first gold medal if the girl stays on top.

DAMN, another American contender down!

She seemed like she was on pace for a great run too.

US girl just ate it, but it does guarantee the other US woman currently on top (Barkee?) a medal so it is bittersweet.

Looked good to me. We'll see. Still slower than the U.S. girl.

I'm surprised more people haven't had accidents/died with the luge. This is crazy.

They're hauling ass still, even from what was supposed to be the women's starting line. They're hitting 89-91 MPH by the end of the run.

I've never gone that fast in a car (80/85mph) let alone rocketing down a slide on a sled.
