I don't understand this shooting stance. Do they have to stand like that? It's 10 metres and they're all a bit crap. 

 

Also, the scoring system. Shoot near the centre! 21.6 ! Yes! What?....

German shooter is a beauty though.

Are America winning?

I'm not even remotely patriotic (let alone royalist), but let's face it - no-one's ever going to top James Bond and the Queen parachuting into Wembley stadium. 

London stadium 

( unless I’ve missed the joke ? )

The bulls eye is half a mm wide and they are aiming at it from 10m away. Your own heartbeat will vibrate your arm enough to throw you off target.

Wow Australia absolutely **** that last dive when challenging the USA for SIlver and end up handing Bronze to GB instead! What drama.

Yeah, felt bad for her, but obviously delighted for GB. I didn't see Australia making that sort of mistake. 

China and USA were both next level.

If this is the air rifle shooting it's hilarious. They're dressed in these full body leather suits that allow almost no movement. They're walking around like lego men. 

Basically turned themselves into human tripods.

It's probably a piece of piss. 

I expect you could trot down to your local club and just rattle off a few dozen bullseyes standing on one leg.

I was being very facetious. But, yeah give me a few pints I could spit a drawing pin on the target.

Huh, I totally missed that bit! I feel like I have to like Gojira because YouTube music always insists on playing Stranded when whatever I'm listening to has finished. It's like I have no choice in the matter.

I decided to watch the opening ceremony.

I was curious to watch it after reading comments on Twitter

It was magnificent because it seems to have triggered every f***ing knobhead this side of the Moskva River

Just watched my first Judo match ever. Swedish girl lost because of a warning.

Me: "Seemed like harsh warning that. Ref is shit." How would I know?
