Pentathlon B

[amerikestrel]

It's science, and you can't argue with science!

Everything that happens in Science Olympiad I call science.

[zyzzyva980]

I wouldn't exactly call this event science (well, most of it I wouldn't), but that's a fair observation

[paleonaps]

Pentathlon is science in small, easy to swallow doses. And it's also real science.

Also agreed.

Just adding this: I took pictures for some of J.T. Lambert's events, and the Pentathlon team was all guys. And they got 2nd which was nice even though they didn't expect to.

[paleonaps]

If you get the teams permission, can you post them?

[EastStroudsburg13]

Erm, possibly, but I don't think so. Plus that'll have to wait until sometime in September even if I manage to obtain permission to post the pictures, which I might not do anyway.

[zyzzyva980]

You can generally interchange Pentathlon pictures with anything involving people doing something stupid.

"Hey, here's a guy jumping off a roof!"
"I know, that was the group athletic challenge. We all had to do that."

[paleonaps]

"Why are you looking down the barrel of an M16?
"It was my challenge to figure out how to make it more lethal. I had to test my changes."

[zyzzyva980]

Oh, there are so many possibilities.

"Why are you speeding towards the lake on a unicycle?"
"I had to do a triple back flip while singing the Star Spangled Banner in German for Pentathlon- *over* the lake"
