|
In their hotel room
|
|
|
At the very top of the ski jump
|

Hitting on the female pub owner
|
|
|
During a fistfight

As explained by Bronson Peary, this summarizes the Jumper's Paradox:
|
|
|
Fast, slow, up, down
|
|
|
Back, hard, soft, up
|
|
|
Up, back, forward, down
|
|
|
Recklessly, carelessly, fearfully, bravely
|

|
|

|
|

|
The British Olympic Committee (those bastards!) pull this dirt trick on Eddie:
|
|
|
They change the qualifying distance
|
|
|
They tell Eddie he is too short
|
|
|
They impose an impossibly expensive registration fee
|
|
|
They tell him the wrong time of departure for the flight to the Olympics
|
|

|
Peary outfits Eddie with equipment:
|
|
|

|
|
|
Pilfered from the lost and found
|
|
|
Stolen from the rival jumpers' lockers
|
|

|
|
|

|
When Eddie tells Peary that he has, in fact, qualified for the Olympics,
|
|
|
Peary breaks down in tears
|
|
|
Peary tells him they should wait another four years
|
|
|
Peary is drunk and punches Eddie
|
|
|
Peary decides to sell his house
|
|
26.
|
Eddie calls Peary this, leading to their break and Eddie going to Canada without him:
|
|
|
A hacking wanker
|
|
|
A washed-up bastard
|
|
|
A heartless loser
|
|
|
A drunk fool
|
|
27.
|
Baited by one of his teammates, Eddie gets really, really drunk and misses:
|
|
|
His plane to Canada
|
|
|
The Opening Ceremonies
|
|
|
His practice jump
|
|
|

|
|
