The Olympics Are Ending Today, So Here’s Speed Skating Mario Kart-Style

The Olympics are over as of today! To stave off your inevitable Olympic-withdrawal symptoms, we present you this video created by Michael Shanks (probably not the Stargate SG-1 guy). It’s a Speed Skating run – but with all the trappings of a Mario Kart course. Oh, and the narration is perfect.

If you’ve ever wanted to see someone blue-shelled IRL, now’s your chance.
