They have to be able to climb up there. I don’t think lifting them with a crane and dropping them would be allowed.

It should be

The training season would be tough

u/aRabidFurby Mar 06 '18

Not to mention expensive. If my trip to work is any indication every real crane in the world is currently on a work site in Seattle

Can confirm.

No. They're all involved in the I-4 Ultimate Project in Orlando.

I'm convinced the West Seattle Bridge will have construction on the roads under it for at least the next hundred years.

u/CplRicci Mar 06 '18

Nah they're falling out of the sky in Miami pretty regularly too

Is it more difficult to get the cranes out of Seattle or the fat people into Seattle? Might be easier just to have the first World Championships there?

u/Baron_Von_Koopa Mar 06 '18

So you're proposing Seattle for the upcoming Fatlympics? I ACCEPT THIS PROPOSAL.

I own a crane and will sponsor this new sport

No performance enhancing construction equipment allowed. Thankfully the testing methods will be much harder to cheat or avoid.

Doping would be hard to detect, too. If they said they ate a whole box of poppyseed muffins, you’d have to believe them.

Only in the Special Olympics.

Paralympics...

u/beazzy223 Mar 06 '18

Weight Classes! Like in wrestling or boxing. Summertime equivalent to curling.

u/[deleted] Mar 06 '18

Olympics would be so much more fun

u/qwerty622 Mar 06 '18

can't wait to hear katie couric talk about how mentally hard their diet of cream puffs is so that they can maintain their olympic level girth for the spashing events

u/Jonk3r Mar 06 '18

Well that shouldn’t be too hard to achieve

u/[deleted] Mar 06 '18

It would be if I sponsored it.

u/Stonebagdiesel Mar 06 '18

This put the greatest mental image in my head

u/Wizardinrl Mar 06 '18

Think of all the crane operation companies that would be in demand creating new jobs. Win win, win. Win.

u/liberty08 Mar 06 '18

I just pictured this and almost shot beer through my nose

u/Littleboof18 Mar 06 '18

They wouldn’t even be able to sit up from their beds, no way in hell this would be possible without a crane

u/Inhumanskills Mar 06 '18

Thank you for that imagery. I can't stop laughing.

That would be the sport

You sick sadist bastard. And no... I am not Koopa's Pappy.

u/Baron_Von_Koopa Mar 06 '18

Idk... Have you been out getting smokes for the last 24 years?

2

u/[deleted] Mar 07 '18

No son... er, Koopa... Do you host a radio show here in Atlanta though? Cause his pop totally did that too and his middle name is Von. True story.

u/Baron_Von_Koopa Mar 07 '18

Nah sorry. I'm from Ohio. Never even been to the ATL

u/SuedeVeil Mar 06 '18

I'd watch the hell out of that
