Default TG-olympics, the Stig is a sissy

Two thing which I realized watching the great episode of TG again.


at the end, in the credits text, it says:

ANNI-FRID STIG stunt double
(Anni Frid was one of the ABBA chicks btw)



and the STIG was doing the smaller skijump , not the big one as the mini
I'm very dissapointed of the Stig

Yeah, like I mentioned in the video download comments, I really doubt htat was the same stig from the regular series.

Either way, that Norwegian nut job that jumped the snow mobile off that ski ramp is absolutely crazy.

ANNI-FRID STIG stunt double
(Anni Frid was one of the ABBA chicks btw)

"Björn Clarkson, Benny Hammond, Agnetha May and Anni-Frid Stig" so they coverad alla ABBA-members.

Exactly and not only that, they all had Norweigan names in the end credits. :roll:
