Second, not everyone has access to the same "help". I mean to a point this is true today as well as not everyone has access to universities developing snake scale outfits or what have you, but at the same time most olympic sports are still about the human performance. But this is why e.g. F1 has such strict regulations that get tightened every year; if it hadn't, the richest team would win, or the one that has an innovation this year (like side skirts) that other teams don't.
- cooper_ganglia 2y agoI want to see the unholy abominations that would come out of a billionaire match-up between Bezos, Musk, and Gates all sponsoring a competitor. Just a heap of unnatural flesh, vaguely in the shape of a human, pumped full of every possible performance-enhancing drug to be the best possible athlete. Actually, my entire premise for this is actually based on F1 racing, and how they operate. Every team literally has no rules, other than: Do not kill or injure anyone. Nearly anything else outside of that very broad limit would be allowed. I just think it would end up being very interesting and funny.
