Nah an average man would suck ass at curling. Believe me I have a girl friend who does curling semi professionally and invited us to come try a couple times. It’s way harder than it looks and if you never tried it before you will not get a single stone inside the circle. The amount of control needed for that is not something an average person has.
When I was a kid and didn’t know anything about any celebrities other than what I saw on TV or heard on the radio, I used to enjoy some stand-up by Seinfeld.
Yeah pushing the stone is not an issue since you do it with your legs. Your hands don’t really do much apart from giving the stone a bit of spin if you need it.
What events do you reckon an average Joe would crush? I’m struggling to think of one.
Mental gymnastics of course.
curling is the only thing i can think of. Maybe a luge but thats just because the extra weight gives him an advantage.

Inertia is a loooong process, you’re right that’s why dudes just fire 100 mph pucks at each other
Shout out to the US women’s hockey team though, they’re crushing it
I think being a decathlete is a bigger advantage because they have a better intuitive feeling of physics.

One joke I once enjoyed from him is that the luge is the only Olympic sport one might engage in involuntarily.
