The daring skeleton-sledding racers along the now-legendary Cresta Run at St. Moritz took their lives into their own hands as they attempted to race the dangerous, icy course – the first of its kind – travelling at speeds of 40-50 miles per hour while lying face-down on a low-riding sled. Included are views of the speedometer device used by officials as each rider completes the course, spectators standing just feet from the flying sleds and a few points in which riders lose control while negotiating hairpin turns.
