I left the park but I forgot my rings. When I came back, someone was training on them.

@pete There’s actually a gymnast that is known as “Lord of the Rings”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBmy9JWyCS4
You’ll notice that he’s quite short. Ring specialists are never tall. I’m 5’9”, almost 5’10”. Too tall to be a ring specialist.

@verretor @gumchum Certain types of climbing are probably about as good. But climbing also requires a lot of creativity and intelligence, and in some cases courage, which I think makes top level climbers a bit less fit than equivalently high achieving athletes in other sports. It's just a smaller pool of talent to choose from.
