Video: Olympic fencing controversy depicted with LEGO




You may have seen or at least heard about the controversial finish to an Olympic women’s fencing semifinal yesterday, when what appeared to be a clock malfunction gave Germany’s Britta Heidemann a victory over South Korea’s Shin A Lam. A devastated Shin remained on the piste (the platform thingy they sword fight on, I guess) for over an hour waiting for her appeal to be heard. The geniuses at UK’s The Guardian have a video re-creation of the fiasco … with LEGO!

Seriously, I would watch all sports if they were done with LEGO.
