2/15/2006: Matt and Al get cozy
As threatened, Matt Lauer & Al Roker went double-luging on the "Today" show today. It wasn't a pretty sight. The audio guys had fun attaching appropriate songs to the action, but the music ends when they hit the track so we can enjoy their squeals of delight (mostly Al's).. or maybe it's terror.
Here Matt learns he's going to be the bottom, and they assume the position
Understandly, Al has a much better time than Matt throughout the ordeal - Al's only iffy moment is when their trainers use the word "crash".. it's kind of interesting how they stay in double-up formation while they have a Q&A with the trainers
Then they strip down to their aqua fetish suits and pose for each other
Al's still having more fun than Matt when they hit the track, and then they're off.. with a giggle
I'm sure they felt they were streaking along at the 80-85 mph that the real guys slide, but their run was a lot more leisurely, and a lot shorter.. when they finish Al wants to go again but Matt's not so sure - I don't want to know what Matt's trying to say in this last pic
I think they headed off to look at rings afterwards.
Click to watch the video .. but don't say I didn't warn you.
