Ski jumping is a little-known sport, where athletes ski down an extremely tall ramp, called an in-run, and then attempt to fly as far as possible and land on the out-run, which is the snow-covered (or plastic-covered if there is no snow) face of an extremely tall mountain. The ski jumper who lands the furthest on the out-run without dying is pronounced the winner.
