ok, another stupid question..do you think shaolin monks (or navy seals)would do great in the olympics?

Being that the Olympics originated in Greece and the participants were naked young men. I would much rather see a Navy Seal than a Shaolin Monk. Only problem, women were not allowed in the stadium. Oh, Drat!!! I forgot that part.

That is a brilliant question. I think that you bring up a very good question and my answer is yes. I think that the seals might do good but the monks with their super powers is a definate yes.

olympians are olympians. monks are monks and seals are seals. they all do what they're best at. some may be able to contend better than others, but that is all.

Neither. They are not trained in games. Regardless their skills in combat they are not very good at individual sports. This is kind of like talking about a combined or multi-event athlete who is great over all, but is not great at any one thing.
