The joint gold medal is a first for any skiing event in Olympic history. It’s the result of the quirky nature of time keeping.

Downhill racer (and Sochi Olympics contender) Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway is airborne on his way down the challenging Streif ski track at the Hahnenkamm men's Alpine Skiing World Cup Downhill race in Kitzbuhel, Austria in 2012.
