The internet can’t get enough of doubles luge at the Winter Olympics.

You know luge -one person on a tiny sled, flying down an icy track. Doubles luge? Same thing… but with two people. And yes, they literally lie on top of each other.

From testing their athletic ability to their tolerance for extremely close quarters, she’s putting the duo through their paces to find out if they’re ready to become New Zealand's first doubles luge team.
