That famous yawn by Apolo Anton Ohno before each race

VANCOUVER, British Columbia – to us, the television viewers Apolo Anton Ohno may look a little…, well bored. Seconds before each major race Ohno was seen yawning. It leaves us all questioning how can the fiercely fit skater switch gears from a yawning “park” mode to a bat out of hell gear, claiming medal after medal. And claim he did becoming the Winter Olympian with the most medals in U.S. history (when he won the bronze medal). According to some inspired investigation by Yahoo! Sports “there is madness behind Ohno’s moribundity.” A friend of Ohno’s (remaining nameless) because, hello, “Apolo might not like it.”  – revealed that the yawning lets extra oxygen into the Olympian’s lungs in the seconds before bursting across the ice. Ohno himself confirmed as much to Yahoo! Sports. “It makes me feel better,” he said. “It gets the oxygen in and the nerves out.”
