And just as a show wants to offer Darren in the coming week the athletes in the Olympic village. Darren: "Our sport is not true Olympian, but perhaps that will do something. I would be delighted. Next week I will also show the first time Olympic athletes a taste of my sport. "
The lumberjack is a volunteer during the Games as an assistant at the athletes' village. "The stars are all very nice, but often very focused and concentrated on their competitions," says Darren. In his show he wants to loosen Magdalena Neuner and Co. a little bit and present the diversity of Canada.
"You know, in the summer about 5,000 visitors come specially to Squamish to visit our Lumberjack Festival. There's more going on in our nest than at the Olympics. "For Sunday-EXPRESS Darren gives an insight into his amazing art. Throwing axes, chain saws and felling trees-speed competition - he has mastered each tool to perfection.
