    Australia: punching way above its weight class.

    It’s the Vegemite, I’m sure of it.

      Yeah, there’s a few in here I’d like to see as per capita.

      The fauna in Australia culls the weak so the only people who grow old enough to compete are stronger than the worldwide average.

        Having to hold on for dear life all the time gives upper arms strength.

      I mean, Australia only has 11 more medals than East Germany. A country that hasn’t existed for 34 years. And which had only two thirds of the population of Australia. That’s punching about your weight class. And all it takes is systemic abuse of athletes.

      Australia is doing almost as well as Hungary, which has about 1/3 Australia’s population

      I dunno I feel like Australian culture is pretty positive towards fitness in general no?
