Olympia La Pere
- Olympia La Pere: This was a good act. You see, they lift, lift, lift and then the last guy does a one-hand 350 barbell lift. Then while he's still got it up I come on and lift him with his barbell together. Peeled down, see, so they could tell I was a woman.
- Amanda Bonner: Just what is it that you do?
- Olympia La Pere: Well, it changes, see? Like, take, for instance, tumbling. I used to do a lot of that tumbling but it gets corny, and I'm stuck with the role of flip-flap.
- Olympia La Pere: We do this open pyramid where I support five men.
- Amanda Bonner: Surely, you're not the only female who does that.
