Dreadlocked Swedish skier wants you to know Wu Tang is for the children

Swedish skier Henrik Harlaut seized the exposure granted by a run at Sochi to remind the world something important: Wu Tang is for the children.

The Olympics have not traditionally been a gathering of the masses that come to pay respect to the Wu-Tang Clan, but the pioneering Swede saw the camera zooming in, threw up his W, and echoed the words spoken by late rapper Ol’ Dirty Bastard when he interrupted the Grammy Awards on behalf of his group in 1998.

Then, during his run, Harlaut nearly lost his pants.

At least he didn’t have to endure a snarky public shaming from Kelsey Grammar.
