A Real Ski Bum: Rainer Schoenfelder
Rainer Schoenfelder, an Austrian skier and sometime pop star, lost a bet with his physiotherapist who had been treating him for neck and back pain. He told his therapist that if the pains subsided by Wednesday, he'd ski down Switzerland's Lauberhorn in the altogether.
Well, his pains subsided and was forced to hit the slopes wearing yellow boots, an orange helmet, and gloves, catching the attention of, well, just about everyone, including a nearby photographer.
Said Schoenfelder: "Somehow I didn't notice the photographer. It was an internal bet and of course the whole thing wasn't planned for the public. I am happy, though, that the pains have eased up and that it was not cold when I honored my debt."
Austria's head ski coach Toni Giger didn't have a problem with it: "I have no problem with nudity in general. I haven't seen the pictures but no one was hurt. ... This was typical Schoenfelder behavior."
I'm sure Schoenfelder's glad that he didn't take a spill.
After the jump, Schoenfelder's ski run...

I think he looks perfect and if that's too beefy, I'm going to throw up my lunch right now! Nice meaty ass too.

John #1, A simple "in my opinion" would have made all the difference in your comment.
I personally like some beef on a man. I think he looks just fine.

Nice piece of beef. Anyone able to make out the butt tattoo. My Picasso is blurry. It looks like the heads and shoulders of two people.

Johnny is speaking for himself, why the need to add "in my opinion"?
Jeez, if you like beef just say so and let others speak their minds! lol..(btw it always seems like the guys who get defended the most are the beefcakes, and it's ok to slam the queenies.)

Full Frontal Nudity would clear up any doubts concerning attractive or not attractive, yes? It may be true that the proof, as they say, is in the puddin'--or in its environs anyway.
