Conan: Do those suits, I gotta say, I put on one of those suits, and those, they really cling everywhere.
Apolo: They're tight.
Conan: They're quite sensual, I think, if I can say that. I'm wearing one now, underneath here, I don't want to take it off.
Apolo: [laughs]
Conan: Do they really make that big a difference in a race? I understand they're very aerodynamic, do you think if you raced dressed like that [points at Apolo], it would make a huge difference?
Apolo: Definitely, uh, for long track more than short track, I think. But, ya know, I mean Nike, ya know, they did, ya know, a lot of speed tunnel testing, a lot of wind tunnel testing, and uh...
Conan: You didn't have to get in the wind tunnel?
Apolo: No, no...
Conan: Right, they'd have a dummy or something.
Apolo: Yeah, yeah, probably something.
Conan: That'd be great - "Where's Apolo?"..."He got shot out the back...we were trying to test the suit." [laughs]
Apolo: Yeah, I think, yeah, they definitely make a difference.
Conan: Um, let's talk about, uh, it was such an amazing winter Olympics, because so many things happened that people didn't anticipate.
Apolo: Mmmhmm.
Conan: For example, in the 1000m race, there was this, it looked, you were, looked like you were going for gold in that race.
Apolo: Yeah, I thought so too.
Conan: You thought so too. You were very close to the finish line, and you, you, you could taste it, right?
Apolo: Yeah, oh yeah, I definitely could feel it, ya know, and I really thought, I was definitely confident, ya know, but...
Conan: Right. And then there's, uh, this big giant pile-up, we actually have the, the clip. Let's just look at it, I don't know if you find this...
[Shows 1000m clip]
Announcer on clip: He's reaching back for one more gear, trying to hold up lead, they bump, they BUMP, they go DOWN, a TOTAL wipeout, and BRADBURY WINS!!!
Conan: Okay, now I have to ask...
Apolo: [Laughs]
Conan: Okay, now, I have to ask you - this insane pile-up first of all. One thing that I thought when I was watching it, that I thought was hilarious, was Bradbury, who's a friend of yours.
Apolo: [Laughs] Yeah.
Conan: He's in last place, or second to last place...
Apolo: He was in last, wasn't he?
Conan: Huh? You guys all fall, he was in last - oh, nice of you to point out he was in...
Apolo: [Laughs] ...last place...
