I got to hang out with Thiel and the CrossFit Central crew for a couple days last week. Jeremy is just an all around cool cat. Definitely a poster boy for CrossFit world wide!

The screaming and aggression is awesome. Jeremy is my favorite competitor from last year's games. I liked his interview on CrossFit radio too.

He's exempt from the qualifier, right? We don't actually have to compete against this machine, right? RIGHT?
