I think the trampoline surprised everyone, but the #1 trampoliner's name is Dong Dong, so all is well.

On whatever day Dong won the gold in trampoline, Chen Ding won the 20k race walk for China.

Ding Dong FTW (for the win)

Walking and trampoline. Between that and the boxer who initially was given a win while being knocked down 5 times in the 3rd round, it just amazes me that people take this unmitigated farce seriously.

Its not as difficult a reason to fathom as you might think...(I was going to say something really mean but I decided to withhold those thoughts)
