But Ingemar Stenmark, who himself has a number of Olympic medals in alpine skiing, believes that Vonn knows what she is doing.
"You might think it's crazy, but I think she probably knows her body pretty well. She probably wouldn't go if she didn't think it would work," he tells SVT.
He even thinks she can win a medal.
I absolutely believe so.
But he himself had never attempted anything like this.
No, never. She must be an alien!
The women's downhill race starts at 11:30 on Sunday.
