Holcomb & Langton Win Two-Man Bobsled World Championship at Lake Placid

Steven Holcomb (Park City, Utah) and Steve Langton (Melrose, Mass.) claimed the first two-man bobsled World Championship title ever for the U.S. in the 2012 final in Lake Placid on Sunday.

Holcomb started making history when he won the first four-man bobsled title in 50 years for the U.S. during the 2009 World Championships in Lake Placid, and then again made history by earning the first Olympic gold medal for the program in 62 years in 2010. His string of record-breaking runs continued on Sunday with world push champion Langton pushing him along.

Here is their final run. (Takes a few seconds to load.)
