Arabs In Aspic
Arabs in Aspic, at times also Arabs in Aspic II, is a progressive rock band formed in 1997. They are considered an institution of Norwegian retro-prog. History Formed in 1997 as a Black Sabbath cover band, Arabs in Aspic did not have a consistent name in their initial days of producing music. Lead guitarist and vocalist Jostein Smeby played with Tommy Ingebrigtsen, who contributed as a rhythm guitarist and theremin player in various cover bands with a focus on the metal genre. The formation of the band included Hammond organ player Magnar Krutvik and two brothers, Eskil and Terje Nyhus, acting as drummer and bassist respectively. Ingebrigten's recognition as a ski jumping world champion, coupled with the other members' passion for the sport, earned them the title of being a "ski jumping band";a attribution the partners later worked to dismiss. Initially performing under different monikers, Arabs of Aspic took their name from the King Crimson album ''Larks' Tongues in Aspic,' ...

List Of The Longest Ski Jumps
Ski jumping is a winter sport in which athletes compete on distance and style in a jump from a ski jumping hill. The sport has traditionally focused on a combination of style and distance, and it was therefore early seen as unimportant in many milieus to have the longest jump. The International Ski Federation (Fédération Internationale de Ski; FIS) has largely been opposed to the inflation in hill sizes and setting of distance records, and no world records have been set at Olympic, World Championship, Holmenkollen Ski Festival or Four Hills Tournament events, as these have never been among the largest hills in the world. Since 1936, when the first jump beyond was made, all world records in the sport have been made in the discipline of ski flying, an offshoot of ski jumping using larger hills where distance is explicitly emphasised. As of March 2017, the official world record for the longest ski jump is , set by Stefan Kraft at Vikersundbakken in Vikersund, Norway. Two years pri ...
