Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, hits the wall as he slides down the track on a skeleton sled during an Invictus Games training camp, in Whistler, B.C., Thursday, Feb. 15, 2024. Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025 is scheduled to take place from Feb. 8 to 16, 2025 and will for the first time feature winter sports.
Experiencing high speeds face-first on a skeleton sled "should be compulsory," Prince Harry said after completing his sled run in Whistler.Posted: Feb 15, 2024 6:33 PM EST | Last Updated: 4 hours ago
Experienced sliders start at the top of the track, although the prince started at the halfway mark, and still his sled reached 99 kilometres per hour with a bumpy ending off the sides as he finished. The 2025 games will be the first to feature winter sports, including the skeleton, skiing events and wheelchair curling, but they will also host indoor rowing, sitting volleyball, swimming, wheelchair rugby and wheelchair basketball events as it has previously.
He previously competed in rowing, seated volleyball, archery and field sports at the 2023 Games in Germany, which he says was an "incredible" experience.
