0:02:04 > 0:02:07Winter Olympics stuff now and to the sport of Curling.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09Last night, Great Britain's men's team failed to get

0:02:09 > 0:02:11a place in the semi finals.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13But Great Britain s women have made it - they play Sweden

0:02:13 > 0:02:15in the semis tomorrow.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18So we thought now was a good time to give you five fun facts

0:02:18 > 0:02:21about the sport itself...

0:02:23 > 0:02:26First up, let's take a look at the shoes.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29They don't wear heels, that's for sure.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33Curlers wear two different shoes when they are on the ice.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36On one foot they have a sliding sole which allows the athlete to slide

0:02:36 > 0:02:39when they throw the stone or when they are sweeping.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41On the other foot, the shoe is just a normal

0:02:41 > 0:02:45athletic shoe but the sole has to be the same thickness as the slider to

0:02:45 > 0:02:48keep the curler level.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55The ice is a very important part of the game,

0:02:55 > 0:02:57small droplets of water are sprayed onto it,

0:02:57 > 0:02:58that's called pebbling and

0:02:58 > 0:03:02it means the surface is in tiptop condition for the rocks to glide

0:03:02 > 0:03:04smoothly along the surface.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11Curling stones are made out of real rock

0:03:11 > 0:03:12called granite.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14It's used because it's so hard and tough.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16All curling stones for competitors around the

0:03:16 > 0:03:19world are made in Scotland, all of the granite used runs

0:03:19 > 0:03:23from this rock called Ailsa Craig on the coast

0:03:23 > 0:03:23of Ayrshire which in Gaelic

0:03:23 > 0:03:30means 'fairy rock'.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33The hog line is this area of the ice, each player's stone

0:03:33 > 0:03:35must go over this line, if it doesn't, the

0:03:35 > 0:03:37stone will be removed from play.

0:03:37 > 0:03:43No good.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Boys and girls, this could be the most

0:03:49 > 0:03:50exciting move in curling, a

0:03:50 > 0:03:53good old-fashioned lunge, look how much fun she is having.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55This technique is used by the athlete to

0:03:55 > 0:03:57make sure they have good direction and balance

0:03:57 > 0:03:58when they are moving the

0:03:58 > 0:03:59stone.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02One, two, three, lunge!

0:04:07 > 0:04:09Good luck to the women.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11Manchester United were held to a goalless draw at

0:04:11 > 0:04:13Sevilla in the first leg of their Champions

0:04:13 > 0:04:14League last 16 tie.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17Record signing Paul Pogba was left on the bench,

0:04:17 > 0:04:19although he did replace the injured Ander Herrera in the first half.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22United's David de Gea made some great saves to keep

0:04:22 > 0:04:26the score at nil-nil.

0:04:26 > 0:04:27Mourinho's side produced just six shots compared

0:04:27 > 0:04:30with 25 by the home side.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33If you're not a fan of heights, look away now.

0:04:38 > 0:04:39Snaking through the mountains

0:04:39 > 0:04:40of northern China, this

0:04:40 > 0:04:42is the world's longest glass suspension bridge.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44It's nearly 500 metres long with a vertical drop

0:04:44 > 0:04:47of more than 200 metres - it is supposed to represent a dragon

0:04:47 > 0:04:49flying through the valley.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52It's designed to take up to 2000 people at a time.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54That's it from us.
