Psychoanalyze Simon Dumont

Yeah that's basically the assignment. Obviously there's the inferiority complex with being short and all that. I'm looking for more. I was hoping some psychology students could help me out.

Thanks
 
you are asking us to pshychoanalyze someone we don't even know?

maybe you should pshychoanalyze yourself.
 
what's the assignment, judging someone you don't know? that's really stupid. I am a psychology student and i will not help you. this is not psychology at all.
 
Woah woah woah

don't people pshycoanalyze famous people and historical figures all the time?

I'm not judging the dude or making fun of him.

He certainly has gotten a lot of attention lately and I thought it would be interesting to look into some of the comments he's made about being a pipe skier and the whole breaking the quarter pip record and what not.

I'm not hating on him or anything chill the fuck out.

It's school assignment, maybe a shitty one but none the less....
 
there is absolutely nothing ns kiddos like to do more than hate on hate. real or imagined. kind of funny actually
 
You picked a terrible public figure to do your assignment on. I have my bachelors in psychology and minored in cognitive science, and as everyone above has stated, most of your conclusions will be based upon assumptions derived from his interviews (and possibly videos depicting his mannerisms and behavior). Then again, that is all they will be - assumptions. It's extremely difficult to analyze someone without actually speaking to them in person and asking the questions you need answered. Deducing that someone has an inferiority complex based upon their height measurements is a fallible method of psychoanalyzation. By that logic, you can say he also suffers from Narcissistic Personality Disorder due to the reverence the freeskiing community has for him. Pick someone else like an author or movie director, as their personal expressions of who they are is personified through their work.
 
Well thanks for the real feedback. That makes sense but at the same time I don't really think it's a problem if the assignment is purely based on assumptions. My teacher is looking for nothing but a very basic understanding of this stuff.

I guess I'll just do my own homework though whateverrr.
 
Simon Dumont.. A mystery at it's best. I am somewhat of an expert on the subject.

I recently wrote an evaluation of the more important points of Simons character and sent it to John Symms. Observe my work:

I am writing to inform you that there

has been a death in the family, A rogue in the system, or in simple

words, something that simply shouldn't be said, and just isn't right.

I am, before your very eyes, answering Question Four, "Three Reasons

Why Simon Dumont is the most attractive man alive." First(!) may I

bring to attention his dreamy eyes. Bluer than a the depths of Lake

Tahoe, colder than a Whistler pow day, yet as vibrant as a warm spring

morning, as yearning as a summer glacier jump line calling your name,

and as wistful as having to leave the mountain 5 hours before closing.

They speak of summers gone by and winters yet to come, of comp runs yet

to stomp and pillow lines waiting to be slashed. The only comparison I

can find is the near perfect Zac Efron(see link A), who pales in

comparison to Simon's heavenly good looks and ravishing charm.

Secondly is his hair. A simple search on Google images reveals

that The Dumont's hair is perfection at it's best. It perfectly rests

above his heart-stopping smile, perfectly straight with a slight wave

towards the end. Even after a long hard day of progressing the sport

and showing up all the would be competition, his helmet hair puts all

other forms of hair to death(see link B. It is like a quiet seduction,

a warm summers sunset over the Costa Rican Pacific Coast. The way it

tosses in the wind after a perfectly executed cork 900 and the way it

frames his face, with a Red Bull New Era hat playfully perched on the

top.

Lastly, his immaculate goggle tan. The contrast from the

flawless patch of skin above his angelic arching eyebrows to the

chiseled cheek bones, and finely shaped chin is enough to make anyones

heart skip a beat(see link C). This most perfect of tans can only be

achieved by hours upon hours of slaying, shralping,killing,slaying and

shralping, pow, park, pipe, urban, and the explicit gnar, and EVERYONE

loves a hard working man.

Though he is the target of

so much hate and often accused of selling out, Simon Dumont is the

image of a freestyle skier. Not to mention his work with the Target

House for disfigured children. He is a model citizen, not partaking in

the counter-culture practices of of certain Rastafari inspired

athletes, or the disgustingly urban-inspired underground ski crews,

Simon is a man who we can all wake,ahem,look up to.

Best Regards,

Aaaron

can i get a no homo?
jesus- dumont is suck, i just think short person syndrome as a whole is something that affects many, such as napoleon bonaparte, as the shorts feel as if the world is out to get them, and they need to seemingly prove them wrong.

 
Simon Dumont is far from famous. Maybe in our little niche here on the internet, but really beyond the ns crowd, nobody knows who he is.
 
Are you kidding me? Simon Dumont is becoming a household name. Not on the Shaun White level, but he is definitely the face of the sport.

Think of how many people saw him on the Ellen Degeneres show, on MTV's TRL, and when he was co-host of Sportscenter. And think of all the press he got after he broke the World QP Record. He was in newspapers, magazines, and news broadcasts all over the world.

To say that he is only known within the newschool community is a very, very bold statement.
 
i know hes famous because whenever i search any other skier on google images it asksDid you mean: Simon Dumont which bothers me because clearly Jon Olsson or Jossi Wells is spelled nothing like Simon Dumont
 
I must say that you are being quite stubborn and ignorant. Please contemplate this picture and realize how wrong you are.

You don't have to be a household name to be considered famous.

Obviously there are different levels of "fame" and Mr. Dumont is pretty high up there.

Also, NS fucking loves to judge on Simon Dumont, I figured it'd be a good place to go. So everyone in this thread bitching about my project can pull there bunched up shitty panties out of there ass crack and shut the fuck up.
 
Just because he was on mtv, does not make him a household name. He is famous, compared to you and me, but a household name, he is not.

Im not hating on dumont at all, im disagreeing with people calling him a household name.
 
that is not the right thing to say, if you don't want your karma to the ground...

plus i think he is attractive.
 
Yeah I think I was agreeing with you.

I said you don't have to be a household name to be famous

and you are right, he is by no means a household name

However, I would call him famous
 
your karmas!!

they are dropping as we speak.

plus people will just spam this thread (like me) if you act like a jerk off to them
