The men''s luge at the 2010 Winter Olympics took place on 13 14 February 2010 at the Whistler Sliding Centre in Whistler, British Columbia. Germany''s Felix Loch was the two-time defending world champion and won the gold medal with the fastest time in each of the four runs. The test event that took place at the venue was won by Germany''s David Möller, who would win the silver medal in this event. Italy''s Armin Zöggeler was the two-time defending Olympic champion and won a bronze medal in this event. The last World Cup event prior to the 2010 games took place in Cesana, Italy on 30 January 2010 and was won by Zöggeler, who also won the overall World Cup title. As a consequence of the training accident that killed Nodar Kumaritashvili on 13 February 2010 officials moved the start of the men''s singles competition to the women''s/doubles start to reduce the speed of the racers. This change was met with mixed reviews, with some participants saying that the change made them feel safer, while others complained that it gave an advantage to stronger starters.
