Norway's royals watch historic ski jumping

The Norwegian royal family spent a sunny day out at Holmenkollen this weekend, watching the Ski Jumping World Cup.

Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit kept their children Princess Ingrid Alexandra en Prince Sverre Magnus entertained and fed while they watched the exciting jumping.

German ski jumper Severin Freund wrote history by taking two wins this weekend, a feat never before achieved at the Oslo ski jump venue. He is also the first athlete since Thomas Morgenstern 2010, to win four times in a row.

Severin Freund on Sunday was followed by Noriaki Kasa of Japan and both Kamil Stoch from Poland and Peter Prevc from Slovenia.
