    Newcomer First day of the Olympics in Paris: Argentines say "This is a disaster"

    This athlete didn't go viral for his skill but because his anatomy caused him to lose the competition by knocking the bar with his groin during the Olympic event.😂 However, things haven't turned out so badly for him. A porn site offered the pole vaulter $250,000 to film a one-hour video.

    Newcomer First day of the Olympics in Paris: Argentines say "This is a disaster"

    It's terrible that they didn't consider the inequality of conditions. In fact, there is already a precedent, she was disqualified from the 2023 Women's Boxing World Championship for failing the eligibility tests (excess testosterone). I think the authorities should intervene.
