Incredible contrast at the Olympics! The Human Factor vs. Technological Edge: A Tale of Two Athletes In a stunning Olympic display, Turkey challenged the norm by sending a 51-year-old competitor, clad in nothing more than a t-shirt, to face off against a technologically-enhanced opponent. While the latter, equipped with state-of-the-art gear, secured gold, the elder athlete's silver medal is a testament to raw human potential and the enduring spirit of competition. This remarkable contrast underscores the evolving landscape of sports, where age-old determination meets cutting-edge innovation. #Olympics #sports #technology #humanpotential

The medals of the next Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024 have been unveiled! Whether they are gold, silver or bronze, they will all contain a very special piece of metal that was once part of the Eiffel Tower. Cut into a hexagon, the geometric shape evokes France to the point of becoming its nickname. Also on the same side, thin lines are projected at irregular intervals all around the iron hexagon. Struck rather than engraved, these rays bring relief and shine to a medal that is far from smooth.

One of the key events in the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is called the Parade of Nations. Why do athletes from Greece always march first in this parade? This is because the Olympics originated in Greece thousands of years ago, and the first modern Olympics took place here in 1896. The countries that will follow Greece is decided in alphabetical order, but the language is not always in English. The host nation’s national or official language is sometimes used. On the other hand, the host country is always the last in the parade. In this case, it will be France, marching as the 205th nation/team. The USA will be the 204th nation because it is the host of the next Olympics in Los Angeles in 2028. Australia will be the 203rd nation because they have been designated as the preferred host nation for the 2032 Olympics. #trivia #quiz #gk #knowledge #facts #dailytrivia #didyouknow #fact #factsdaily #instafacts #truefacts #science #factsoflife #doyouknow #sciencefacts #realfacts #allfacts #factoftheday #gk #sports #olympics #Paris2024 #india #sports #IndianSports #IndianAthletes #Cheer4India #TeamIndia #ParisOlympics #OlympicGamesParis

Paris 2024: The incredible story behind the Olympic and Paralympic medals The athletes who will compete at the Olympic Games Paris 2024 now have an extra motivation to reach the podium: in addition to bringing home a gold, silver or bronze medal, they will also take a small piece of Paris with them, materialised by a section of the Eiffel Tower integrated in each one. It all began with a rather special brief. Bring creativity and poignancy to a classic yet essential object symbolising the Olympic and Paralympic Games. But how can the medal be even more special? Is it possible to go beyond the traditional with something as classic and long-established as the medals? The answer: yes. By including a piece of France inside – literally. Chaumet, the French jewellery house, used its world-recognised expertise to take the concept to another level in order to magnify the idea, make it shine and give life to something that could have been ridiculous, but turned out to be quite special. This time, the designers didn’t have to deal with a timeless diamond or a ruby, but a material that had aged. They decided to think of it and work with it: the Eiffel Tower, at the centre of an exceptional jewel. Each medal made for Paris 2024, revealed on Thursday 8 February, has an original piece of the Eiffel Tower in it, and it comes with a supporting certificate of authenticity.
