Paris Olympics 2024: The Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games being held in France are the biggest games ever. All the games played during this time and their wins and losses will be recorded in history. Nowadays, news of players winning in different games is coming from different countries.
Winning an Olympic medal is a once in a lifetime opportunity for any athlete, but what if the medal loses its shine even before the Olympics are over? American athlete Nyjah Huston, who won bronze medal in the current Paris Olympics 2024, has also made the same allegation that the color of the medal I got has faded and it has started to deteriorate.
Naija, a member of the USA Skateboard Team at Paris 2024, has taken to social media to express concern over the quality of Olympic medals. The 29-year-old won a bronze medal on July 30 after finishing third in men's street skateboarding. Japan's Uto and Horigome won gold and America's Jagger Eaton won silver in the sport.
What did Naija say?
The famous skateboarder, who has won 18 gold medals at the X Games and World Championships, shared a picture of his bronze medal on Instagram on Thursday. He said in a video that these Olympic medals look good when they are new. But after keeping it on your sweaty skin for a while and then giving it to your friends over the weekend, its quality comes to the fore. It has been just a week since he won these medals.
increase the quality a bit
“I mean, look at this thing,” he continued. It looks rough. The front is starting to wobbly a little bit. I don’t know but maybe the quality needs to be increased a little bit. The lack of quality in Houston’s medal is evident in the video, with paint peeling off on both sides.
Let us tell you that the Olympic 2024 medals are unique as they are made using collected pieces of iron used in the construction of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
