8 Athletes That Were Caught Cheating at Olympic Games

Every award athletes win is the result of years of hard work. You have to train all the time, limit yourself, overcome yourself, strive for victory and fight for the award no matter what. Especially when it comes to the Olympics, the main sporting event of the planet. However, not all of its participants are willing to compete honestly. History knows many examples of fraud and athletes that choose to cheat in pursuit of victory. But even among all these cases, there are truly outstanding examples. Today we will talk about them.

I heard the tug a war controversy differently. I had heard the rule was that only “everyday foot ware” was legal. The team with the steel boots said, ”we wear them everyday”.

If you can do a pentathlon drunk and still medal, you deserve that medal.

This is why cheaters never win... Well, the cheaters who get caught at least.

I say they should do separate sporting events and separate Olympic Games where they allow things like steroids and performance enhancers, like... mf... how far *can* a human go? 😂

I'm puertorrican and didn't know about De Jesús! I'm proud of the coach for pulling the whole team out. That was the right thing to do.

This compilation is a masterclass in turning fails into pure entertainment!

Me: *Clicks on video about olympic cheaters.*

*Gets a video telling me when and where the athlete was born followed by b-roll of people not involved in the story, sometimes not even doing what he’s talking about.*

Oh, look, all that extra padding of the run time put your shit video over 10 minutes.

Nero attended the games with 4, 000 bodyguards. During the chariot race, Nero fell out of his chariot. The other charioteers reined in their horses and politely (and wisely) waited for Nero. Nero climbed back in and crossed the finish line.

7:49 Alcohol is a banned drug in shooting and archery not because it's unsafe but because in moderate quantities it significantly improves accuracy.

I want an Olympics only for athletes on DOPE.... That would be a great competition!

Drinking one or two beers makes you a better shooter. In Germany we call a beer also "Zielwasser" - aiming water. It is considered as doping and not allowed though...
