‘Steroid Olympics’ Might Be Funniest Sports Experiment Ever
The Enhanced Games, informally known as the 'Steroid Olympics', allow athletes to use performance-enhancing drugs under medical supervision. While some athletes excelled, such as Kristian Gkolomeev who broke a world record, others like James Magnussen did not perform as expected. The event has sparked discussions about the implications of drug use in sports and the potential of enhanced athletes.
- ▪The Enhanced Games permit athletes to use any performance-enhancing substances approved by the FDA, except for cocaine and heroin.
- ▪Kristian Gkolomeev set an unofficial world record in the men's 50-meter freestyle and received a $1 million bonus.
- ▪Non-enhanced athletes like Hunter Armstrong and Fred Kerley won their respective events, raising questions about the effectiveness of enhancements.
