“Shocking Truth Unveiled: Olympic Winners Reveal Their Medals’ Disturbing Condition Post-2024 Games!”
“But after letting it sit on my skin with some sweat for a little bit and then letting my friends wear it over the weekend, they are apparently not as high quality as you would think,” added the skateboarded in a clip he shared on social media in August.
Other athletes also shared similar disappointment over the withering state of the prized accolades

“I mean look at that thing, it’s looking rough. Even the front is starting to chip off a little,” the Olympian continued.
“So I don’t know … Olympic medals, you gotta maybe step up the quality a little bit,” he said.
Similar concerns were shared by British diver Yasmin Harper, who said her Olympic bronze medal was showing signs of “tarnishing.”
The diver had won the first medal of Paris 2024 for Britain after coming in at third place in the women’s 3m synchronized springboard diving with her partner Scarlett Mew Jensen.
Fellow French simmer Clement Secchi also shared an image of his bronze medal and described it as “crocodile skin”

“There’s been some small bits of tarnishing,” she said in August about the condition of her prize. “I think it’s water or anything that gets under metal, it’s making it go a little bit discolored, but I’m not sure.”
The diver said she wasn’t fazed by the quality “because it’s still a medal” after all.
The Paris 2024 medals were designed by LVMH jeweler Chaumet, and each medal includes a piece of original iron from the Eiffel Tower.
