Athletistic / Olympic Games. Swedish pole vaulter Armand Duplantis, a two-time Olympic champion, won a gold medal at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris on August 5. He did so with a world record, clearing the bar at a height of 6.25 meters.
Many people remember Duplantis celebrating his upcoming victory. The Swede parodied the pose of Turkish shooter Yusuf Dikech, who became a social media star after his participation in the 2024 Olympics.

Duplantis took a shooting stance and pretended to fire a pistol, placing his hand in the waistband of his shorts. This is exactly how Dikech behaved in Paris, winning the silver medal at the Olympics.
