If you’re a fan of the Olympics, I’m sure you’re a fan of watching every single Winter/Summer competition from start to finish. Look, my mom’s a huge fan of the Olympics, so much so, she records every single second of them when they air–and, I’m stuck without any room on the DVR to record my trashy TV shows, which, makes me angry. But, to cheer me up, there’s always the prospect of seeing some really hot dudes greased up with no shirts on. Oh, or maybe that was just the opening ceremony of the Rio Olympic Summer Games circa 2016. The summer games opening ceremony featured a pretty shirtless, pretty shiny, and pretty handsome Tongan Flag-Bearer named Pita Taufatofua. Now, knowing how thirsty we all are for some hot Tongan men, he became an instant celebrity for just–being shirtless. Go figure.

Twitter loved him.

Now, he may be back to compete in the Winter Olympics, but, not as a flag bearer, but instead as a cross country skier. I know, why does he need to complete in an activity where he’ll be fully clothed? Trying to figure it out myself. But, in all reality, it’s an inspiring story.
