Crotch-gate: The biggest controversy heading into the Winter Olympics involves … ski jumping?

Adrian Livelten hunched over a sewing machine last March on the eve of the men's ski jumping competition at the Nordic World Ski Championships.

The suit technician for Norway's national ski jumping team brazenly made alterations to suits belonging to the country's two top contenders after those suits had already passed inspection. Livelten did this in plain view of Norway ski jumping head coach Magnus Brevik, seated in a chair halfway across the room.

What neither Livelten nor Brevik realized at the time was that someone was recording them in secrecy from behind a curtain, someone who intended to distribute the video far and wide the following day. The damning footage shared by the anonymous whistleblower shook the sport of ski jumping, bringing out into the open the cheating that happened behind closed doors.
