Reseña del libro

In 2008, BMX made its debut as an Olympic event. In the 2000 Sydney games, 25 world records and 11 Olympic records were set in swimming. A psychological study done during the 1992 Olympics showed that winners of the bronze medal were happier than those who won silver. In the 1896 Athens games, Greek cyclist Aristides Konstantinidis crashed his bike into a wall and took one from a spectator in order to finish his race! These are just some of the crazy facts about the Olympic games that can be found in this book.
