An Athlete Has Shat Himself During The 50km Walk Race

French athlete Yohann Diniz has shit all over the Olympics. Literally.

Diniz, who is currently competing in the 50km walk race in Rio, shit himself 15km into the race, covering his upper thighs in his dinner.

Eagled-eyed viewers spotted the mess the Frenchman made after cameras focused on him, and fair play to him, he's soldiering on.

French newspaper L'Equipe reported that he had stomach problems leading up to the race, outlining his dedication because of his decision to still compete.

There's a few reasons this could benefit the athlete greatly. Firstly, he's probably going to weigh less. Secondly, hopefully for him, with every release of gas he's pushed forward just slightly, sort of like a boost you get on Mario Kart. Thirdly, he'll want to finish as soon as fucking possible, to get himself clean.

He's reportedly favourite to win the race, and is the current world record holder. The medal ceremony will be very interesting if he achieves first, second or third. He has collapsed during the race, but got back up again and continued.

He is currently in seventh place in the race, but first in line for the toilet.
