I stand corrected, Devans. Never again will I forget Ukhov's name. Coolest dude in sport? Quite possibly.
So for anyone who missed it, yesterday Devans actually lost his singlet halfway through the competition, took a key jump wearing a floppy oversized t-shirt, eventually borrowed someone else's shirt for the win, thought about going for the Olympic record, but got too annoyed at photographers wanting to take his picture. Prior to this--as Devans reminds us--Ukhov's most memorable moment was the time he tried to compete right after his girlfriend dumped him, drank vodka between every jump, and produced one of the most epic final attempts in athletics history (see video above).
Thanks again, Devans.
