Spanish skier goes viral,feels ‘really safe’ everywhere in China
Many international athletes for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics have been speaking out loud their exciting and fulfilling life in China through videos that piled on praises for thoughtful arrangement at Olympic venues, depicted their thrill of trying out new training facilities in the venues and learning Chinese traditions such as calligraphy, and their videos have gone viral in China with many commenting that their pure happiness is an acknowledgement of China’s efforts in holding the Games as well as in epidemic prevention and control.
Among them, Spanish skier Thibault Magnin became popular for his video of him making somersaults before lying on his back and sliding from the Big Air Shougang.
Big Air Shougang, the venue for freestyle and snowboard big air events, is a ski jump platform built on top of a former steel mill, which was shut down more than 10 years ago. It is the only snow event venue in downtown Beijing.
Like many other foreign athletes, Magnin is enjoying life at the Olympic village where he can trade pins and meet with best athletes in the world.
“The play arena is so fun and a good place to meet with friends. The gym is also very nice. Probably my two favorite places,” he said.
