French Vaulter Anthony Ammirati
The pole vaulter for Team France experienced an uncomfortable—and probably painful—loss after his “package” got in the way of him successfully qualifying for the men’s pole vault event.
The event, which occurred on August 3 at the 2024 Paris Olympics, saw Ammirati leaping into the air to clear the 5.70-meter area, which was blocked by his manhood as it collided with the bar on his way down.
Netizens took the chance to make fun of Ammirati for his awkward moment, joking that he had brought his “baguette” to the event, while others pointed out how the commentators danced around what had indeed happened.
Others, however, were offended at the jokes made at Ammirati’s expense and expressed their support for the athlete on his Instagram page, labeling the comments as “sexual harassment.”
Chace Crawford
Crawford, the actor behind The Deep—an Aquaman parody character in Amazon’s The Boys—revealed in a 2022 interview that his character was initially meant to fully embrace the consequences that tight superhero outfits have on the male physique.
His character, positioned as the sex symbol of the The Boys’ Justice League stand-in, was supposed to come equipped with a comically large penis, a fact that was featured in a 2019 promotional calendar but never actually made it to the screen.
According to Crawford, the streaming giant was squeamish about the idea and ordered that the superhero’s “package” be edited out of the show in post-production.
