Olympic scandals and incidents
The Olympics are so dope.
Trampolino Olimpico Italia was a ski jumping hill built in 1955 in Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy. It was the venue for a number of events in the 1956 Winter Olympics including ski jumping and Nordic combined as well featuring in the James Bond movie, For Your Eyes Only. Sadly since losing its FIS-certification in 1990, the ski jump remains unused to this day. However the bottom of the hill is used by AC Milan for junior camps.
