The Turkish Olympic shooter’s path to a medal has gone viral. He amazed everyone with his performance. Yusuf Dikec didn’t use any special equipment when shooting with a pistol – he gave up his headband, lens and earmuffs. Among the other participants, he looked like an “ordinary guy” competing at the Olympics. The pose proved effective – he ended the day with a silver medal.

This is a custom image of a shooter. The other competitors are equipped with large, sound-proof ear muffs and special lenses that eliminate blur and reflect light.
He caught attention with his unusual pose. The Turk won the silver medal
“So cool, so relaxed“, “Finally a skilled shooter without gadgets”, “Absolute boss” – Internet users wrote after his Tuesday performance.
“Yusuf Dikec from Turkey walked in – in a T-shirt and with your father’s glasses, with his hand in his pocket – and fired a few shots in cold blood at the silver (so that Interpol wouldn’t catch him, he probably gave up the gold just in case) and I assume that he immediately went hunting for John Wick after leaving the podium,” wrote another one.
However, it turns out that peace pays off. Dikec took second place, winning for Turkey silver medal Olympic.
