"Just like my dad from the couch": The 51-year-old shooter won a medal at the 2024 Olympics and became a network star

Turkish air pistol shooter Yusuf Dikec has become a real star of the network after his performance at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. The 51-year-old athlete won silver in the competition and impressed all fans with his appearance.

Instead of wearing special equipment, which includes special glasses and a uniform, the Turk went to the shooting range in regular pants and a T-shirt and his natural glasses. In addition, he made all the shots as if he were not at the Olympic Games, but at some kind of backyard competition. At the same time, Dikec kept his left hand in his pocket.

Sports fans are fascinated by this athlete's manner. They compare him to a cold-blooded killer, or to John Wick, or to an ordinary man who somehow won an Olympic medal.

"Looks like Turkey sent a killer to the Olympics. After the competition, he wiped off the prints and threw away the barrel", "No special lenses, no headphones. It was just my dad from the couch showing the young people how to do it", "An ordinary 51-year-old man without special lenses or headphones, just wearing ordinary glasses, took part in the competition from Turkey", "I was walking by... Let me shoot!", they wrote online.

Interestingly, Dikec is a retired Turkish gendarmerie officer. The Games in Paris are the fifth in his career.
