Yeah, heard that. It must be the embarrassment of having insisted on being allowed to run against the able bodied athletes while still getting beaten at the paralympics.

It's understandable for him to have an ego, I mean he's entitled to it being the fastest person with no legs. But having an ego doesn't mean he has to be an ******* too. I see he's apologized for his tantrum though.
 
What a crybaby. If longer blades are permissable by the rules and give a better performance, why not use them. Its perfectly fine for him to compete against able bodied athletes having an advantage, but let anybody have an advantage over him and the violin starts palying.
