Sir Bradley Wiggins Takes The Piss When Winning Gold And We Rate Him For It

When you think of Olympians, you probably picture people who are incredibly serious and determind. The only thin they care about is winning and the only time you see emption is when they win a medal or lose out on one.

It's the name of the game and fucking fair play to them.

Every now and again, we see a hint of something else in these superhumans. Whether that be a cheeky wink or a celebratory pose. And we fucking love it.

Last night, Sir Bradley Wiggins along with his amazing team of Ed Clancy, Owain Doull and Steven Burke completed the 4km cycling in three minutes 50.265 seconds in a nail-biting race which gained Britain their seventh gold of the Games.

Yeah, we're smashing it.

But it was what he did during the national anthem on the podium that had got people tickled - he stuck his tongue out.

Now, I know this sounds a bit shit but his face is a picture and his team can't help but crack up as Wiggins accepts his 5th Olympic gold.

Legend.
