The Olympics is a scam like college sports City's go into dept after stadiums are built and all the tourist go, athletes don't get paid and medals are fake
Comment from : Nathaniel Lawrence

At least it answers my curiosity
Comment from : Ayah Habib

Pure gold sure would love to take a bite
Comment from : Nigel Magic

Make the medals smaller and 14 Karat At least is gold I knew it was all a sham Like they can't afford real gold My ass!
Comment from : chuck guerin

if a "gold medal" isn't made of Pure gold than it's not a "gold Medal", so calling it one is Lying
Comment from : Zack Benedict

we shuld go bake to olive branches
Comment from : Aaron Drake

i hate that special olympics give out fake gold
Comment from : Rita Walker

Wellll shit Olympics will never be the same AGAIN!!! 🙄🙄🙄
Comment from : MohFZ117

That's their excuse, "its too expensive" brThey're putting these Metals around the necks of the best athletes in the world and they want to go cheap So you mean to tell me, those Olympic athletes are not worth $1,000 to $1,500 a piece!brI'm pretty sure every 2 years the Olympics are making over half-a-million close to a billion dollars in commercials, sponsorships people buying their products in gift shops an other places brBut what do you expect! The bigger the company's the cheaper they getsmh
Comment from : Ricardo Charles

I think plated works But they should be completely plated a couple times with a pure element
Comment from : Craig Dority

can you grow gdp on trees
Comment from : Zulubal Andre

olive brances thay would make them something elts becas thay are so rare
Comment from : Presley Brown

A piece of gold doesn't measure against being the world best in any sport The medal is a token for history
Comment from : Dejeon 01

yeah olive branches, at least they're real😀
Comment from : SONY ISAAC

Probably cause the gold metal would be worth way to much if it was all gold
Comment from : David Merritt

+DNews For comparison's sake, what's the average profit, or profit of the city that hosted the last Olympic Games, in total (ticket sales, food, etc etc)
Comment from : Jpcguy 89

I'd say real gold 40 million ain't Alot Totally worth it Aren't there only like 30 Olympic sports? I know the core are now 25so could 25 medals be really that expensive?
Comment from : Random Smart Stuff

YEAH OLIVE BRANCHES!!
Comment from : iftlatlw

Actually i heard in ancient Olympics they got vases of oil i think not sure if it was oil but they got vases filled something of high value
Comment from : jacob harris

A life long effort and brutal training aren't worth $700 piece of metal? I'd prefer my tax dollar go to these hard working Olympic champions than the lazy welfare parasites any day
Comment from : MyNimbus2000

We should still make the medals the same but bring bake the olive branches that will be made of actual brBronze silver and gold completely That would pretty sweet
Comment from : Donovan Bey

So you're saying that athletes can't or don't have to go to olympics because the medals aren't real
Comment from : Lhexen Rabit

As much money as all these countries throw around worthlessly there is absolutely no reason these medals aren't made of pure gold, pure silver, and pure copper Its just more greed for the companies and countries 40mill isn't exactly a large sum to the countries anymore
Comment from : Zeroplanetz

Yes it bothers me I can't believe that the host nations couldn't afford gold or silver Make them silver dollar size That would not only show class
Comment from : Pedro Navajas

I want real gold
Comment from : Old Prophet

Well as part of my personal boycott of the winter Olympics due to Russia's bigoted policies I try not to watch anything related to it but this video was interesting
Comment from : The Review Ninja

they should do both
Comment from : bear

Next your'e going to tell me that our pennies aren't made of copper, our nickles, dimes and quarters aren't made of silver and our dollars aren't exchangeable for gold :-O
Comment from : Matthew Bartke

Another way to look at it -- substituting in cheaper metal (though silver is still a precious metal) allows for bigger, flashier metals, than they could afford to make if it was actually solid gold
Comment from : Jared Blackburn

The athletes deserve gold Real gold Their training was real, their sacrifices were real, their gold should be real
Comment from : CoonEyed

Trace is the best, coolest guy
Comment from : Passiveagression

Strong Bad!
Comment from : Alyssa Smith

I think gold/silver/bronze olive branches would look cooler It'd be kinda hard to wear them if you won more than one though
Comment from : Tiffany

I'd have been shocked if they were solid gold-how silly On the other hand, I would NOT have been shocked if those at Sochi were plastic The Russion military has long been nuts about medals, and for about thirty years has used plastic
Comment from : C Stuart Hardwick

I wore an Olympic medal once It was pretty heavy actually
Comment from : E

Yesss olive branches!
Comment from : Mary Lambeth

it will make me SICK if they are pure gold
Comment from : haloharry97

I heard that the Oscar statues used to be solid gold, but haven't been for many years as well No surprise on the olympic medals I agree, it's not the metal that makes the glory and significance, it's the honor of winning one
Comment from : Wario7793

Lol
Comment from : Estella Vasquez

gold shold be gold sluver sliver and bronze bronze
Comment from : Nikita K

The medals are not gold, silver, or bronze They are gold PLATED, silver PLATED, and bronze PLATED
Comment from : godsfiddler

i won 3 1st places in dancing, first one was more like bronze not gold (it wasnt gold, i was in 2nd-3rd grade
Comment from : 7privet_

OLIVES!!!
Comment from : Bobby Anderson

It doesn't matter since their working their butts off
Comment from : JessicasGarden

I don't really care it's more the idea of winning the Olympics that counts Plus if the were made of real gold, Canada would have about 35 million dollars!
Comment from : noamvb

I honeslty dont think the branches would be that bad They look pretty nice tbh
Comment from : fernandathefeminist

GO CANADA!!!
Comment from : Lazy Lizard

Comment from : visualkeirockstar

Don't care about the medals as long as we beat Canada in everything
Comment from : Bryan Vercetti

Not real gold bummer
Comment from : Amazon Lireria

It's pronounced "moes" hardness scale not "moss" Geologist everywhere cringed when you pronounced it like that
Comment from : monco123

Comment from : Tobbiss

Comment from : George Cataloni

Gold Branches !!!
Comment from : Wilson Martinez Diaz

Olive Branches!!!
Comment from : Sonika Vuyyuru

As dawn goes down today, nothing gold can stay
Comment from : GoodMorningInternet

wow, they actually have more gold in them than I thought I thought it was an ultra thin galvanization to make it like an ounce I'm surprised that the silver metals haven't started to be galvanized also, it might not be as expensive as gold but silver isn't cheap either
Comment from : Eric D

50 million is a drop in the bucket When you think of how many companies that want to buy in to be part of this event At least if you win the Super Bowl you get diamonds and gold
Comment from : jimmielee

I never knew the medals were gold at all, I always assumed they were colored that
Comment from : iKhanKing

Comment from : Pickle430

Comment from : Michael Ansley

Comment from : Jackson Stone

Comment from : Joe

Comment from : mangastume

Comment from : Miranda S

40 million is nothing compared to the cost of putting the games on
Comment from : Didivs Ivlianvs

I was seriously considering going for an Olympic gold medal, but now that I know that there is very little gold in it, I'm now thinking I'll just go make lunch instead
