PYEONGCHANG, Feb 19 — Spectators at the Winter Olympics skelton track have been entertained by the colour and variety of artworks decorating some competitors’ helmets.

Designs vary from Canadians Luke Cecchini’s scary skull and Mirela Rahneva’s moose to Ghanian Akwasi Frimpong’s lion.

But probably the most popular was South Korean gold medallist Yun Sung-bin.

The 23-year-old was dubbed the "Iron Man,” for his design, which looked like the Marvel comic superhero character. — Reuters
