Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony: The Shirtless Tongan Has Returned

Pyeongchang’s 2018 Winter Olympics just got a bit hotter: The Shirtless Tongan has returned! And yes, the flag-bearer for Tonga went topless again, despite the sub-freezing temperatures in South Korea.

Pita Taufatofua originally set the Internet ablaze during the 2016 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony in Rio, when he went bare-chested ahead of his participation in the warmer-weather Games’ taekwondo competition. Well, now he’s a cross-country skier at the cold ones — but he’s still wearing sandals.

Here’s a good GIF of the moment:
