00:00Good evening, Kapuso! I am your Kuya Kim who will give you the trivia behind the trending news.
00:10The 2024 Paris Olympics became a history for us Filipinos because of the first double goal of a Filipino, Carlos Yulo.
00:18Of course, he also won his medal. Why is he doing that?
00:24More than blood and sweat, our Olympians or athletes compete in the biggest sporting event in the world, the Olympics.
00:33That's why they spread false smiles when they are awarded the Olympic medal.
00:38We are happy because we are proud.
00:40And most of the Olympic medalists seem to taste victory.
00:44They are still excited about their winning medal.
00:48Kuya Kim, why are the athletes so excited about their medals?
00:52Kuya Kim, what's up?
00:56I have been competing in triathlons and marathons for many years.
00:59And these are the medals that I won in my competition.
01:03It became a tradition when a medal is given because of winning a sport, they bite it.
01:07In the past, the merchants of gold and silver bite it to test if it is a real gold.
01:13It is very malleable, very soft metal, and the teeth mark when we bite it.
01:18But according to an Olympic historian, David Walachinski,
01:21he said that the bite of the medal became a tradition because photographers ask for it to look good in their photos.
01:28But did you know that in the ancient Greek times, medals were not given to the winners of the Olympics?
01:32They put an olive wreath on their ears.
01:34This is a tribute to the Greek god, Zeus.
01:37It only became a tradition for the Olympic medals to be bitten when the modern Olympic Games started in 1896 in Athens, Greece.
01:43But there were no gold medals then.
01:44The first place winner is given a silver medal, diploma, and olive branch.
01:47While the second place winners are given a copper or bronze medal, diploma, and laurel branch.
01:52The exchange of gold, silver, and bronze medals in the top finisher of every sporting event only started in St. Louis 1904 Olympic Games.
02:00Since then, along with the start of the games, the design of the Olympic medals is also being waited for.
02:05Just like the Tokyo 2020 Olympics where the medals were made sustainable.
02:09It was made with recycled electronics.
02:11While the Paris 2024 Olympics is currently being held, the medals received by the winners have a piece of iron from the Eiffel Tower, which is one of the symbols of Paris.
02:20But were the Olympic gold medals made with pure gold?
02:29The last time an Olympic medal was made with solid gold was during the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm, Sweden.
02:36Olympic gold medals today are not made with pure gold.
02:40According to the International Olympic Committee Regulation, an Olympic gold medal requires 92.5% silver and 6 grams of pure gold.
02:49However, these medals are still of no value to the Olympics.
02:54Their efforts were made to achieve this.
02:58Meanwhile, to find out the trigger behind the viral news or tweet, just comment with the hashtag
03:03Always remember, the important thing is to know.

06:57because I'm really thankful for him that he was translating all day.
07:02Miguel was so excited that he wanted to call Isabel Ortega.
07:07I'm so sad. Someone's calling.

07:13But if you ask Nancy who her favorite runner is.
07:17Angel. I think Angel was really athletic.
07:21And she was very funny and I really loved her bubbliness.
07:25And yeah, she was one of my favorite runners.
07:29And it looks like the feeling is mutual.
07:32It's nice to be cute.
07:34Nancy is also excited to return to the Philippines.
07:38They welcomed me with a big hug.

07:55She said her favorite is chicken adobo and sinigang.
07:59Adobo or sinigang. Which one will you choose?
08:02Every dish I tried has always been amazing.
08:05It's hard to choose what I like the best.
08:08But I think it's adobo.
