Question

Did you know? Greg Louganis hit his head on the diving board in the 1988 Olympic semi-final — 9 stitches later he still won gold. Only later that year did he reveal he was HIV-positive; the world was shocked that he had returned to the pool. Posthumously no one was infected, thanks to chlorine + a blood-clotting test on location.
