The 12 Most Bizarre Olympic Games Moments

For centuries, the Olympics have celebrated the most impressive athletes in sport. We've collected a dozen of the weirdest moments in honor of the games, which start next month. From a shemale to a guy who couldn't pee for his urine test, from a guy who pierced his head to a fellow shot while competing (and still won gold!) it's all here.

11. Charles Hefferon and Dorando Pietri: 1908 marathon. Hefferon led until the last few kilometers, when he accepted an ill-advised glass of victory champagne from a spectator ... and became ill. He was overtaken by Pietri, who entered the stadium exhausted and dehydrated ... and became ill. Pietri took the wrong path, collapsed, was redirected, and collapsed four more times. Helped to his feet, Pietri won but was later DQ'd for accepting asistance.
