The opening ceremony of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics on the evening of February 4 brought a beautiful audio-visual feast to the world, and Nathan Crumptun, the flag bearer of the American Samoa delegation who was not afraid of low temperature and shirtless "oiling" at the opening ceremony, also attracted countless eyes, and the whole network was concerned about whether he was cold or not, and what oil was on his body.
A few days ago, the CCTV CGTN reporter with these questions to Nathan conducted an exclusive interview, Nathan is not cold, what is his impression of the opening ceremony, let's listen to his answer together.
Nathan said the only place he felt cold was his hand, because the flagpole was made of metal and it was minus five degrees.
Regarding the oil applied to the body, Nathan also declassified everyone that it was just the baby oil in the team, and it was their tradition to apply baby oil all over the body. He said it was interesting to say that the point was that he could spread Samoan and Polynesian culture to the world.
