James Harkin and Anna Ptaszynski, authors and members of the QI Elves, dive into the riveting world of cheating in sports as the 2024 Olympics approach. They explore audacious stories, like the man who jumped into a car during the 1904 marathon and twins swapping places at the Los Angeles long jump. Delving into historical contexts, they discuss motivations behind cheating, the emotional complexities involved, and how pervasive this phenomenon has been throughout sports history, shedding light on our fascination with fame and victory.
