Could Debian developer and Catalan free software translator Jordi Mallach be living a secret life as champion Russian figure-skater Evgeny Plushenko?
Recent photographic evidence uncovered by Mika seems to support such a theory. Decide for yourself:
YOU JUST RUINED MY NEW CAREER!
That SOOOOOO tewtelly looks not-gimped
Thanks Mako & Mika! I have cloned this entry in my blog to make sure Jordi’s GNOME/Catalan neighborhood knows the Truth: http://desdeamericaconamor.org/blog/node/298
@poof: if you can’t tell the difference between gimping/photoshop work and a friggin stuffed bodysuit, you really should reconsider making statements about such things
It’s really not photoshopped. Take a look at the link that I inlcude in the article and you can see the image on Yahoo Japan. It’s just supposed to highlight a funny similarity between two real photos — nothing is faked.
This is not photoshopped. I saw this performance when he was wearing that funny stuff. And it was really great performance btw. He is a real champ.
Here’s a torso shot of plushenko I found. http://www.jbmittan.com/plushenko/20309002.JPG
Jordi needs to do just a bit more work on his upper body, and spend a week learning how to skate well (how hard could it be?), and nobody would be able to tell the difference.
