Olympic skier who repeatedly suffered from ‘frozen penis’ and needed to thaw it out opens up on ‘unbearable’ pain

AN Olympic skier has opened up on his bizarre occupational hazard – the freezing of his penis.

Finnish skier Remi Lindholm has competed in some insanely cold temperatures during his career.

He represented his nation in the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, competing in the gruelling Men’s 50km Cross-Country race.

Brutal weather conditions, however, saw the race shortened to a distance of 30km.

But that distance was long enough for his manhood to freeze.

Linholm’s Johnson was frozen through after just an hour and 16 minutes of being in -17C temperatures.

Recalling the incident, he told IL: “You can probably guess what was on the ice when I got to the finish line.

“It was one of the worst competitions I’ve been in. It was just about battling through.”

Race organisers gave Lindolm a heat bag to warm up his body, including his ice cold penis.

He recalled: “When the body parts started to warm up after the finish, the pain was unbearable.”

The 2022 Winter Olympics was, remarkably, the SECOND TIME Lindolm’s penis had frozen solid.

He’d frozen his penis the year before while competing at the Ruka World Cup.

Elaborating further on the pain, he continued: “It was [worse this time]. Pretty unbearable pain.”
