Actually, during this event, Yusuf Dikech arrived at the shooting range in a very simple style. His style surprised everyone. Other players including Dikech's fellow shooter Tarhan had come fully prepared. Everyone was wearing special shooting glasses, which help the shooters to focus properly on the target, but Dikech did not care about them. He arrived in a simple T-shirt and was shooting with one hand in the pocket of his pants. As per the guidelines, Dikech was wearing only one glass and earplugs. He created a stir by winning the medal in this style and people are now liking his attitude a lot, due to which he has become a sensation on the internet.

Why did Dikache not take any security?

Many shooters wear visors to avoid glare from the lights and to focus. However, shooters are allowed to wear their own clothes in the Olympics and Deketch decided to participate in the finals by following the guidelines only. Apart from him, Chinese shooter Liu Yukun, who won the gold medal, also wore only earplugs but did not wear any blinder or visor.
