Well, I don't think it's fake... I think this is what happened with the Chinese guy and Ohno... but Ohno fought him off and the Chinese guy caused a big crash and then Bradbury won... :Q

I think it's fake too. Since it's a gif image someone can just "place" the gloved hand on the Korean guy's leg. Besides, if this really happened then wouldn't it be all over the news?

looks very fake, the brightness of the gloves is inconsistent with the luminence of the overall picture.

They're all men, there's a Canadian, an American and a South Korean and they're on the short track.

US Roster

1000 meters
-Only Ohno competing in the final saw these three nationalities together

1500 meters
-Ohno and Rusty Smith but Smith never competed with a Canadian and a South Korean

5000 meter relay
-Canadian, US, and South Korean teams never on the ice at the same time

500 meters
-Check out semi-finals 1. The top three finishers in that heat were:
Rusty Smith - United States (A non-white-gloved Smith seen here. Also, check out Gagnon's number.
Marc Gagnon - Canada (but Gagnon's number is 315, as seen here)
Dong-Sung Kim - South Korea

Anyway, I don't know what's going on...
