A video of a pool party livestreamed on a popular Chinese platform drew more than a million views for showing close-ups of breasts and hips of scantily-clad women.

The livestreamer using the handle Liu Ergou, who has 44 million followers on the video-sharing platform, also drew complaints for the vulgar footage and he was banned from posting new content 10 days later in December.

The complainants, however, were not satisfied with the late punishment, the ban on posting new content, and the continuous circulation of video clips of the vulgar party on the platform. They demanded that Liu’s account be totally blocked.

Meanwhile, ski jumpers were reportedly cheating to get bigger suits that will give them an advantage over their competitors.

Ski jumping is a winter sport in which competitors aim to achieve the farthest jump after sliding down on their skis from a specially designed curved ramp. It is said that a bigger suit gives the jumper more lift as the extra fabric acts like a flexible wing for longer hang time.

Regulators of the sport prevent ski jumpers from wearing bigger suits by measuring their body size, with medical staff overseeing the measurement.

However, German tabloid Bild reported that some jumpers have used hyaluronic acid to temporarily enlarge their genital area ahead of the measurement by injecting the substance into a silicone condom-like sheath worn inside the suit.

During the measurement, the cheater gets more surface area in the groin area because of the bigger size,” New York Post (NYP) reports.

Norwegian ski jumper Halvor Egner Granerud debunked the report in an interview with Dagbladet. He called the idea of genital manipulation “completely absurd” and said he had never heard of such a practice, according to NYP.
