A lot of athletes had to get real bed mattresses shipped to them because they couldn’t sleep well and 2 athletes have already blamed those bed conditions for their performance

[@tedmink7568]

Can you give the 'lot' as a % of 10500?

[@Official-OpenAI]

Cardboard isn't the problem. It's the size, and quality of the mattresses.

[@AAAAAA-tj1nq]

@chatgpt and why cant they provide proper beds? China 2022 olympics provided top notch adjustable beds to all athletes

[@Official-OpenAI]

@@AAAAAA-tj1nq That's generous for China to do so. But with a budget, they'd rather use recyclable cardboard. Even so they are cutting some sports off the Olympics 2028 because of the cost.

[@AAAAAA-tj1nq]

@@Official-OpenAI actually the cost cutting is so extreme that a lot of athletes have to get real bed mattresses shipped to them. also bed frame can be reused. the cost cutting is crazy.

[@FerandesFera]

"First we will try them" "Breaks emeaditly as he lays down"😂

[@sunflower_shorts]

I understand why nobody wants to host the Olympics - it’s too expensive. Paris spent something like 9 billion dollars to build the Olympic Village and all the infrastructure necessary to host all of the events. It’s only for two weeks, then everything has to be taken apart and recycled somehow.

[@eddiebellamy7605]

4 weeks if you count the paralympics that are about to start

[@alexbronynerfman]

It's still a cardboard bed that looks comfortable for some of the athletes.

[@kylepasta]

From Africa maybe

[@Stephenwongdirectimaging]

Room is without air condition during summer time how to sleep ? Only d add supply a fan 😅😅

[@tedmink7568]

Hydronic Cooling System was installed

[@___beyondhorizon4664]

The Today's Show 2 anchors test it by laying side by side together 😱 It's strange to have cardboard beds, AKA, anti hookup beds in the city famous for rendezvous 😅

[@Baked_Potato1996]

I like how the Olympians will be sleeping in some kind of migrant shelter

[@APK81]

Nothing wrong in it...

[@moocha1590]

Shelter is better 😂

[@maestrosyrex]

Leave it to France to have a 5m² room with 2 cardboard beds facing each other with nothing but a shelf and a fan... Hey Parisians, ever heard of "PRIVACY"

[@andrewwalker4066]

Why do two people have to share a room

[@___beyondhorizon4664]

Google housing crisis in Paris

[@marilucastillo7777]

Love these shares!

[@heavymetalbanshee]

I don't think an olympian should have to sleep on a cardboard bed or share a room with another person for christ sake. If you want someone on top of their game they need to sleep... Are they not allowed to book a hotel? Because that's what they id be doing

[@TH-lu9du]

They are actually. Or bringing in their own ACs

[@kevinsealschott1090]

The US basketball teams stayed in a hotel

[@tedmink7568]

Sharing a room is common across all Olympics and sports in general. Building 10000+ rooms is crazy.

[@thomasdiaz8591]

Bro the frame is not even plastic

[@楊過的爹]

这床也太窄了吧，晚上翻身会不会掉地上？

[@PrinceDisneyFanTV]

This is impressive! I love it!

[@scratchybongvt]

“The famous Tokyo 2020 beds” Or should I say… infamous?

[@jamesaaronmanarang]

Love it!!❤️🇵🇭

[@Wonyoungsimm_Wonyy]

Hello

[@Rosinfiend]

Most athletes got hotel rooms because of this dumb bed

[@AmyLee-tp9we]

Thanks for sharing but I hope the athletes from my country are at a comfy Airbnb

[@APK81]

They are not here for a beauty pageant

[@eastern2western]

China gave all of the athletes adjustable beds.

[@rixcampbell1713]

Well Paris 2024’s theme is to go green and make use of green energy, so kudos to them for utilizing products that helps save money and help the environment

[@Jonas-Savimbi-]

I’d rather reap the benefits of capitalism than pretend I live in a third world country

[@MarkSmithhhh]

Lol, yeah, a lot of them are just leaving and going to a hotel

[@Eagle-gl7bq]

Olympic is a sports event, whatever concepts or culture the organizer want to accommodate into the event, shouldn’t that the Olympians’ comfort be prioritized?

[@margaretgraham8239]

Are the blankets being given to the athletes?

[@eagleswings159]

at least a few modules, extendable & firmness

[@osvaldosolis2750]

Recycled !?!😂😂😂😂

[@jedikaren8112]

That looks awful to sleep on.

[@boardcertifiable]

I'm sure some chiropractor is going to make alot of money after this. 😂

[@Yougurt-oz1wk]

Who support this kind of bed should sleep on it every night in their entire life.😢

[@inunegizu]

Please tell about the mattress. If they fell too firm they can turn over the mattress. This mattress is double typed mattress.

[@sammo8428]

Looks like budget olympics, 😂

[@monp.4903]

An Italian gold medal winner slept at the park rather than his athlete village bed. It was uncomfortable, it was hot, it was noisy. 👎👎👎

[@sukriti2833]

Instead of two separate beds they should join the both to make one comfortable bed...

[@oceant1457]

So funny that some of the bad parts of the 2024 Olympics is what unites the world -Cardboard anti ‘nasty’ bed -Dirty Seine -Netherlands beach volleyball player (look it up!) And probably more I forgot Hey at least we got a cool Turkish guy

[@Eagle-gl7bq]

No air-condition is a big no-no, and the bed is too narrow.

[@GlobeTrek_ExplorerAviation]

Do they get to keep the blankets?

[@francisnguyen6349]

Yes!

[@ChaFromBFA]

A/C must be added, imagine taking a rest with no fans nor air-conditioners

[@embryon1900-g4g]

There is a hydronic coolong system.

[@anthonywilson9268]

Card board toddler beds nice.

[@kkanchana100]

Where is emily in paris to check out beds

[@eagleswings159]

if unhappy, perhaps more feedback could have been given in tokyo so could be improved for paris ...two cents

[@roycedizon8630]

No Curtain No Privacy

[@СергейС-к8д]

Далеко вам до олимпиады Сочи 2014 .....

[@anatolepa1306]

Yup, this is way better

[@sourlikefunkee]

So they use cardboard beds to reduce the carbon footprint, yet create thousands of branded blankets that are almost certainly 100% polyester and entirely unnecessary. I hope they get donated to animal shelters or to the homeless and not thrown out after the games, this is greenwashing at its finest smfh 🤦‍♀️

[@nori-og6hm]

I understand when I see the comments here. It shows how ignorant people in developing and emerging countries are and don't understand the benefits of cardboard beds.

[@Olerato1943]

What makes you so certain that it’s people from developing & emerging countries? What makes you think they don’t understand the benefits?

[@___beyondhorizon4664]

There's a type of bed the military uses, it's made of metal frames and it can be folded and roll away. It's common for camping. American airlines issued it at Chicago airport when flights were cancelled due to snow storms, passengers had to sleep at the terminal. By 5am, all beds were rolled away like nothing happened, instead of looking like refugee camps

[@juniorteamcanadaequipejuni6026]

so why would you bring the cardboard beds back after you got electronic ones for beijing

[@kaspiangemini7208]

Ppl gonna take those blankets...

[@zenodio3D]

Ah yes, the famous prison cells!

[@Arivva777]

Yeah you gotta recycle those 10 000 sweaty beds.

[@rolmaguiland21]

🎉🎉❤❤want a blanket please 🫠🙃🫡🥰🥰

[@monp.4903]

Imagine multimillionaire 6'7" basketball players sleeping on those cardboard beds. Yes, imagine it only, cuz it never happened, they all went to 5-star hotels racking up $15M hotel bills 😂😂😂😂

[@momoemikomochida8514]

No AC?

[@EmmaHopman]

That's better than what i have 😅

[@ImBackAgain-00]

Lol they trying to make algeria looking bad in Mediterranean games but now when i see what happened in France i laughed so hard... What a joke We did it better... I dont know how they stayed there with all bad things happen its not safe for this players Scarred me when i see the news

[@krsmovie1939]

Welcome to prison cell

[@LittleLoz]

What do you want? 5 star? They're there to compete not have a holiday.

[@santostv.]

You know how much rent in Paris is? This is luxurious

[@NedyalkoNachev]

На тези олимпийски игри Франция се представи като страна от третият свят намираща се във Европа . Ако това е вашият начин на живот то аз истински ви съжалявам дано бог се смили над вас и ви спаси от тази мизерия

[@nloo]

Paris 2024 💩

[@ERa_7]

Poor organized

[@chicca8958]

Mamma mia sti Francesi 😮‍💨 che tristezza

[@leticianunes8715]

The worst Olympics Games of all time.

[@neodownunder3339]

I’m from a third world country and I have far better bed than that😂

[@PatrizioGuarino-v8l]

😂😂😂❤!

[@leticianunes8715]

Uma porcaria!😂
