The Canadian bobsled team failed to medal in the two-man bobsled race, but the team is still coming out of Sochi as one of the most popular teams due to their epic beards and shirtless photo.

Some reported that the photo was a way for the team to take a stance against Russia’s anti-gay laws prior to the opening of the Sochi Olympics, but, in fact, the team had to disrobe for an Olympic weigh-in.
