Whirl around "sleeping bag"
World Championships: Allegations of fraud against German ski jumper
Excitement at the Nordic World Ski Championships in Trondheim: Poland has made serious allegations of fraud against German ski jumper Karl Geiger!
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen The current season has not gone according to plan for Karl Geiger so far. But at the season highlight in Trondheim, of all places, the 32-year-old suddenly showed up: In fourth place, he narrowly missed out on a medal in the normal hill competition on Sunday.
After the World Championships, however, the German came under scrutiny. There were strong accusations, especially from Poland, due to Geiger's (loose-fitting) suit. The medium "Sport.pl" speaks of a "potato sack" and "sleeping bag" that the ski jumper was wearing. The harsh verdict: the competition was "a joke".
Malysz: "Something's not right"

The ski jumping legend, who now works as President of the Polish Ski Association, says: "Something is wrong, it's obvious to the naked eye. It's very strange!" One thing is certain: Geiger had passed the material check.
