Oscar Pistorius: A First for the Olympics

Oscar Pistorius is the first double amputee to compete in the track and field events at the Olympics.  Oscar didn't qualify in the "A" categories - by which a certain time will get you into the Olympics, but the South African Olympic committee picked him for their team in the 400 and the 4x400 relay.
.
Oscar lost his legs below the knee when he was 11 months old due to a bone defect.
.
It will be a great game for him, and everybody he represents.
.
I know these pictures are kind of "cute nakid guy" pics - but I think it is only fair to objectify him the same as other hot athletes.
