Turkish shooter Yusuf Dikec has become a viral sensation at the Paris Olympics, not just for winning a silver medal in the Mixed 50-meter Pistol event but also for his unique style.

Unlike other shooters who use ear protectors and special lenses for accuracy, Dikec appeared to be wearing only his prescription glasses and just a t-shirt with pants. He casually kept his non-shooting hand in his pocket as he aimed and fired, helping him win the silver medal.

Dikec became instantly famous on social media, the face of a thousand memes.
