Frank Gibbons defeated Gerd Kanter and is going to the Olympics

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced the first winner of its global digital initiative "The Best of Us Challenge".
The winner, Grant Gibbons of Sterling VA, USA, will receive a trip for two to the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games taking place in February 2010. Mr Gibbons, who was declared the winner after a random selection process, submitted a video to the Challenge site showing him beating Estonian Olympian Gerd Kanter at a discus pick-up challenge.

Grant Gibbons said, "The Best of Us Challenge is great: not only do we have a chance to show off what we can do, but we get to see a side to our favourite Olympic athletes that we normally don't get to see."
