I think we should resolve cheating concerns by banning technology at the Olympics. No drugs, no prosthetics, no shoes, no clothes, no cooked meals. Once you arrive at the Olympic village, it's nuts and berries in the nude until the ceremony is over.

You can have access to whatever technology is absolutely necessary for the sport, like guns if the sport is shooting.

Why can't they just throw the bullet with their bare hands as god intended?

That would probably require some insane bone and muscular structure.

Out of scientific curiosity and for fun, I'm really eager to know now how humans would have to be like biologically/physically in order to throw a bullet with velocities comparable to contemporary weapons. 🤔

Anyone bored enough to answer that?

If you can't do it, you just don't want it enough yet!
