Olympian reveals crazy story of 'whirlpool orgy' that took place in Olympic Village during raunchy Games

An Olympian has revealed the crazy story of a 'whirlpool orgy' that took place in the Olympic Village.

The Olympics is not only a melting pot of different athletes but also a giant sex party.

Well, that's judging by stories recalled by former Olympic athletes, including ex-US soccer star Hope Solo, who revealed the five-word phrase Olympians use to get lucky.

US javelin thrower Breaux Greer, who never medalled at the Summer Games, slept with three athletes every day during his appearance in Sydney in 2000, underlining the adolescent ways at the Olympics.

The Winter Games can get a raunchy, too, as a skier told a story about six athletes coming (quite literally) together.

At the Vancouver Games in 2010, six athletes - 'some Germans, Canadians and Australians' - got together in a 'whirlpool orgy'.

"It was a late-night whirlpool party. It turned into a whirlpool orgy," the Olympian revealed.

Solo, who represented the United States at the 2008 and 2012 Olympics, explained that if you don't have 'discipline', then the Olympic Village can be a 'huge distraction'.

Some athletes swear off sex until their events are done but others make it part of their pre-event routine.

John Godina, who shared a dorm with Greer, compared the 2000 Olympics to something out of Las Vegas.

"It's like Vegas," he said. "You learn not to ask a lot of questions. This is a diplomatic relations trip."

Carrie Sheinberg, an alpine skier at the 1994 Winter Games, compared the Olympic Village to a 'magical, fairy-tale place, where everything is possible' and explained why athletes like to hook up with each other during the Olympics.

"You could win a gold medal and you can sleep with a really hot guy," she said.

"Maybe because they feel they never have to see each other again. It's also about finding something new. Olympians are adventurers.

"They look for a challenge, like having sex with someone who doesn't speak their language."
