The strongest fashion statement at the Rio 2016 opening ceremony was made without even a strand of fabric.
Tonga's flag bearer - Taekwondo star Pita Taufatofua - led his delegation into Maracana Stadium shirtless - and shiny as all hell.
The internet, as you would imagine, feasted on the basted athlete.
"He's either hot, or he's a show off." Hahaha CLASSIC comment by @petermansbridge #TeamTonga #AllLubedUp

The sound you hear is your wife running away to the Tongan flag bearer.

Moving to Tonga. Their national dress is a six pack covered in baby oil. #OpeningCeremony
