Sweden knew Canada's Marc Kennedy was a notorious cheater.

So they set up a camera at the 'hog line' to record it.

And caught him doing it at the Olympics.

And it was available for review right there right then. But we can't use cameras in sports, because apparently that would ruin sports, for some reason. Oh, and except when they literally use them to measure stuff like who's over the finish line first, or inside a line, or outside a line, or measure things down to 1/10000th of a second, and literally film every single moment of every event from every imaginable angle. BUT NOT FOR THIS. Because it would ruin the sport, all sports.
