Often athletes get their photos clicked while biting their Olympic or any medal. It was said that athletes used to check whether their gold medal was of real gold or not, but this is not true. Olympic officials confirmed that athletes did this at the behest of photographers and that this has been the case since the IOC stopped giving out real gold coins in 1912. Manu Bhakar was also seen doing something similar. She pressed her bronze medal between her teeth and made a gesture that she wanted to taste it.
