This picture is edited
Just as all the photos that go viral on social media are not true, similarly this picture is also not true. Actually, this picture has been photoshopped. This picture has been found to be fake in fact check. This has nothing to do with the Paris Olympics right now. The person seen in the picture is not a shooter, but Pongsak Pongsuwan, a Thai comedy actor. This photo is taken from the Thai show Ching Roi Ching Lan. It has been cropped from the same photo and placed with the background of Paris Olympics. That is, the picture on social media of people aiming with a gun placed on their back on the shoulder is not from the Paris Olympics.
