Ever since gymnast Carlos Yulo of the Philippines gained fame through his performance at the Olympics, he has garnered attention from different parts of the world not just for his accomplishments, but for the incredible prizes that came with his astounding display at the Paris games.
At 24 years of age, Yulo gets a lot of wonderful privileges stemming from his victories, causing online discussions and even envy.
Yulo clinched gold in the men’s floor event with a score of 15.000, narrowly surpassing Israeli gymnast Artem Dolgopyat. This victory was significant because this was the first time to give credit to an Olympian from the Philippines.
That victory, however, did not end there. The very next day, Yulo delivered another amazing performance in the men’s vault final, where he alone hit the bar of above 15 points.
This, however, has not gone unnoticed, and to encourage him further, Yulo has been rewarded with a lot of gentleman’s perks. One of the biggest raffle prizes is a condominium unit located at Fairlane Regency valued to be approximately $414,000.
The recognition does not stop with Real estate. He has also received over ten million Philippine pesos from the LGUs and other private corporations. He got a ‘voucher for $20,000 which would cover the cost of consumption from a department store, eating as much as possible from the local buffet chains for a lifetime as well as an unlimited number of ramen.
Adding to the list of rewards is a notably unusual incentive, including unlimited colonoscopies and gastroenterology consultations. This has prompted mixed reactions online.
An X user compiled a comprehensive list of Yulo’s rewards, which includes:
- A lifetime of free colonoscopies starting at age 45
- A furnished condo
- A house
- Over $200,000 in cash
- An iPhone 16
- Free cookies for life from a local bakery
- Free food for life from multiple local restaurants
- Free engineering education
Social media reactions have been buzzing with excitement and curiosity. One X user remarked, “Bro has everything a man could want in life,” while another found the iPhone 16 “feels so out of place.”
A third user expressed a mix of envy and humour, saying, “Free food!! I have never been more jealous. Bring on the colonoscopies if you have to. Eggs are expensive.”
