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.

as much as people disliked what they said, they're right - the point still stands.

THIS is the angle needed on the disputed throw, because his finger is behind the stone from camera's POV. what's happening in this throw could very well be exactly the case in the other

    Thank you, I understand they are different pictures and it seems like a few people actually see the point I was making and didn't just downvote me because you didn't like my opinion on it.

    If we had the alternate view of the original photo it might just show his finger beside. If we only use that angle they set up then everytime his finger is beside the stone it would appear to be touching it, which is why we either need proper camera angles, 3 of them, or we just let it continue as it has been for years and years.
