I was watching his 1976 Olympics Gold Medal performance on Youtube and ended up going down a rabbit hole. I read the bio "Alone" which described his sexual masochism, his love affair with actor Alan Bates, his early death from AIDS, and I wondered if anyone here at DL ever saw him perform, either on ice, at the Anvil, or in his bedroom.

So good! His posture while skating was amazing. And brave too because that night he came out to a reporter who printed it the next day.

[quote]He was outed by a West German tabloid in 1976 and confirmed his sexuality at a press conference after winning his Olympic gold medal.
