In another video, Duplantis is seen wrapping the medal in a restaurant towel because he lost the special Louis Vuitton box for it in Paris. He has asked the organizers if they could send him another one.

According to the Athens News Agency (APE-MPE), “Manolo” (Karalis) revealed that he was the one who arranged Duplantis’s vacation in Greece and helped him with the logistics.

The two have competed together in all the youth championships and have built a strong friendship, which was evident in Paris. Because sports aren’t just about what happens on the field, but what remains outside of it.
