Man Who Was Evicted For 1964 Olympics To Be Evicted For 2020 Olympics. -Deadspin.com
It seems that the IOC are to evict a Tokyo man for the second time to house the Olympic stadium for the 2020 games. This seems pretty harsh but it’s being done in the spirit of recycling: why build a new Olympic park when you already have one?
Whilst this may seem unlucky for Mr Kohei Jinno, it is nothing compared to Tsutomu Yamaguchi who was unlucky enough to be on a business trip when a nuclear bomb was dropped in Hiroshima, survived, and returned home to Nagasaki just in time for the bomb to be dropped there too. Some may say the fact that he survived both attacks made him among the luckiest people ever to have lived.
