You Have the Body of an Olympic Athlete—but Which One?

When we look at Michael Phelps, we never think, "Wow, he looks so much like us!" His 6-foot-4 frame and 6-foot-7 wingspan mean he can swim faster than we can run. But we often forget there are more than 10,500 athletes participating in the 2016 Games. While the best swimmers are lanky and lean, top weight lifters tend to be short and muscular, and first-rate canoers are tall with an average build. Chances are there's an Olympian who looks just like you, and the BBC put together an app to prove it. Click the button below to find out which athletes share your build.
