Isn't lashawn merrit also a cheater

No. he just has a small dick.

On 22 April 2010 it was revealed he had failed three drugs tests and as a result he accepted a provisional suspension.[19] He claimed that the failed drug tests resulted from his use of an over-the-counter penis enlargement product, ExtenZe.[20] Merritt stated that he had not read the small print to check the ingredients of the product, which contains the banned steroid Dehydroepiandrosterone. He accepted a two-year ban for the infraction and stated that he had made a "foolish, immature and egotistical mistake...Any penalty I may receive for my action will not overshadow the embarrassment and humiliation I feel".

Another gold!
 
I was taking a shower and missed the relay, what happened with Botswana?

BUT let's go boys! Glad we didn't DQ or anything....(right? right.)
 
How does someone get gold in high jump if 4 people did the same height? Shouldn't it be 4 golds?

That said, it's still sweet that the 37 year old got the gold.

They base it on how many jumps it took you to clear it.

Clearing on 1st attempt > 2nd or third attempt. They go back as many jumps as necessary to break ties.

Multiple medals only if jumpers clear every height on the exact same attempt.

They take into account how many misses you had at the previous heights. The Spanish lady had cleared first attempts on the first 3 heights. Which is perfect when going to a tie
