90th anniversary
Today, Koba Tsakadze, the most decorated Georgian ski jumper, celebrates his 90th birthday.
While Pelé, the renowned Brazilian footballer, was valued at 800,000 USD, Koba Tsakadze received an official valuation of 1 million USD as a sportsman. Known as the 'Flying Torpedo,' Tsakadze exemplified unwavering principles and a strong commitment to his homeland, never contemplating a move to a wealthier Western country. Nevertheless, he frequently travelled the globe, first as an athlete and later as an international referee or guest of honour.
The BRAMS Institute wishes Mr Tsakadze a very happy birthday!
