Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese star and five-time Ballon d'Or winner, has shown on several occasions on the pitch that he is not a human but a superman.
On December 24, 2024, CR7 confirmed this through a photo and video from his Christmas vacation. The 39-year-old star, who will turn 40 in February, got naked in the snow.
It's hard to believe that the images were taken in Lapland. In this location located in Finland, temperatures can drop to -40°C during winter.
Generally, temperatures drop around -20°C or -30°C. It was in this biting cold that Cristiano Ronaldo decided to take a walk and even swim in his underwear. “It’s just a little cold,” he wrote to make the situation ironic.
You don't need to be a doctor to know that this feat is not within everyone's reach. An ordinary person would get hypothermia in these conditions. But not CR7.
Who did CR7 celebrate Christmas with?
Cristiano wasn't the only one in the freezing cold in Lapland. He was surrounded by his wife Georgina and his children, only they weren't in their pants.
The star and his wife shared photos on Instagram, showing snowy landscapes and family activities, like skiing and snowmobile rides. The Al-Nassr player published the video of this magnificent stay on his YouTube account.
On his X account, CR7 wrote: « Merry Christmas, everyone ! »which means in French, “Merry Christmas everyone”.
On the pitch, Cristiano Ronaldo is not human
With more than 900 goals to his name, Ronaldo is aiming for the milestone of 1,000 goals. Aware of the challenges associated with his age, he continues to train rigorously to achieve this ambitious goal.
During the year 2024, Ronaldo has scored 43 goals, bringing his career tally to 916 goals.
Toni Kross, his former teammate at Real Madrid, felt that his longevity is not within everyone's reach. But what surprises about CR7 is not only its longevity but its exceptional physical performance.
Thanks to these performances, Ronaldo holds several Champions League records, including the most goals scored and the most appearances.
