You won't believe this - skateboarding legend Andy Macdonald is aiming to compete in the Olympics at the age of 50! You know, the guy who's been killing it at the X Games, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater games, and even made appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

Macdonald is dead set on becoming the oldest skateboarder to compete in the Olympics. Crazy, right?

He's even joined the Great Britain National Team and is going all in to qualify for the upcoming Paris Olympics.

Despite the challenge, Macdonald says this isn't a comeback but a continuation of his lifelong passion.

He's all about the discipline as an athlete, and his success train is totally inspiring of all the OG skate heads around the world.
