The Spanish Paralympic Committee produced fake documents for 10 of the 12 members on their 2000 Paralympics basketball team, falsely claiming that they had IQs below 85. With an amazing performance, their 
intellectually able team captured the gold medal in a tournament for the intellectually disabled.
It was soon discovered that the majority of their team members had no mental deficiencies to speak of and their medals were stripped.
The story was brought to light by a Spanish journalist who joined the basketball team to uncover the scandal. To make the roster, it was not required of him to complete any medical or psychological tests; all he had to do was complete six sit-ups and a blood pressure test.
