After not going as planned, the world’s first transgender figure skating routine goes viral.
Minna-Maaria Antikainen, the first transgender figure skater, made her debut at the European Figure Skating Championships in Finland with a stunning fall during the opening ceremony.
It was an exciting turn of events.
Formerly known as Markku-Pekka Antikainen, the 57-year-old farm owner from Siilinjarvi made headlines at this year’s competition after taking up figure skating at the age of 49.
