The podiums were based on the medal awarding of the athletics events at the 1930 British Empire Games in Hamilton, Canada, where winning athletes stood on top of a podium while the second- and third-placed athletes stood on their sides, one step below. Then-president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), Henri de Baillet-Latour, saw the practice and developed his own version. Instructions to use De Baillet-Latour's version of the practice were sent out by the IOC to the organizing committees of the 1932 Summer Olympics and 1932 Winter Olympics. Shea became the first Olympic champion to be awarded a medal on top of a podium after winning the gold medal at the men's 500 metres event in speed skating.https://www.olympic.org/news/1932-the-podium-makes-its-olympic-debut https://web.archive.org/web/20200804141633/https://www.olympic.org/news/1932-the-podium-makes-its-olympic-debut August 4, 2020 October 20, 2017 February 1, 2025 1932: The podium makes its Olympic debut International Olympic Committee live Martin Gynn 2000 146 Medal table The medal table is based on information provided by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and is consistent with IOC conventional sorting in its published medal tables.
