A streaker at the Winter Olympics just wanted to bring “PEACE + LOVE” to the world.

The ponytailed man bounded onto the ice shortly after the men’s 1,000 m speedskating event in Pyeongchang, South Korea, on Friday.

As video that Instagram user mhj.kooij shared online shows, the rink intruder removed his clothes to reveal a pink tutu and a strategically placed sock beneath.

He’d inked the message about peace and love onto his chest.

It’s unclear how officials dealt with his impromptu performance, which has now gone down in Olympic history.
