The incident occurred during the training camp in the USA.

In the middle of a pause, it stung me on the wrist. I did not think more about it and continued. But the day after, I woke up with a hand that looked like a balloon, says Klæbo to TV2.

At the hospital, samples were taken before he was sent home to rest for a few days.

The wasp was enormous. I hit it with my hand and felt that I killed it. It was like crushing a cookie. I think that the American wasps are a bit bigger than those at home, says the skiing star.
