Meet the 11 hottest Paralympic athletes

London hosts the 2012 Paralympics, which begin Aug. 29. The great thing about another fortnight of the world’s best athletes gathering in one place is another chance to ogle the hot competitors.

We know that ultimately it’s about the events, but a collection of really hot people in the best shape of their lives is just way more interesting. To help you objectify them (and admire their physical prowess), we’ve compiled a gallery of some the best eye candy, er, athletes for you to admire in all their sweaty hotness during the games.
