How to explain Prince Hulbertus von Hohenlohe.

Let's see. Prince Hubertus, also known by his nickname Royal Disaster, is an actual prince. He's descended from the reigning dynasty of a former principality in what is now Germany. He was born in Mexico as a son to Prince Alfonso Hohenlohe and Princess Ira Fürstenberg. So he's a Mexican citizen and a German prince, all in one.

Oh, and he's also the lone member of Mexico's Alpine Skiing Team in the Sochi Winter Olympics. And even better: he's got a one-of-a-kind Mariachi-themed suit:

Whatever happens at the sporting event, we know that he's already won gold medal with that suit!
