Kjetil André Aamodt (born September 2, 1971, in Oslo) is a Norwegian former alpine ski racer, one of the most decorated in history.

He is the only Alpine skier to win 8 Olympic medals, and has won 5 World Championship gold medals as well as 21 individual World Cup events. Described as an all-round alpine skier, Aamodt participated in all alpine skiing disciplines in the World Cup and World Championships, and is one of only 5 male alpine skiers to have won a World Cup race in all five disciplines.

His combined career total of 20 World Championship and Olympic medals is an all-time best. Aamodt is both the youngest and oldest male alpine skier to win a gold medal at the Olympics. He tops the all-time Marathon World Cup ranking, with a total of 13,252 points earned from 1989 to 2006. He is followed by Austrian Hermann Maier (11,033) and fellow Norwegian Lasse Kjus (9,435).

By winning the Super-G race at the 2006 Olympics, Aamodt became the first alpine skier to win four gold medals in the Olympics. (Toni Sailer and Jean-Claude Killy both swept the three alpine events at a single Olympics.)

Aamodt had 19 Olympic and world championship medals stolen from him. The medals were taken in August 2003 by burglars who broke into a safe in his father's home. The five-time world champion and winner of four Olympic gold medals, who retired in January 2007, said they were recovered by an anonymous helper over the internet.

Aamodt announced the conclusion of his career on live television with hundreds of fellow athletes in attendance at the Norwegian Sports Galla, January 6, 2007.^[1]
