Top right is some JoJo shit.

It looks absolutely ridiculous. But since Olympic athletes are doing, it probably works really really well.

One of these is not like the others. Is top right guy doing same competition as the other 3?

They do, which is really more of a comment on society and how the fact that they appear "disabled" (eye patch) makes them appear villainous.
I want more hot eye patches on protagonists dammit! De-villanify disabilities!
