The only unknown Olympic gold winner in history was an 8 to 10-year old French boy recruited at the last-minute by the Dutch rowing team to replace their coxswain at the 1900 Olympics. After they won, the boy ran off and was never identified- making him the only unknown Olympic gold winner, as well as the youngest Olympian in history. To this day, no one knows who he really was.
