This is Emil Hegle Svendsen who is a biathlete(ski shooting) and his nickname is Supersvendsen.
The picture was made for a magazine called MANN in Norway and they wanted a picture that had a reference to Supersvendsen and Superman.
I saw a picture once of a guy tearing his skin of from his shoulder and he had a shirt under his skin. I thought about mixing that and Superman where he tears his shirt apart and the “S” shows.
We searched the internet for tutorials etc. and we found this http://tiny.cc/bdbabx, which is the same thing. This helped me a lot to shoot and make the picture in Photoshop.
