Five 'didn’t make the Olympics team' clips
#5 Vault landing
While Simone Biles is cementing her legacy at the 2024 Olympics on multiple apparatus, including her performance of the Yurchenko double pike on the vault, an amateur gymnast took to social media to showcase her "didn’t make the Olympics team" moment.
The gymnast is seen taking a confident run towards the vault. As soon as she reached the vault, the gymnast makes a flawed jump, the result of which makes her land on the vault instead of the mat. However, after her failed attempt, the gymnast is seen ending her routine with a salute to the judge.
#4 Back dive
Another amateur swimmer has added her humorous video of backdiving. In the video, the swimmer is seen taking her position at the edge of the diving board with poise, her feet attached and arms wide open. She then raises her arms and jumps off the board, elevating herself in the air.
The swimmer turns backward and fails to show the grace and the flexibility required to dive in the opposite direction. She fails to cut through the water with her palms and lands flat on her back.
#3 Uneven bars routine
With the electrifying performances at the 2024 Paris Olympics by Simone Biles, Suni Lee and Jordan Chiles on the uneven bars, fans are entertained and looking forward to the final event.
However, along with these stunning performances, fans are delighting in fruitless endeavors presented under the "didn't make the Olympic team" trend. In one such video, a gymnast is seen attempting multiple twists on the uneven bars.
Although the gymnast displays a stunning routine, her hands slip off the bar, throwing her off to land on the floor.
#2 Missing the hurdles
In a video, which appears to feature a high school meet, an athlete is seen competing in the women's 110m hurdles. She maintains her fourth place in the lineup until the second last hurdle when she hits it and crashes to the ground.
She keeps rolling until she reaches the last hurdle, which she failed to cross as an effect of the fall.
#1 Diver hitting the board before landing in the water
In one such video of "didn’t make the Olympics team," a diver is seen taking her position for what later led to a severe fall. The diver failed to cover the distance of the board to dive straight in the water and instead landed on the board itself.
