Adorable footage resurfaces of a tiny Simone Biles getting upset after falling off the vault at junior competition
After a storybook run in the 2024 Olympics from Simone Biles, an old video resurfaced of the gymnast – showing her competitive spirit from day one.
The 27-year-old’s redemption run has been historical, gathering three gold medals and a silver in Paris.
Now the most decorated Olympic gymnast, footage of a younger Biles getting upset after falling off the vault was posted by X page Historic Vids.
In the 23-second clip, Biles hit her stride running up to the table but failed to land on her feet after the flip. Nonetheless, Biles posed for the judges and stepped out of the mat.
She then proceeded to cross her arms while who appeared to be her coach attempted to console her. Still upset over the vault, she marched away with her arms still crossed.
