In an unexpected turn of events, Olympic gymnasts found a new way to unwind before their competitions. A recent video titled "Antes de la competición (SONIDO)" has gone viral, showing athletes like Brody Malone engaging in a playful and humorous toy challenge that's proving to be harder than real gymnastics.

The video captures the athletes' genuine reactions as they attempt to master the tricky toy. One gymnast exclaims, "This is way harder than real gymnastics," while another humorously remarks, "Why do you look like a uniball?" The camaraderie and light-hearted spirit are evident as they cheer each other on with repeated "Oh! Oh! That was close."

Viewers are loving the genuine smiles and laughter, with one commenting, "These gentlemen are too lovely. I adore them." Another user noted, "The women took a shot at it too. Also a great video watching their reactions," highlighting that the fun wasn't limited to just the male athletes.

The video even sparked a bit of admiration for Brody Malone, with one viewer commenting, "Jeez, is Brody Malone handsome." Another added, "Love the genuine smiles on most of their faces," showcasing the joy this simple toy brought to these elite athletes.

Among the comments, there were plenty of laughs about the playful competition. One user wrote, "You almost KO'd Jerry," while another found humor in the athletes' determination: "I like the transition from 'Task failed successfully' to 'Let me see if I can do that again on purpose.'"

The toy itself has piqued curiosity, with one viewer asking, "Where do I buy this?" and another wondering, "I wonder if this toy comes in various colours? Just so those wearing blue clothes can feel special because they match."

Overall, this delightful video shows that even Olympic athletes need a break and a bit of fun to relieve the pressure. As one comment aptly put it, "Right toy game to soothe the pressure." It’s a touching reminder that sometimes, the simplest games can bring the most joy, even on the grand stage of the Olympics.

I love that they're at the actual Olympics and still get absolutely pumped if they successfully make the toy guy land.
