It seems that the men competing in the men’s all around finals didn’t get the memo Of the first 5 or so routines they showed, I think 3 fell.

I saw that china high bar felt bad for that guy. twice in one routine ouch.

He also fell on vault earlier in that session. The Chinese team was favored to win, but that’s hard to do with 3 falls. But they did manage second at least as a team.

Im old so it feels odd to not even see russia in the group

its kinda hard i m in Korea just catching what i happen to surf across and ofc its dominated by the sk gold medal winners.
although i flat love the energy of Shin Yubin the table tennis girl she is always smiling and in the moment. Ill root for her every time. bronze in the mixed team and still competing in the singles ( as far as i know :) )

If I recall there's not really that much falling at the Olympics right?

This needs an update after the event finals yesterday

Pbars finals: only 1 fall iirc (but pbars is a more uncommon event to fall on)

High bar: 6 people fell. 2 of those people fell twice. There’s only 8 people in most event finals, including this, which means that the two tied for 3rd each fell. Only 2 people stayed on the whole routine.

Beam: 4 people fell and one didn’t fall but grabbed the beam (0.5 deduction vs a whole point for a fall). The one that grabbed the beam still managed to place in 2nd though.

Women’s floor: only one fall, which after the dumpster fire that was yesterday sounds incredible. Instead everyone went out of bounds
