“How is this possible?!”

While all teams at the “2024 Paris Olympics” are awe-inspiring in their own ways, one in particular is going viral across South Korean online communities for the teammates’ next level of “synchronization.”

Team China, which competed in the women’s synchronized 10m platform diving, consisted of Chen Yuxi and Quan Hongchan. They secured their seventh gold medal after delivering a performance deemed “flawless.”

Their leap left Olympic viewers in awe as broadcasting clips captured the duo—in such complete unison that some felt “tricked” to think it was one person diving until another angle showed both divers.

Koreans, as well as non-Koreans, praised the Chinese divers for their mastery of the sport and admired the training that must have gone into perfecting the synchronization!
