TOKYO, JAPAN – JULY 27: Simone Biles of Team United States laughs with teammate Grace McCallum during the Women’s Team Final on day four of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games at Ariake Gymnastics Centre on July 27, 2021 in Tokyo, Japan.

There are 10,714 athletes across 206 nations competing in 32 sports at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Then there are the many, many others laughing at their failed attempts at participating in these high-level sports.

A new Olympic trend is taking TikTok by storm with kids and adults posting clips of themselves competing in a sport but flopping.

These videos are captioned “Sad to announce I did not make the cut for Paris 2024.”

Various sports have been featured in the trend, including gymnastics, track and field, volleyball, and swimming, among others.

In this first viral clip, what appears to be a high school girl takes on the balance beam but she goes tumbling down on multiple occasions.

In the next clip, a girl is suited up to do a back dive into the pool — and you guessed it, she flops.

In this final video, a guy is going at the pole vault only to land right where he took off before slamming his head to the ground.

While the internet gets a laugh out of these TikTokers, others can tune into the real 2024 Olympics talent through Aug. 11 in Paris.

The boxing and sports world has been in a frenzy ever since Algerian women’s boxer Imane Khelif forced Italian Angela Carini to quit 46 seconds into their match. This stirred up lots of transgender rumors around Khelif despite never identifying as such.

Now, even fellow Olympic athletes are starting to comment on the situation. The most notable is Khelif’s next opponent, Luca Anna Hamori Hungary, through a post on social media.

The post in question features the words “Paris 2024” and has a woman boxer touching gloves with satan. Many view it as a direct message to the Olympics for allowing Khelif to continue competing.

After public outrage, Hamori deleted all posts that had to do with the situation.
