Now that the Paris Summer Olympics are well underway, numerous memorable events have already won over the hearts of people all around the world. One of the most exciting is Team USA’s Women’s Gymnastics Team taking home the gold after an incredible group of performances. What seemed to catch most viewers' attention, though, was Simone Biles and Suni Lee planning out TikToks just moments after their big win. “I want to do the chomping one,” Biles said, with Lee replying, “I want to do the one that says, ‘Imagine if we didn’t win.’”
