The Most Viral Moments from the 2024 Summer Olympics

From Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles bowing to Rebeca Andrade to Ilona Maher recruiting Jason Kelce, here are the game's biggest moments

The 2024 Summer Olympics is almost over!

Since the games kicked off July 26 in Paris, many records have been broken, proposals have been accepted and chocolate muffins have been eaten! From Rebeca Andrade, Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles' epic moment on the podium after the floor final to Ilona Maher recruiting Jason Kelce to be women's rugby's biggest fan, the Olympics has been full of viral moments.

As the Paris Olympics near closer to the Aug. 11 closing ceremony, here's a look back at some of the biggest moments that we will surely be talking about long after the flame goes out.

Team USA Wins Nail-Biting Semifinal Game

Despite being down by double digits for most of the game, Team USA secured a win over Team Serbia on Aug. 8 in the semifinal round. The team, featuring star NBA players such as LeBron James,Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant, are now just one win away from another gold medal for Team USA.

French Pole Vaulter and His 'Package'

French pole vaulter Anthony Ammirati set the internet ablaze after viewers speculated that he lost out on a medal because of his "bulge."

After a video began making its rounds on Aug. 3 showing the athlete's crotch knocking down the crossbar — upon further investigation, it was discovered that Ammirati had hit the bar with his shins and knees first, meaning it was already a failed jump.

As PEOPLE explained previously, that jump in general was not the reason he didn't make it to the pole vault final. Though he made the first two heights in the pole vault — at 5.40 and 5.60 meters — he did not complete his attempts at 5.70 meters.

Ammirati had some fun with the buzz surrounding his Olympic appearance, sharing a video to TikTok along with the message: "POV: tu fais plus de buzz pour ton paquet que pour tes perfs," which roughly translates to "POV: You create more buzz for your package than your performances."

Simone Biles & Jordan Chiles Bow to Rebeca Andrade

The picture perfect moment also marked the first all-Black gymnastics podium in Olympic history.

"She's so amazing, she's queen," Biles said of Andrade. "And first, it was an all-Black podium, so that was super exciting for us."

With the introduction of breaking as an Olympic sport this year, one Australian athlete caught the attention of viewers around the world on Aug. 9 when she hit the floor.

Ilona Maher Gets Jason Kelce On Board

Ilona Maher shined as one of the breakout stars of the games, being part of many viral moments, including recruiting Jason Kelce to be a Team USA women's rugby superfan.

In a video Maher shared on TikTok, she tells Kelce, "Women's water polo has Flavor Flav as their superfan, and you are a girl dad.”

"Do you get anything from being our superfan? No. There's no reward, no money, no benefits, I don't think I can get you free stuff,” she continues before Kelce inevitably declares his “superfan” status telling the camera, "I am officially a fan of women's rugby, Olympics."

“I'm sorry my love, I'm terribly sorry,” Gianmarco wrote in Italian on Instagram alongside photos of the couple.

“The fact remains that I heard it slip away, I saw it fly... I followed it with my eyes until I saw it bounce inside the boat,” he continued. “A tinkle of hope... But unfortunately the bounce was in the wrong direction and floating more than a thousand times in the air, I saw it dive into the water as if that was the only place it wanted to be.”

“It will remain forever in the riverbed of the city of love, flown away while I was trying to carry the Italian tricolor as high as possible during the opening ceremony of the most important sporting event in the world. If I had to make up an excuse I would never have been able to be so imaginative," he continued before later adding that if she were to "throw" hers in, too, the rings could "be together forever."
