This Gold Medal Winning Badminton Player's Meltdown Is ALL OF THE EMOTION
China's Long Chen just won the gold medal in Badminton and had the absolute best and most wonderful "I won a g-d gold medal!" freak outs of all time. It's world-class, just like his badminton playing. Let's check out all of the stages of winning a gold. (Which is probably what all gold medalists goes through, they just don't show it off as vibrantly!)
1. He completes his final shot like a boss:
2. He's like, "HOLY SHIT I JUST WON THE GOLD?!"
3. He's all, "Fine, I'll show you my abs!" J/K, he was probably just like, "GET THIS SHIRT OFF OF ME I AM AN OLYMPIC CHAMPION."
4. He's literally overwhelmed with emotion:
5. Tears of absolute joy:
6. One of his coaches is like, "Dude, you gotta get up":
7. And he's all, "No, dude. I do what I want and what I want to do right now is cry on this floor":
8. And he's like, "Fine I'll get up but you have to lift me I'M TOO EMOTIONAL!"
9. And he's back down. Winning a gold medal is intense, people!
10. OK, fine, he's up! And hugging it out with coaches:
11. And competitors, because that's what champs do:
12. Thumbs up for total domination:
13. This move is simply called the "fuck yeah":
14. Getting that gold:
15. Kissing that gold, which is the final move in the gold medal stages of emotions. Congrats, Long Chen!
