If you want to see some real-life superpowers in action, check out a routine from Olympian Jade Carey.
The Oregon State University freshman’s graceful, yet powerful moves on the mat pack a real punch.
That’s what lead the artistic gymnast to represent the U.S. at the Summer Olympics in Tokyo where she became a gold medalist champion in floor exercises and an all-around value and floor exercise finals qualifier, according to her school’s website.
Carey was on the gold-winning Team USA at the World Championship and won silver in vault.
She also won silver in vault and floor exercises at the 2017 World Championships.
Her perfect 10 routine at Gill Coliseum on Feb. 13 ended up going viral. She won with a score of 39.750 in the Beavers total score of 197.275-194.450 winning over the University of Washington Huskies, according to Corvallis Gazette Times.
The Daily Baro reports that Carey had scored 10s across the board during three consecutive weeks.
“I was trying not to think about it too much before I went. I just wanted every pass to be normal,” she told the press. “After my last pass on floor I knew that I did everything that I could to do the best routine possible.”
She begins her routine by confidently smiling at her teammates who are amping her up on the sidelines.
“There is the queen,” the announcers proclaim.
She raises her arms and draws them down in a pump then fans her arms out in a wingspan.
“She is primed and ready to get a 10 on this event,” the announcer says.
She then nails a double double leaving the announcers and audience in awe.
“That is perfection. I don’t think you could do a double double any better,” said one announcer.
The two announcers agreed.
“She just drops out of the sky,” said the other.
She proceeds to expertly complete flourishing moves with a whole lot of feminine sass.
After perfecting the previous difficult maneuver, “the rest is really a walk in the park for her.”
That walk in the park consisted of a double flip followed by a flying flex of legs that made her look like she was floating through the air.
“So effortlesss!” said
She continued her routine with artful expressions of movement and when it came time for her final tumble, she of course hit it right on the nose.
And her routine didn’t end there, she threw in a few more soulful moves before ending her show leaving the entire stadium to erupt with cheers.
Her teammates then ran out onto the mat to give her a big hug and congratulate her.
“I love how not only was her routine graceful and perfect, but watching her enjoy herself made my heart smile. I’m so proud to say she is a fellow Arizonan!” wrote one YouTuber.
“Best part of NIL. She gets to relax a little and enjoy what it is like to be a true teammate. She look as happy as winning the Olympic gold,” said another
