She is only competing against herself. There was no pressure to prove herself. She DID THE RIGHT THING!!!!

[Coredance]

She was wise to step back. No one should pressure her the level of difficulty is too great especially so with the "twisties". Many seem to not remember or know of Elena Mukina. She being pressured into performing a difficult move by her coaches when she wasn't feeling up to it led to her breaking her neck, and becoming a quadriplegic.. Sadly she later died of complications... Simone Biles made the wise choice. The "twisties" will pass and she'll have lived to tell the tale.

[armiichouful]

Imagine having multiple moves named after you. That puts you in the GOATs category right away.

[Travellingwiththedays]

I think the fact that she can tell when she is not fit to complete that level of difficult shows how professional and competent she is with her moves

[Jediahbear]

Mad respect for her to step back. Mental health is extremely important, and she's inspiring people everywhere

[wendyodell]

I believe that Simone should be graded just like everyone else. So if she's better than everyone else then her scores should reflect this. Not grading her down for being so great!

[zoilalulu]

She's unreal. She looks like she's just flying through the air, defying the laws of physics.

[Kranammo]

She's absolutely amazing! Its hard for a non gymnist to realize how dangerous these moves actually are. I'm glad she was smart enough to step down during the Olympics. Had she continued god knows what may have happened to her. There have been gymnasts in the past who have been paralyzed because they lost concentration or got lost in the air which is what happened to Simone.

[kimberlygabaldon]

Very impressive moves! As to her withdrawal from the Olympic competition, I'm sure that she was very disappointed that she was unable to compete. I don't understand how some people consider themselves more qualified than Simone, her doctor, and her coach, to determine what she can and cannot do, at any given time. I'm sure she made the best decision available to her.

[dianemarshall]

Simone Biles' hard work and dedication set a new bar for the sport of gymnastics. Simone, you will always be the GOAT. We love you.

[Gymnast_Munyal]

i love how she never gives up and gets better everyday. she has inspired me a lot.

[kimharris]

Trying to do a split would send me to the emergency room. She has defied all bounds. She is a badass for life. When you mess your body up you can't get that back so its wise that she put her needs whatever they were before what people say or think about her.

[irondragonmaiden]

Actually, Yelena Mukhina became a quadriplegic because her barbarian of a coach made her practice the Thomas Salto when she barely had the time to let her broken ankle heal.

This is why it's VERY important that Simone Biles, and any gymnast really, gets to draw a line in the sand and say "No, if I perform I will hurt myself, so I will bow out of this specific competition"

[cathyhetzel]

Her moves are art in action!!! So beautiful to watch!!!

[JamesBond-]

I KNOW NOT MUCH ABOUT GYMNASTICS, BUT THE LANDINGS ARE JUST OUT OF THIS WORLD, WOW

[Deedric_Kee]

Thank you for this. So freaking good and educational.

[enggailpatual]

I so excited to see her performance in Tokyo Olympics but health is wealth 💪

[NatureAndBee]

Simone is amazing! She has been challenging herself and human limit. Her moves were impressive art actions. So glad to see Simone returning to the competition and winning the medal. 🌅🌱🌻🦋🦋🦋

[Beneficivl]

I love Simone Biles, she's a complete role-model. Major respect for her, she shows nothing is impossible. In which case, it isn't. "If you believe you'll achieve."

[AJ-mtzt]

Yes rate her off of the charts because that's what she deserves!
