French Olympic pole vaulter Anthony Ammirati, who went viral after knocking down the bar with his bulge, shared a hilariously pensive video on TikTok reacting to his newfound stardom—and fans are loving it.

The Olympics are always full of unforgettable moments, but they're usually about sports.

At the 2024 Paris Olympics? Well, for better or worse it's pretty hard to think of a moment that will have a more lasting imprint on everyone's memory than pole vaulter Anthony Ammirati knocking the bar down with his... well, the pole in his pants, if you will.


Naturally, he became an overnight viral sensation on the always horny internet, and Ammirati finally addressed his newfound fame in a hilarious TikTok this week.

Je sais pas trop si je dois le prendre bien ou pas du coup 😂 #olympics #paris2024

In it, Ammirati eats his breakfast while staring despondently into the middle distance while mournful music from SpongeBob plays.

Onscreen text over the video reads:

"POV: You create more buzz for your package than for your performances."

In a caption, Ammirati hilariously wrote:

"I'm not too sure if I should be taking this well or not, ya know?😂"

It's good that Ammirati can have a sense of humor about it, because he was understandably very disappointed when his mishap occurred, calling it "a big disappointment" afterwards.

He's definitely not the only one laughing about it now, however.

The comments on Ammirati's TikTok immediately filled up with jokes and double entendres from newfound pole vaulting fans.

Woman Says What We're All Thinking About Trump Deploying ICE To Airports In Blistering Interview

A woman interviewed at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey has gone viral for her response to reporters who asked for her thoughts about President Donald Trump's announcement that he would deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide.

ICE agents are still getting paid during the shutdown, unlike TSA agents, who are currently working unpaid and struggling amid the affordability crisis. News outlets have confirmed ICE agents have been deployed in airports that serve Democratic strongholds, particularly John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia Airports (New York), O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), and others.

Stephen Miller Caught On Camera Letting Out Heavy Sigh As Trump Tries To Justify Iran War

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller was caught on camera letting out a heavy sigh as President Donald Trump spoke at a Memphis Safe Task Force roundtable in Tennessee about his ever-changing justifications for going to war with Iran.

A WSMV 4 Nashville broadcast showed Miller briefly turning his head and letting out a sigh as Trump described Iran’s missile capabilities as “growing so fast” that the U.S. needed to act before it became “virtually impossible to stop them.” Miller then composed himself and faced forward again toward the president, who was seated at center stage.

Video Of ICE Detaining Sobbing Mom At San Francisco Airport As Her Young Daughter Watched Has People Seeing Red

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's administration is coming under fire again over White nationalist White House advisor Stephen Miller's immigration guidance.

Campaigning on a promise to deport violent criminals, the Trump administration has instead become the violent (often masked) aggressors that Americans fear. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) employees have repeatedly targeted individuals without warrants or just cause based solely on racial profiling, denied people's constitutional rights, and killed people in their detention centers and on the streets with impunity.
