The gymnastics legend proved she's the G.O.A.T. once again by performing a Yurchenko double pike vault for the first time at the 2023 World Championships in Antwerp, Belgium.

Simone Biles just made history—again—when she landed a vault that no other female gymnast has ever performed.

We would say the sky's the limit for Biles, but that's setting the bar far too low.


The G.O.A.T. now has not one but two five skills named after her following her performance of the extremely difficult Yurchenko double pike vault, now appropriately dubbed the Biles II, at the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Antwerp, Belgium.

You can watch her feat, below.

And here it is from a different angle.

The Yurchenko double pike vault has the highest difficulty score of any women's vault at 6.4. The highest difficulty score of last year's World Championships was a 5.6.

To say viewers of Biles' performance were amazed is an understatement.










The world champ definitely felt the love and even shared a video of the Biles II to her Instagram stories, complete with a blue heart.

At the completion of the qualifying session, Biles landed on top with an all-around score of 58.865. The United States team qualified for Wednesday's finals with a score of 171.385.

After Biles' two-year mental health break from gymnastics, she returned with a vengeance, earning her eighth (EIGHTH!) all-around title at the U.S. Gymnastics Championships in August.

Biles will likely claim another world title in Antwerp, the same city where she won her first ten years ago, on Friday.

Comedian-turned-MAGA bro podcaster Andrew Schulz has gone viral after sharing during a conversation on The Brilliant Idiots with Charlamagne Tha God that ongoing ICE raids were his "breaking point" with President Donald Trump and that liberals were right about the threat Trump poses to democracy in the U.S.

Schulz previously played a significant role platforming Trump, who appeared as a guest on the Flagrant podcast in October 2024 during his presidential campaign, an episode that racked up 9.6 million views and sparked backlash against Schulz, who was branded by some as “a right-wing MAGA lunatic.”

Melania Ripped After Using Event With Freed Israeli Hostages To Promote Her New Documentary

First Lady Melania Trump was criticized after she used an event at the White House with freed Israeli hostages to promote her new documentary Melania, which follows her in the 20 days leading up to President Donald Trump’s second inauguration following the 2024 presidential election.

Amazon MGM paid $40 million for the distribution rights and reportedly poured another $35 million into marketing. The film beat box office predictions to earn more than $7 million over the weekend but will need to generate much more box office to break even.

Dad Sparks Heated Debate After 'Nice Note' He Left For Wife And Kids Before Work Trip Sets Her Off

When a person becomes a parent, much more will change in their life than they anticipated.

But that transition can be especially hard when a person feels like they're losing themselves to their role as a mom or dad—and that feeling is made even worse when their partner hyper-fixates on their new role.
