A bizarre trick of the eye creating the illusion of an impossibly tiny wa🐽ist on a Paris Olympiꦗcs swimmer went viral, the second moment of the games that made viewers at home do a double-take.
by user adamclayton shows Chinese swimmer Tang Qianting lining up at the starting blocks ahead of the women’s 100-meter breaststroke event.
As she stands at the ed🧜ge of the pool, the sides of her two-toned blue-and-teal Speedo bathing suit happened to perfectly blend in with the wall behind her,𓃲 inadvertently making it appear as though her waist was only a few inches wide.
The video, captioned “She’s SNATCHED,” was viewed more than 5.5 million times on TikTok and another 4 million on X, with many commenters cracking jokes at the uncanny visual.
“Paris Ozempics 2024,” one user chimed in, referencing the famous diabetes medication turned viral weight-loss drug.
“When I have salad instead of my well deserved 3 servings of pasta,” another joked.
“I’m gonna need a link for that bathing suit,” said a third commenter.
The video๊ was the second unusual video to come out of the Pꦰaris games in as many days.
On Tuesday, a one-in-a-million photo of Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina in which the medal-hopeful and his surfboard appear to be hovering several feet above the ocean sprea𝓡d like wildfire.
