Probably one of the highest quality platform finals in recent memory. The Chinese divers, even at 90-95% are impossible to beat. But kudos to Emilie Heymans who not only went toe to toe with the 2 Chinese divers, her final tally of 437 is almost unheard of for non-Chinese divers.

[@locluu8281]

The judges were pretty generous on her score. There’s no way Chen’s last dive got some 9.5s and Emilie got some too. Emilie’s highest dive wasn’t even that good :))

[@fanieli]

Oh my!!! I had buried that stupid discussion for so long... so I'm not going to waste my time arguing about "Who hates whom!". So as we say in French Canadian "Ta gueule". BTW, I got my bachelor two years ago. Does that answer your question? Thank you.

[@fanieli]

Oh... then if it's in that sense... I had no idea that Chineese work that way. In that case, I would understand why they train in such a young age. You think authorities forced them to?

[@zhenwan8987]

Chen Ruolin! Chen Ruolin! She is amazing!

[@vwazp]

roulin's last dive was godlike

[@胡文娟-y7e]

幾乎沒水花

[@safehaven11]

Chen Ruolin only 15 and she is like so amazing. That last dive was extraordinary.

[@safehaven11]

Chen Ruolin beat the reigning champion? She is so skilled. All that training really paid off.

[@trvce.]

Why does the video keep twitching when the dive happens? >

[@WONELl01]

A 15 yo kid made a come back at her last dive like that is impeccable! That skill and most importantly the mental strength

[@leticiamatias7601]

La disciplina de Roulin la hizo ser la mejor clavadista de los Juegos Olímpicos:Beijin 2008, Londres 2012 y Río de Janeiro 2016. Una lástima no verla en Tokyo 2020

[@flywithvicky]

i have no idea why that was not perfect 10's across.

[@jasmin8ter2010]

...that is, if she's even gonna compete

[@kadokkendallkylie4232]

Chen just 15 here.. Perfection by her

[@zhaosta]

I'm 15 just playing HIGHSCHOOL football....

[@mattoni007]

And by the way, I'm not Chinese and neither do I condone Communism but at least I have my eyes open wide enough to see that the Western world has enough of its own problems which we try to hide under the mask of democracy. Anyway, my deepest respect and admiration to every single athlete who competed in the Olympics

[@fanieli]

And third of all, I'm very very far from being racist. I never meant to say those words and I never meant to insult anyone. I'm sorry. But I'll shut up when I want to shut up, not when you want to.

[@fanieli]

First of all, I NEVER said that girl didn't deserve an olympic gold medal, YOU said it. She was really amazing. It all started when that idiot of Edward says that Emilie Heymans got beaten by a teen. Yes, it's a fact! So what? She still won an olympic medal and she's still one of the best in the wold, and that's MY opinion.

[@jasmin8ter2010]

Chen Ruolin got the Au (the chemical symbol for gold). Has anyone ever looked at the Periodic Table Of The Elaments before? You can find silver there too (just look for the chemical symbol Ag)

[@hellowjp]

I see now, thanks for speaking rationally, if we all did, then there wouldn't be a huge argument, right? I agree that Emilie Heymans is a great athelte, and surely one of the best in the world.

[@fanieli]

And yes, I crossed the line big time when I insulted Edward (or if it's his name)because I was really angry at him. I simply was defending Heymans for winning that olympic silver medal. That's still a great achievement despite not winning the gold one.

[@fanieli]

Ok... does that mean we can have a proper discussion without getting nasty and without insulting each other? Thank you.

[@safehaven11]

No Chen Ruolin deserved it. She is a teen and she beat an adult.

[@ShinyHappyPurple]

With the 40 degree heat here in Australia I would kill for a swim in that pool

[@Phoenixbird27]

Terrible quality video! It skips in the middle of every dive!

[@hellowjp]

fanieli, how old are you? You seem so mature, wow, haha...

[@宋大強]

陳若琳”真偉大！令人感動！令人心疼的孩子！

[@xiheartux1997]

@Meeeeee agreed!! I'm fifteen and I can do a handstand hahahaha

[@sykoskitz0]

obviously you didn't read the comment correctly

[@3VictoriaWard]

everytime their in the middle of doing a pass it glitches

[@safehaven11]

Emilie does a good handstand.

[@mylihez]

mexico 4th and 5th place wow!

[@jasmin8ter2010]

Wonder how Chen Ruolin's gonna do at the London Olympics...

[@shipengshu12]

jasmin8ter2010 She got two gold medals in London. Oh, one more in Rio.

[@jasmin8ter2010]

2:02 is that song the Chinese anthem?

[@wongjoe479]
