I love how the girls probably took the guys abilities/hobbies into consideration with the items. Ned with the ball and he plays soccer, Keith is a juggler, Eugene is a dancer and Zack..well to quote Eugene’s mom “he is there” lol but probably something that wouldn’t hurt him if he dropped it on himself with his chronic pain

Watch the try guys and you'll alwayas get that. That toxic masculinity is something they never have shown, and as time has passes they have grown more comfortable with themselves. And their first video was trying women underware so... They are always up to anything, ANITHING and many videos are of them in some sort of nudity sometimes, so the fear went away long time ago xD

@@Mikibear222 ​ @M R This is the current code of points they're using though. The code changes every 4 years and the one they mentioned was from the previous code of points. Sadly, even the organization that governs gymnastics (FIG) hasn't updated their website about rhythmic gymnastics. Maybe the Olympics org in charge of this was given an outdated file by the FIG or smth...also, even the upcoming suggested code of points for after the Tokyo Olympics doesn't have a cap on the difficulty score.

@@sayfrites My thoughts too. Even FIG, the org that governs rhythmic gymnastics doesn't update their website. It's sad :< They could have made a gymnast or a rhythmic gymnastics judge review this too before publishing it but ohwells...

I love how supportive of each other the Try Guys always are

[@abbyreitman524]

I really enjoy the fact that these amazing athletes knew of and incorporated the guys’ skill sets and abilities when giving them their apparatuses.

I don't think I've ever watched rhythmic gymnastics before but suddenly I have an undying passion for it

[@k_tubbs]

Honestly, I love this. They need to do this every olympics. Primarily because it teaches non altheletes about the sports, and shows just how hard but also how fun they can be. I love this so much.
