The Olympic Games are an international sports competition emotional for anyone, especially the Tokyo Olympics. As we all know, they had to be postponed last year.
This year, the Olympics are in full swing thanks to the health regulations provided by the host city of Tokyo, Japan. It has been a thrilling ride to watch everyone excel after last year.
However, it hasn’t been as fascinating as watching a toddler see the Olympics for the first time. In a TikTok posted by coffeencrusts, we can see young Emmy in awe of Olympic women’s weightlifting.
As she watches the female competitors with her father, she has various outbursts of “these women are so strong” and “They can lift heavy… fings [things]. Cuz they are so strong!”
As she marvels at the weightlifters, she also voices out what many of us have thought while watching these sets, “I wish I had strong hands.” Emmy’s mother, Tina, continues to record her adorable Olympic commentary.
When it’s Jourdan Elizabeth Delacruz’s turn, female weightlifter for team USA, Emmy chants, “You can do it!” It’s these small phrases of encouragement and innocence that have transfixed us all.
The video has been watched over 2 million times, gained more than 750 thousand likes, and shared 38 thousand times on TikTok. Emmy even gained the attention of the weightlifting coach, Elisabeth Oehler, who tweeted, “Why you should watch the Olympics with your kids…”.
